Are we ready for another Cozy Mystery Swap? Let's have it on April 9th, yes, that is the same day as the Dewey's Read-a-thon, but it's a normal swap, so shouldn't interfere, in fact, you can give your eyes a reading break by checking on the swap!

Here is Wikipedia's definition of a cozy mystery: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cozy_mystery

Basically, the "sleuth" is an amateur, someone not in the business of solving crimes, and the violence of the death is downplayed. These are often humorous as well. The focus of the story seems to be more on the adventure of the amateur sleuth's attempt at solving the murder rather than focusing on the murder itself, if that makes sense.

Who is interested?

Me too. As if I didn't have enough cozies in the house, I picked up a couple more on my Road Trip earlier this month.

I saw a great book for this the other day - now just need to get my hands on it! Thanks for pre-registering me - I'm in!

Although it may be a bit of a challenge for me with the Read-A-Thon - even a well-intentioned "I'll just spend 5 minutes" on the computer becomes an unintended 20 minute time-suck away from reading!

Got my book! I may be reading it as part of the read-a-thon if I don't get to it before then.
