Ahh, the cozy mystery: a sub-genre of crime fiction that has been increasingly gracing our literary landscape as of late. While the progenitor of the genre, Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple debuted in 1930, recent contributors, such as Jonathan Whitelaw’s The Bingo Hall Detectives, Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club, Kate Hilton and Elizabeth Renzetti’s Bury the Lead, and C. L. Miller’s The Antique Hunter’s Guide to Murder, have taken the genre by storm. This begs the question, what is it that we love some much about a cozy mystery?
