What is a cozy mystery?
A cozy mystery or cozies are a mystery subgenre where all of the violence/murder takes place off stage and usually take place in a small town or a tight knit community. They have an amateur sleuth that solves the crime with a lot of quirky side characters. A lot of times the amateur sleuth is a woman but many cozy mysteries are now featuring an amateur sleuth that are men. There is no profanity, sex, or violence. Cozy mysteries are written with a theme like a hobby, an occupation, or an animal which makes them fun to read.
While de-emphasizing sex and violence cozy mysteries are focused on puzzle solving rather than suspense. The puzzle solving aspect makes these books perfect to get your mind off of things going on in your life.
