I live here in Colorado, and I write cozy mysteries. So many great mystery writers are based here! And thank you for highlighting older series and backlistbooks rather than just the latest books talked about! There’s amazing inspiration here and it’s timeless ❤ serious weather coming over the mountains, foggy thick air through the trees, super charming small towns. So much to love!
What is the name of your cozy mystery series? I have read over 1200 cozy mysteries and I love to focus on older backlisted series and to support indie authors on kindle unlimited.
Hey Kristen! What’s the name of your series?! I would love to check it out!! I like having a mixture of older, newer, and indie and or ku series! It’s such a beautiful state! 🩷💜☕️📚☕️📚☕️🦋🌸🦄☀️🕶️🦩🍩🛳️🌼🌈🌼🌈🌼
Goldie Shultz! An oldie but a goodie here. I love the Goldie mysteries. I have read every one of them except the last one cause I was sad it was ending lol but I do own it. This was actually the very first cozy series I ever read. It's what got me into cozies. My mama actually found this series(many years ago) and shares it with my aunts and me and voila we fell in love with and became immersed in the world of cozies. Oh! And we own all of these. The whole series. Of course!
Hey Pink Mango! You always remember your first cozy huh?!! Mine was Hannah Swensen. It’s so cool that your mom introduced you and all your aunts to the genre and now here yoh are on your way to Ashland!! Can’t wait to meet up!! Yeah!!💜🩷☕️📚☕️📚🍩🕶️🦄🎶🦩🍭🦋🌼🌈🌼
Even the narrator of the Diane Mott Davidson series called it the Goldy Bear Mystery series at the end of the book lol! I just finished book 16 and Arch was driving and a Junior in High School 😮 I miss him being a cute little kid reading in his room Also there was an interesting plot twist in #16 but the subject matter of mystery was intense and heavy like always
Hey Marie! Gotcha will do…I desperately need y’all’s help! Lol Me too, but someone left a message that they stopped reading book one because it was really “risque”. Still interested because it is such a fun premise, but have a little apprehension 💓💙💜📚☕️📚☕️🌸🕶️🦩🛳️🍩🏒🦋🦄🎶🍭🌼🌈🌼🌈🌼
Hi, Tiffany! I like the Kate Lansing 'Chardonnay' series, too, but I get what you're saying. Felt that myself a few times. Still a fun, interesting read! 🍷🍷🍷 Loved the Candy Shop series! ❤ Will enjoy re-reading those at some point in the future. Never heard of the 'Gift Basket' series, but now it's on my radar, and I'll be looking! 🔦🔦🔦🔎🔎🔎 I need to go through all the cozies I've read (ha!) and see how many states I've covered. I've never kept tabs on that stat, but it would be fun to know! Yes, I'd love to see a few videos on your whole '25 in 25' decision-making process! 😂 🏞️🚵♀️🏔️🏂⛷️❄️❄️
Hey Kim! I hope there are more Colorado wine series! Loved the candu ships series…so fun! I’m still looking for it, but someone else commented that they only read a chapters of book one in the basket series because it was really “risqué”. Ow I’m a little apprehensive, but the premise is so fun! Will do…cause I’m desperate and really need y’all’s help!! Ty!! 💜🩷💚☀️📚☕️📚☕️📚☕️🦄🌸🕶️🦩🍩🛳️🍭🦋🌼🌈🌼🌈🌼
@@theBeachbumbookworm The Gift Basket series? Risque?!? Really??? That's kind of hilarious actually. 😁 The cover definitely did *not* give off that vibe! Ok, I admit it.... Now I'm even more intrigued! 😂
I love Colorado! Always thought I would end up there but just couldn’t do the bitter cold after living in Chicago for a year haha 😜 these all sound super fun though and I can get my CO fix! Also, congratulations on 3k Tiffany!!! 💜🏔️
But Colorado has a banana belt! I love it here in Fort Collins. Climate change is definitely causing issues, though, so you'd better hurry over and enjoy it while you can. I don't know that I can pick a favorite Colorado cozy series. There are so many great ones. But lately I've been enjoying the Starlit Bookshop series by Cynthia Kuhn.
Yes to 25 in 25 poll/video! I do the same, I just put where the book is set when I log my book I'm reading. At the end of the month I will update my Roadtrip list. I love the Goldy Bear series! That was one of the first cozy series I read back in the 90s. I read the as they came out. The Knitting Mystery series by Maggie Sefton is set in Co. It's a great series. I still check to see if maybe a new one has come out. I refuse to believe it's over. Oh I love your Grandma had a slumber party!
I really loved this series. I felt the writing was top notch. Also, I enjoy finding a series that is already published with multiple books because if I enjoy it, I want to keep reading and not have to wait a year for the next one to come out.
Hello, Tiffany! Loved this video! These are a few more Colorado series in my TBR list: Cat Latimer series (Lynn Cahoon - Aspen Hills, CO); Corgi series (Mildred Abbott - Estes Park, CO) & Maggie and Miss Fancypants series (Aleska Baxter - Baker Valley, CO). Let me know what you think... Take care!
Hey Humberta!! Oh yeah those are some good ones! I read the first Cat Latimer this year on my 24 to start on 2024. Enjoyed. I just read # 2 in the cozy corgi series and loved both of the first two…may put on my SAS list. I’ve never heard of the last one, but will check it out!! Ty!! 🩷💜💚☕️📚☕️📚☕️🦩🌸🕶️🍩🛳️🦋🦄🍭🌼🌈🌼🌈🌼
Love this road trip idea!!!❤. Have you done MI yet?? One of my daughters did a state challenge last year, reading a book set in each of the 50 states!!😮, but not all cozies.
I started the gift basket series but only made it the first few chapters .. let’s just say it was risqué! I do own all 3 on kindle and I will read it one day
🏔️I read the Culinary Mystery series up to a point (I also called it the Goldy Bear series). I don’t remember why I stopped but recently picked it up again since Hallmark has been adapting it either way Nikki Deloach. The series is called The Curious Caterer. I think there are three or four and another one coming soon.

The Jennie Marts, Take the Honey and Run was an instant hit for me 😊 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Looking forward to next book in series. The other series are romances so not interested in those. Hope she writes more cozies.
My favorite Colorado cozy mystery series is The Christie Bookshop series. Maybe you can narrow down your 25 in 2025 list by only choosing series in states you haven't tried yet or by your favorite themes/occupations or series by authors you've never tried or series by authors you love or series recommended to you the most in your comments. Just some ideas. I'd love to se a videos of your list. On my state list I mark down all of the cozy mystery series that I read to see which states I read the most. Why not? 🏔 🎿
I just thought of another idea. You can make a video of the 109 series as your 25 in 2025 video get feedback in the comments and pick the 25 series as you go along during the year. At the end of the year, you make a video with the 25 series you read. If you're a mood reader, this might work best.
