Cozy Mystery Challenge Completed

I'm so excited I finally finished my first Challenge!

The Cozy Mystery Challenge for the month of September, 2007!

The books I read are:

1. Last Writes by Laura Levine (finished 9/3)

2. Nursery Crimes by Ayelet Waldman (finished 9/9)

3. Carbs & Cadavers by J.B. Stanley (finished 9/13)

4. Killer Blonde by Laura Levine (finished 9/18)

5. Mail Order Murder by Leslie Meier (finished 9/20)

6. The Big Nap by Ayelet Waldman (finished 9/22)

7. Flamingo Fatale by Jimmie Ruth Evans (finished 9/26)

I really enjoyed most of these authors and plan to continue with their series. The only one I didn't care for was Flamingo Fatale by Jimmie Ruth Evans. There was just something about the characters that I could not get attached to.

Overall, I really enjoyed this challenge and will be reading plenty more cozies in the future.
