Contemporary cozies are lots of fun to read. The historical mystery cozies are more fun, I think, because they are a little like time travel, going to a different place and time in the world, adjusting to the characters way of thinking and how our heroes solve their mystery with the tools they have at hand.
Loved that background info. When I first read your books I didn’t think of it as cozy but as historical fiction which is one of my favorites. I see how it fits the cozy category now though! 😀
Good afternoon! Thank you for this wonderful insight of the Cozy Mysteries in general and specifically the "rise" of the sub categories from Amazon :-). I love the The Victorian San Francisco Mysteries books not only because of the cozy mysteries but mostly because it is historical. Reading, historically accurate, the time settings and the "normal" life in these times really took my interest after reading Maids of Misfortune. The "normal life" is not as common knowledge as the large events over the years. Thank you for given us a peek in these times/common peoples lives.
I knew your San Fransicso book were cozies, but that was very interesting how you described it all. Thank you! Jackie
