It's amazing to me how many cozy mysteries are set in Florida. These all look like fun.
ReplyDeleteIt might be concerning, though, to people who are considering moving to Florida to find so many murders there. lol
DeleteLOL Good point.
DeleteLook cute :D
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I have to check them out :D
ReplyDeleteCozy mysteries are so fun to read. I hope you like living in the south! Sometimes I dream about living there when Canada has another long, cold winter. Haha.
ReplyDeleteIt took some time to get used to since I'm from New York and we had four seasons. In Florida, it's always summer. It's kind of nice :)
DeleteI'm not familiar with these books but the covers of them look pretty cute.
ReplyDeleteDo any of these feature Pensacola? I've been making a habit of visiting there recently. Love Palofox street!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if any have Pensacola. I haven't seen any but I'm sure they are out there.
DeleteNice stack and it's good to have authors in your home state.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day and week. A hug to you and scritches to the kitties. ♥
I was hoping I'd see that Lena Gregory series on your list - it's so fun! My TTT
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy her books.
DeleteLove seeing Lena Gregory's series on your list - it's so fun! My TTT
ReplyDeleteThese sound like so much fun, Yvonne, especially Permed to Death. Thanks for sharing.

I'd have to look up a list, sad to say. We have had plenty of great authors, I should be more up on this topic.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the Reyes series. I love that it's diverse and just fun. I haven't read most of these others, so I'm definitely going to take a closer look at them. Great list!
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
Lots of authors from your state. XO
ReplyDeleteThat didgeridoo appears to be a long way from home!!
ReplyDeletefun list!
I am not sure which list is easier, books set in a certain state, or authors living in the state. I struggled a bit!
ReplyDeleteThere are so many fun books set in Florida! The Lucy Burdette series is on my wish list.
