February was a great month for cozy reads, with snow and really cold days.I managed to read five books, all mysteries that kept me happily entertained indoors, away from the cold, curled up with my blanket and a cup of coffee.
This month, my theme has been all mysteries by Denise Grover Swank, who is quickly becoming my favorite mystery author.
