Due to St. Martins Press refusal to address the remarks made by their employee regarding Palestine, I will not be reviewing this book.

This in no way has anything to do with the author. But I refuse to support anything from SMP because of their refusal to address a major issue at hand.

I want to thank Netgalley and the author's for gifting me the ebook. Cute cost easy read short stories. Recommend for a lounging day at the beach etc.

Cozy Case Files, A Cozy Mystery Sampler, Volume 9 by Donna Andrews, Ellie Alexander, Allison Montclair, Carolyn Haines, Hannah Dennison Leonard Goldberg, Kylie Logan, Eve Calder, and Susanna Calkins

This book gives the opportunity to sample various stories by several different authors. Each sample section starts at the beginning of the book to give the reader an idea and feel for the story and characters. There are no spoilers to worry about just enough to decide whether or not you want to purchase the book to finish reading the story.

Thank you Netgalley for my free arc.

I love several authors featured here and was excited to get a glimpse of some upcoming books. Donna Andrews and Carolyn Haines are favorites. I now wanna be on the lookout for Ellie Alexander and Eve Calder. So. many good choices here. Nothing like a good cozy mystery to curl up with and I don't read them often enough. I tend to lean more towards psychological thrillers but I need some lighter reads in between. Glad to have discovered a few new authors to me here.

Thank you NetGalley for the digital copy to read for the review! Lots of good mysteries to watch out for in this one.

A must read. I love these they have all snippets of the romance novels available on NetGalley. Some of them are amazing. It’s a must have especially on a Sunday or a whichever is your relaxing day to read. I really enjoy these. They never go out of style.

This is a great way to fine some new cozy authors. You get to sample 9 books by some great authors.

All thoughts and opinions are my own, and in no way have I been influenced by anyone.

What a great sampler! All of them sound so good. I’ve added quite a few to my tbr.

Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for these sneak peaks!

I love the fact that we are able to sample a vast majority of cozy mystery writers all in one place! It makes falling into with new characters so easy!

An excellent sampler highlighting new cozies. This is a great resource for librarians looking to expand their collections.

A second cosy mystery sampler, this time with nine different samples. Another enjoyable, free option to 'taste test' a few new authors, or enjoy a new book by a favourite. A few hours' enjoyment over a couple of days of rain and cold weather.

If you like to sample books before you read then you will enjoy this book. I enjoyed these samples of cozy mysteries.

Preview of cozy mysteries. Just enough to make one want more. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an eARC of this book.

If you enjoy cozy mysteries and are looking for new authors to read or you’re interested in exploring this fun genre and don’t know where to start, then this sampler is for you! This book contains excerpts from the books of nine cozy mystery authors from St. Martin’s Press. I am familiar with one of the authors contained in this sampler as I reviewed her book and enjoyed it very much so getting an extended preview from additional authors from the same publisher is a real gift!

If this sounds of interest to you, don’t hesitate to check it out as this is a free sampler available on Kindle. Who knows? You may just find your next favorite author!'

I adore many of these authors. I plan on doing a cozy 2021. #gettingcozyin21. Of course, this is such a great way to kick off reading cozy mysteries for newer readers.

The Devil’s Bones: You had me at sassy southern woman. I felt like I was at Mississippi instead of being east of it! I loved the descriptions and everything about these chapters.

Sugar & Vice: I really enjoyed Kate as a MC. She was witty and sharp. Definitely a character I can see myself rooting for and buying more books to read about her journey.

Death at High Tide: The cover alone gave me queen Agatha vibes, I had to know more. I love old/abandoned homes and coastal locals, so this is already starting off perfect! The scene is set and I am hooked.

The Falcon Always Wings Twice: C’mon. You cannot go wrong with Donna Andrews. A Renaissance Fair sounds like a perfect location, one I haven’t seen many of. Very excited to continue on with this.

Nothing Bundt Trouble: this is the one I’m most excited for. I was gripped from the beginning and I need answers now.

The Secrets of Bones: This is another unique story, that I look forward to continuing. A cadaver dog is something we don’t hear of much, even in thrillers.

The Art of Deception: Joanna seems like a wonderful MC. I like how it’s set up and the writing style. I feel it’s more a historical cozy, which I have never tried before.

A Royal Affair: Another historical cozy. It’s well written for the subject at hand, but the characters seem well immersed in the story.

The Fate of a Flapper: Save the best for last! Another historical cozy, but this one I could get behind. It seemed really fascinating and didn’t have the air to being too historical to lose any reader that wasn’t a fan of historical.

Overall, I loved this sampler! It was fun and really opened my eyes to new cozys to try in the new year! Thank you NG and Minotaur for the gifted copy!

This wasn’t my cup of tea.. It was very G rated. I enjoy some G rated cozies sometimes but, these were just a little too safe for me. However, I believe they are a good sampler set if you haven’t read these authors.

Thanks to NetGalley for Cozy Case Files, A Cozy Mystery Sampler, Volume 9.
I always love these short samples of books soon to come out. I get to enjoy a taste of new books by old favorite authors while also finding new authors to enjoy. There are always several to choose from. From this edition I was happy to find a new book, The Falcon Always Wings Twice by Donna Andrews, a longtime favorite author of mine. I also discovered Nothing Bundt Trouble from a new series to me by Ellie Alexander.
Already looking forward to volume 10.

I didn't even realize these compilations were a thing until I saw them on here. They are wonderful, my TBR list has increased tremendously!

This book is an early glimpse and emerging cozy mystery titles from Minotaur Books. Each of the books seem promising from the sample and I look forward to reading more! Many thanks to Minotaur Books and NetGalley for the advance look at these books.

This Cozy Mystery Sampler is the perfect way for people to discover their next favorite cozy read. Samples include sleuths from across the country (and across the pond) in a variety of time periods and backgrounds which practically guarantees a reader will find a new series (or several since many of the authors actually have more than one series). Check this out, you won't regret it.

This is a great way to discover new to you authors! This includes the first few chapters of each book, so you'll have to buy another book or two or three to finish it/them, but that's okay! Definitely worth checking out!
