What could be cozier than an evening split between knitting and reading a cozy mystery? Even better, a cozy that featured knitting? If you agree, you might enjoy the recommendations in this list. Note: If you click a link, and make a purchase, I may receive a commission. Learn More.

A good cozy mystery hands you a murder with the gore kept offscreen, a sleuth who solves it with cleverness, not a badge, and a small world you’d happily move into. These diverse cozy mysteries I’ve put together do just that: series led by amateur sleuths from many cultures, most written by authors from those same communities. For each you’ll get the first book, so you know where each series begins. Note: If you click a link, and make a purchase, I may receive a commission. Learn More.

It’s a great feeling, right? Finishing the first book in a cozy series, satisfied in the knowledge the next ten are already on your Kindle. No waiting, just a tap and you’re back in the same small town with the same nosy, warm-hearted sleuth. These are cozy series worth loading onto a Kindle, each with the one book to start on. I’ve grouped them by theme so you can jump to whatever sounds fun. Note: If you click a link, and make a purchase, I may receive a commission. Learn More.
