I also love that Clue was filmed and released with three different endings. Different audiences going to see it would see one of the three, making people confused when talking about it if they hadn't seen the same ending. It is a very funny murder mystery film
I absolutely love, love, love 'Only murders in the building'! It's a perfect cosy murder series. And every time I watch it I desperately want to buy every item of clothing in Mabels wardrobe 🥰🧡
I love cozy mystery television series; I recently in the past few years started watching British and Australian cozy mysteries. I would recommend Agatha Raisin, Queens of Mystery, My Life is Murder, Harry Wilds and Ms. Fisher’s Modern Murder Mysteries on Acorn TV. Then there is BritBox with shows like Shakespeare & Hathaway, McDonald & Dodds, Sister Boniface Mysteries, and Death in Paradise.
I would recommend Miss Marple series of Agatha Christie as well. For me it was always the cosier read as the events happen in this cute English village😊 and Miss Marple herself is so precious.
When I was young, I read “The Westing Game” for school and it immediately became my favorite book. While watching your bookshelf reorganization video I saw you had a copy of it in one of your stacks, which inspired me to revisit it a few weeks ago. I can honestly say it was just as fun reading it as an adult as it was a kid. It is a 10/10 recommendation from me for anyone who is lucky enough to have not read it yet! ☕️
☕ Only Murders in the Building is great. I like the modified version with David Suchet of Agatha Christie's "Hallowe'en Party." The ambience is amazing with so many pumpkins. I like the ending much better than the book ending. ocus 1&2 make meI like "Arsenic and Old Lace" with Cary grant who usually makes me laugh pretty hard. The Ghost and Ms. Muir for slightly but (not really) spooky romantic ambience. And of course Hocus Pocus 1&2 are hilarious. Those ladies have such great comedic timing.
I was so excited to find your channel!! I love cozy mysteries and he watched them for awhile. Father Brown mysteries and ones like that. I am always looking for good mysteries to read. Thank you!! ☕
Two of my favourite cozy mystery authors are Joanne Fluke and Laura Childs. Joanne's Hannah Swenson series is great, Hannah is a baker, owns her own cookie shop. I love the recipes that are always included. Laura Childs has a few series, but the two I like ate The Scrapbooking Mysteries set in New Orleans. The main character owns a craft shop, her best friend owns a voodoo shop. There are recipes but also crafting tips. The other series is The Teashop Mysteries set in Charleston. As the name suggests the main character owns a Teashop. Again there are recipes but also tips on how to throw different types of tea parties. I honestly believe you can not go wrong reading these books.
Antony Horowitz is still my go-to for murder mysteries (cosy and others). Funnily enough, when I was a child, he wrote children's books, but now mostly writes murder mysteries. He has also written several episodes for Midsummer Murders and is a great crime writer in the style of Agatha Christie.
The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle was really unique and is definitely great autumn vibes. Currently reading Babel because ya girl loves dark academia ☕️
I'm SO excited to start Babel. I want to finish with my Halloween books first. I just dyed my hair a chocolate brown and got some gold rimmed glasses. I now have the ideology "If it's not dark academia, I don't want it" haha
The best murder mystery cozy movie is The Thin Man with Myrna Loy and William Powell. It takes about 15 minutes....so fun, funny, and many actors and actresses favorite movies of all time. Classic
Oh I absolutely love cosy mysteries (in all forms). Lexi I am loving your videos with recommendations for books but also movies, shows etc. You really do bring the best vibes to the suggestions. 🍂🎃
I love cozy mysteries! I would suggest the Aunt Dimity cozy mystery book series. I am also a huge fan of Agatha Christie and would suggest the BBC series Miss Marple, both the newer and older versions, and any David Suchet Poirot episode as well, they are all amazing. Thank for all the wonderful suggestions! 😊📚
Yes, I feel like Agatha Christie is the OG cozy murder mystery author! And I love the Miss Marple episodes with Joan Hickson and the Poirot episodes with David Suchet.
I read a variety of books but cozy mysteries are my favorite. I enjoyed Clue, Murder On The Orient Express and And Then There Were None. Currently reading Hallowe’en Party by Agatha Christie.
I could watch Clue a million times and never get tired of it. The cast is phenomenal!! The Thursday Murder Club trilogy is so much fun. I can't wait for the movie! 🎃🖤👻🧡
“Pumpkins and poltergeists” by Nyx Halliwell “Curse of the day” by Annabel Chase “Southern Magic” by Amy Broyles “Happily Haunted Afters” Brittany Kelley I just ordered a few more I’m so excited! Cozy Mystery is new to me and I’m definitely obsessed but I’ve always loves the cozy mystery old movies! Cary Grant is one of my favorite actors of the black and white movies. One of my favorites is “Arsenic and old laces” with Cary Grant it’s so fun! Watch that one 😊
I discovered and fell in love with cozy mysteries just last year. I am obsessed now, so this video has been wonderful and has allowed me to add so many things to watch/read to my list. Thank you, Lexie☕🧡
Absolutely love the recommendations. And Then There Were None is one of my favorite spine chilling book. You should definitely check out the show called 'Infinity Train'.
☕️ So many great choices here! Why Didn’t They Ask Evans is written and directed by Hugh Laurie. So good. Gosford Park has such a fantastic cast. Very underrated. The Thursday Murder Club is wonderful. Book 2 is even better. I can’t wait to read the third one that just came out. I love that the older characters have rich inner lives. They didn’t stop being who they are just because others saw them differently when they got older.
Amanda Flower also has a series called An Amish Candy Shop Mystery. The audio is good, the characters are a hoot, there is a little (very very very little) romance aspect, and most books feature a super lovable pig. The mysteries are well though out. If you want to guess who dunnit, you can, but I read/listen for the enjoyment of watching the amateurs figure it all out. My local library has the audio and print versions, so no money spent! Win-Win.
I am so glad I came across your video! I've recently really gotten into Cozy Mysteries and this timing is serendipitous for me. I will be checking out ALL of your recommendations! Thank You!
The 7 ½ deaths is brilliant; for me the end went a tad wobbly.... but because the bulk of the book was brilliant I gave the end a pass. A little creepy and lots of "but what about that?" Moments as you see things from each guests perspectives. But every thing comes together so so well! We'll worth the read!
Thanks for the recommendations ! If you love cozy mysteries and knitting then I'd suggest Maggie Sefton, Monica Ferris, Sally Goldenbaum. I love a crafty mystery.
Hiiiiiii lexi !!!!! The most anticipated video !! Tysm for posting !!! Love you so much your style and your vibes !!!! Will surely read and watch all of them !!! Mystery is my fav genre special thanks for this video !! You are an icon 🥺❣️
I just watched clue for the first time and let me tell you it was absolutely hilarious. I was shocked how funny it was. My cousin loved the movie and talked me into watching it with her. I am not a huge movie person, but I liked this one a lot.
I adore cozy mysteries, Knives Out, Only Murders in the Building! ALL of it. But especially Enola Holmes
2 ปีที่แล้ว +4
Only Murders in the Building is one of my favorite TV shows, so I've been looking for book recommandations that give me the same feeling. I'll have to check out the books on your TBR, they all sound so good!
Lexi, I just finished For Your Own Good, and I loved it, haha. That was such a debacle, and I've never read more petulant characters which I was totally living for. I was amused the entire read, and that's not what I expected regarding murder, but here we are exposing my dark humor. I'm with you on the funny murder mysteries. Thanks so much for the great recs! ☕
This is my first time seeing any of your vids. Your recommendations look amazing. One that I would add to list would be the Southern Sisters series by Anne George. It focuses on a pair of sisters that are that are in many ways opposites, yet together they keep ending up working as a team to solve mysteries. Anne George was an English teacher for many years and the books really reflect her skill and talent :) ☕️
Clue is an annual watch for me around Halloween! 7 1/2 Deaths is one of the most amazing murder mysteries ever. Absolutely brilliant. I throughly enjoyed the Scandalous Sisterhood-it was an excellent audiobook! Thursday Murder Club is wonderful and light and there’s two more already in the series!
This list is so fun. I'm excited to read some of these : Knives Out, Enola Holmes, Greenglass House, Finlay Donovan Is, The Secret Book and Scone Society. Thank you!
What a delicious list! Personally, I found by chance on amazon kindle: Murder on Deck 9 by Lorenzo Pagani: This is a classic murder mystery in the old school "Agatha Christie" sense. The author does a great job of pulling you in, keeping the pages turning even as your mind is simultaneously processing the new information and trying to figure out "whodunnit?" The Swiss detective remembered me a lot Poirot!
☕️ Loved The Shady Hollow Mysteries! Loved Knives Out! Agatha Christie is the Queen of Crime hands down & some of these are definitely getting added to my list.
Omg your mug is EVERYTHING!!!! I've also added literally all the movies/series you mentioned because they all sounded fantastic. I have had The Murder on the Orient Express on my shelf for over a year and I feel like I NEED to read it, since she's THE QUEEN of murder mysteries. ☕☕☕
My favorite cozy mystery is right up your alley Lexi! I love the Vampire Knitting Club by Nancy Warren. Get series set in Oxford. There is a spin off of it Vampire books club and Vampire knitting club Cornwall. I can't wait to start the bookclub one.
I loved the movies Clue and Knives Out, they were so much fun to watch. I have read Finlay Donavan is Killing It earlier this year and I thought it was awesome. I could not put it down. I am hoping to read book 2 over the holidays. I absolutely love The Inheritance Games. I just started book 3 today. I can't wait to see how this series wraps up. I have Crime and Poetry and The Secret Book and Scone Society in my TBR stack. So many great books to read right now, I am going to need a very large mug for my tea so I can read to my hearts content. ☕
Thank you so much for all the fabulous recommendations that I haven’t already heard of. Going to start looking for some of those books now and get my cozy on. ☺️☕️
I’d also add the two recent remakes of Agatha Christie movies - Murder on the Orient Express and Murder on the Nile! Great recommendations in this video! Thank you!
I recommend “See How They Run” for cozy mystery movies, it’s similar to “The Grand Budapest Hotel”. Another movie that’s about to come out that seems cozy and is a who dunnit is “Amsterdam”. 🥰
Loved this video so much! ☕ One of my favorite comfort reads is a cozy mystery series called The Tea Shop Series by Laura Childs. It follows a woman who owns a tea shop in the historic district of Charleston, SC - and she's a bit of an amateur sleuth! 🕵️♀️ It's super cozy and atmospheric! I've been reading these books for almost 15 years!
All three of the Thursday murder club books are AMAZING! The first 2 audiobooks are wonderful. They changed the narrator and I read the last in hardcover because I don't like the new narrator but the books are so funny and well written.
I freakin' love Clue. Also, my first-choice board game. I have Golden Girls Clue and you try to figure out who ate the last piece of cheesecake. So there's no murder if you are playing with kiddos and, I mean... Golden Girls. ♥☕
Since I know you love hats and are starting to get more into cozy mysteries I think you will like the Hat shop mystery series by Jenn McKinlay first book is named cloche and Dagger. Jenn McKinlay also has a library series and the first book is books can be deceiving! I couldn’t put down the hat shop series and I’m just now starting the library series!
Clue is the best! It's my favourite boardgame too. I enjoyed The Afterparty on Apple TV+ too. Gosford Park is also great! Great selections for both tv/film & books! I binge read/listened to The Inheritance Games & Hawthorne Legacy, and ordered all 3 books when The Final Gambit dropped. ☕️
If you’re looking for a unique Cozy Murder Mystery, if you hadn’t already read or seen it, I got this fun one called Shady Hollow by Juneau Black. There’s 3 books in the series so far and it’s basically if you had Agatha Christie write a spin-off series for The Wind In The Willows world. A lady fox reporter investigates the murder of a cranky old toad and discovers SO MUCH small town secret- HOLY SHOOT, I WAS JUST TALKIN ABOUT THAT!!! Sorry I didn’t wait till you was done talkin, I just really love it so far and I been dying to share it. ☕️
If nothing else I am hooked on all your recommendations. Have read many already. Have others on shelf to be read 📚 and am always looking for other good reads. ☕️ and or tea 🍵 go well with reading 📚 always. A scone Or cookie 🍪 is always good too! I appreciate 🙏🏻 💛 you so much!
☕️Omg I feel like I need to rewatch Knives Out and Enola Homes before their sequels come out! I also loved those two Agatha Christie books and am wondering which would be good to read next- she has so many books!
I loved this! I am a fan of cozy mysteries myself and still found some new ones to add to my TBR My favorite series I’ve read is the Coffeeshop mystery series by Cleo Coyle. Perfect for a coffee lover 😉
My local bookstore lets you put books on hold and then pay on collections and you better believe my daughter and I are going to tuck into greenglass house once we’re done with our current read ❤thank you!
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if you’ve never had one consider this your time to try a London fog. It is by far the coziest comforting drink out there. It’s earl gray tea, milk/plant based milk, and vanilla syrup. You can order it from any cafe it make it easily at home and year after year it’s my absolute favorite, even over pumpkin spice
Lexi, your videos make my days everytime ☕ I absolutely love your energy, you have a very magical soul and I think the book community agrees with me when I say you're a light to us 🍂🧡thank you!!
I just bought The Scandalous Sisterhood Prickwillow Place, I am looking forward to reading it I have seen it all over the book channels I follow. The Amanda Flower Crime and Poetry is fabulous! I have read that whole series and it was the first Cozy Mystery series I read and Amanda Flower became my favorite author! She has so many different series (I have read almost all of them) that's why I like her so much. When you get a chance read the whole series it is called the Magical Bookshop Series you won't be disappointed.....I loved it! Kinda need to read in order for this one because each book references something from things that happened in the other books. I found that out when I picked up book 3 at the library not knowing it was a series...lol...didn't stop from finding the first ones and reading them and I reread book 3 and everything fell into place.
Love all the movie/tv series recs! Steve Martin and Martin Short are an awesome duo! They were fantastic in Father of the Bride:) The Sherlock Holmes movies with Robert Downey Jr are also great!
If you are enjoying Agatha Christie you should try Georgette Heyer mysteries. Envious Casca/the Christmas party is set at (surprise surprise) Christmas and has super cozy vibes!
It's not a murder mystery, but I was kind of hoping to see stranger things come up!😂 I find the characters, especially some of the parents, and the vibes and the music from the 80s so comforting and homey
omgosh! ty for doing this video! I have a cozy mystery channel, and it's always awesome to see bigger channels talking about cozies! ty!! I LOVE them so much! clue is one of my favorites! I have season tickets to a theatre near me, and the last show of this season in June is Clue...I CAN"T WAIT!! I wanted to give you a couple of really funny cozies: Miss.fortune series by Jana Deleon Sophie Kimball by J.C. Eaton Poppy McAllister by Libby Klein Jaine Austen by Laura Levine (funniest, but humor is not for everyone-can be very self deprecating) I LOVE Amanda Flower and Ellery Adams! ☕☕☕☕☕☕
OMGosh I just discovered your channel and I love it!!! I love cozy mysterious too!!! My obsession started with the A Magical Bakery Mystery by Bailey Cates. I was hooked immediately. By the by, I love your intro!! Did you create it yourself or did you find it somewhere? I've been looking for a great intro for my friends digital planning channel and I love the whimsy of yours. Thanks :)
I’m reading the newest Thursday Murder Club book and am interested to hear what you think of the first one when you read it. I agree with you on how entertaining the Findlay Donovan book is and have the second one now. I’m enjoying reading Agatha Christie and other of the golden age writers now. I’m so glad to be finding some of the ones that aren’t as well known these days. For cozies that aren’t mysteries, a couple of good authors are D. E. Stevenson ( many) and Molly Clavering, loved Dear Hugo (that’s the only one I’ve read so far).
I also love that Clue was filmed and released with three different endings. Different audiences going to see it would see one of the three, making people confused when talking about it if they hadn't seen the same ending. It is a very funny murder mystery film
I love that! I had no idea it was released that way. I have seen all three endings on the dvd but that is such a cool fact.
I absolutely love, love, love 'Only murders in the building'! It's a perfect cosy murder series. And every time I watch it I desperately want to buy every item of clothing in Mabels wardrobe 🥰🧡
Omg SAME!! I love her style so much!!!
❤❤❤
I love cozy mystery television series; I recently in the past few years started watching British and Australian cozy mysteries. I would recommend Agatha Raisin, Queens of Mystery, My Life is Murder, Harry Wilds and Ms. Fisher’s Modern Murder Mysteries on Acorn TV. Then there is BritBox with shows like Shakespeare & Hathaway, McDonald & Dodds, Sister Boniface Mysteries, and Death in Paradise.
I’m an Aussie, so I’m biased, but Ns. Fisher is a brilliant TV show
I'd add the original Miss Fishers Murder Mysteries series, both the books and the TV show. Set in 1920s Australia.
I’ve seen most of these. Also love Father Brown.
I love that cozy mysteries are starting to get love on booktube!
☕️ For me it’s Agatha Christie. I love that it’s usually behind closed doors, and that makes it cozy!
I would recommend Miss Marple series of Agatha Christie as well. For me it was always the cosier read as the events happen in this cute English village😊 and Miss Marple herself is so precious.
The 7 1/2 deaths of Evelyn hardcastle was so good and so cozy and just different in a good way! You’ll love it!
When I was young, I read “The Westing Game” for school and it immediately became my favorite book. While watching your bookshelf reorganization video I saw you had a copy of it in one of your stacks, which inspired me to revisit it a few weeks ago. I can honestly say it was just as fun reading it as an adult as it was a kid. It is a 10/10 recommendation from me for anyone who is lucky enough to have not read it yet! ☕️
I keep meaning to read that one! :)
Agatha christie Evil Under the Sun is also amazing. Shes my all time favourite author. I love her writing style !
☕ Only Murders in the Building is great. I like the modified version with David Suchet of Agatha Christie's "Hallowe'en Party." The ambience is amazing with so many pumpkins. I like the ending much better than the book ending. ocus 1&2 make meI like "Arsenic and Old Lace" with Cary grant who usually makes me laugh pretty hard.

You are going to love Evelyn Hardcastle, and the plot twist at the end is totally unique. ☕️
The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle was really unique and is definitely great autumn vibes. Currently reading Babel because ya girl loves dark academia ☕️
I'm SO excited to start Babel. I want to finish with my Halloween books first. I just dyed my hair a chocolate brown and got some gold rimmed glasses. I now have the ideology "If it's not dark academia, I don't want it" haha
The best murder mystery cozy movie is The Thin Man with Myrna Loy and William Powell. It takes about 15 minutes....so fun, funny, and many actors and actresses favorite movies of all time. Classic
Yes! I'm obsessed with the Thin Man Series!
I lover Karen M. McManus’ writing style and all of her YA mysteries 😍😍😍 It’s like everything that is published by her, I buy 😁
Oh I absolutely love cosy mysteries (in all forms).
Lexi I am loving your videos with recommendations for books but also movies, shows etc. You really do bring the best vibes to the suggestions. 🍂🎃
I love cozy mysteries! I would suggest the Aunt Dimity cozy mystery book series. I am also a huge fan of Agatha Christie and would suggest the BBC series Miss Marple, both the newer and older versions, and any David Suchet Poirot episode as well, they are all amazing. Thank for all the wonderful suggestions! 😊📚
These are really good as audiobooks as well. They are read in a crisp, Bristish accent. Love Aunt Dimity and Reginald 💜
Yes, I feel like Agatha Christie is the OG cozy murder mystery author! And I love the Miss Marple episodes with Joan Hickson and the Poirot episodes with David Suchet.
Mornings are for coffee and contemplation... And Lexi's autumn videos ☕ 🍂 🎃
🥹❤️❤️❤️
I agree that nothing says fall like snuggling up with a murder mystery & a cup of coffee! ☕😊
I read a variety of books but cozy mysteries are my favorite. I enjoyed Clue, Murder On The Orient Express and And Then There Were None. Currently reading Hallowe’en Party by Agatha Christie.
I loved this video! I am a HUGE cozy mystery fan so these were right up my alley! Thank you!
I could watch Clue a million times and never get tired of it. The cast is phenomenal!! The Thursday Murder Club trilogy is so much fun. I can't wait for the movie! 🎃🖤👻🧡

I just ordered a few more I’m so excited! Cozy Mystery is new to me and I’m definitely obsessed but I’ve always loves the cozy mystery old movies!

they are perfect cozy vibe
Thank you for the recommendations ☕️
Absolutely love the recommendations. And Then There Were None is one of my favorite spine chilling book. You should definitely check out the show called 'Infinity Train'.
☕️ So many great choices here!
Why Didn’t They Ask Evans is written and directed by Hugh Laurie. So good.
Gosford Park has such a fantastic cast. Very underrated.
The Thursday Murder Club is wonderful. Book 2 is even better. I can’t wait to read the third one that just came out. I love that the older characters have rich inner lives. They didn’t stop being who they are just because others saw them differently when they got older.

Excellent recommendations! Love all the coziness. If you love Agatha Christie try Who Killed Roger Ackroyd...even my kids liked that one. 🎃✨☺
This list is so fun. I'm excited to read some of these : Knives Out, Enola Holmes, Greenglass House, Finlay Donovan Is, The Secret Book and Scone Society. Thank you!
What a delicious list! Personally, I found by chance on amazon kindle: Murder on Deck 9 by Lorenzo Pagani:

Loved The Shady Hollow Mysteries! Loved Knives Out! Agatha Christie is the Queen of Crime hands down & some of these are definitely getting added to my list.
I watched Knives Out and got Agatha Christie books vibe and i love it
Omg! I love the Secret Book and Scone Society!!! Such a cozy book. I’ve never heard anyone talk about it! Excited to see if you like it. ☕️
Omg your mug is EVERYTHING!!!! I've also added literally all the movies/series you mentioned because they all sounded fantastic.
I have had The Murder on the Orient Express on my shelf for over a year and I feel like I NEED to read it, since she's THE QUEEN of murder mysteries. ☕☕☕
My favorite cozy mystery is right up your alley Lexi! I love the Vampire Knitting Club by Nancy Warren. Get series set in Oxford. There is a spin off of it Vampire books club and Vampire knitting club Cornwall. I can't wait to start the bookclub one.
I loved the movies Clue and Knives Out, they were so much fun to watch. I have read Finlay Donavan is Killing It earlier this year and I thought it was awesome. I could not put it down. I am hoping to read book 2 over the holidays. I absolutely love The Inheritance Games. I just started book 3 today. I can't wait to see how this series wraps up. I have Crime and Poetry and The Secret Book and Scone Society in my TBR stack. So many great books to read right now, I am going to need a very large mug for my tea so I can read to my hearts content. ☕
One of my favorite cozy murder mysterious is The Westing Game. Still one of my favorite books from when I was in middle school.
Thank you so much for all the fabulous recommendations that I haven’t already heard of. Going to start looking for some of those books now and get my cozy on. ☺️☕️
Stumbled upon your video. Went out and bought Finlay Donovan. Thanks for the recommendations!
Hey, Lexi! I just wanted to thank you for having created Foxenwood ❤❤❤
Love this, so many movies/series AND books I want to get into!! ☕️🧡
I’d also add the two recent remakes of Agatha Christie movies - Murder on the Orient Express and Murder on the Nile!
Great recommendations in this video! Thank you!
Halloween Party by Agatha Christie is perfect for this time of year
You have the coziest videos and I always get so happy when you post!❤
I recommend “See How They Run” for cozy mystery movies, it’s similar to “The Grand Budapest Hotel”. Another movie that’s about to come out that seems cozy and is a who dunnit is “Amsterdam”. 🥰
Loved this video so much! ☕ One of my favorite comfort reads is a cozy mystery series called The Tea Shop Series by Laura Childs. It follows a woman who owns a tea shop in the historic district of Charleston, SC - and she's a bit of an amateur sleuth! 🕵️♀️ It's super cozy and atmospheric! I've been reading these books for almost 15 years!
I lived in Charleston for many years❤ I will have to check this series out!
The Scandalous Sisterhood of Prickwillow Place is perfect! Gives a great mix of dark humor along with the mystery vibes.
All three of the Thursday murder club books are AMAZING! The first 2 audiobooks are wonderful. They changed the narrator and I read the last in hardcover because I don't like the new narrator but the books are so funny and well written.
You should add the film "See How They Run" to your cozy mystery movie list. It's new, came out in September
☕️ thank you for more good recommendations. Enjoy your videos
If you like Agatha Christie then I’d definitely recommend books by Nicola Upson. She writes cosy mysteries almost in the same style as Agatha Christie
Most of these books were already on my TBR but I just added Crime and Poetry to it. It sounds so good! ☕
Love mysteries. Especially Agatha Christie.
I freakin' love Clue. Also, my first-choice board game. I have Golden Girls Clue and you try to figure out who ate the last piece of cheesecake. So there's no murder if you are playing with kiddos and, I mean... Golden Girls. ♥☕
Since I know you love hats and are starting to get more into cozy mysteries I think you will like the Hat shop mystery series by Jenn McKinlay first book is named cloche and Dagger. Jenn McKinlay also has a library series and the first book is books can be deceiving! I couldn’t put down the hat shop series and I’m just now starting the library series!
☕ I love cozy mysteries too!!
Clue is the best! It's my favourite boardgame too.
I enjoyed The Afterparty on Apple TV+ too.
Gosford Park is also great!
Great selections for both tv/film & books!
I binge read/listened to The Inheritance Games & Hawthorne Legacy, and ordered all 3 books when The Final Gambit dropped. ☕️
If you’re looking for a unique Cozy Murder Mystery, if you hadn’t already read or seen it, I got this fun one called Shady Hollow by Juneau Black. There’s 3 books in the series so far and it’s basically if you had Agatha Christie write a spin-off series for The Wind In The Willows world. A lady fox reporter investigates the murder of a cranky old toad and discovers SO MUCH small town secret- HOLY SHOOT, I WAS JUST TALKIN ABOUT THAT!!! Sorry I didn’t wait till you was done talkin, I just really love it so far and I been dying to share it. ☕️
You forgot the queen of cozy mysteries, Murder She Wrote! ☺️ but these are all great recs!!
Poor Jessica!
If nothing else I am hooked on all your recommendations. Have read many already. Have others on shelf to be read 📚 and am always looking for other good reads. ☕️ and or tea 🍵 go well with reading 📚 always. A scone
Or cookie 🍪 is always good too! I appreciate 🙏🏻 💛 you so much!
☕️Omg I feel like I need to rewatch Knives Out and Enola Homes before their sequels come out! I also loved those two Agatha Christie books and am wondering which would be good to read next- she has so many books!
☕️ Love your recommendations. Can’t wait to get my coffee and enjoy a good murder mystery.
Will be reading and watching this whole
list asap!
I loved this! I am a fan of cozy mysteries myself and still found some new ones to add to my TBR
My favorite series I’ve read is the Coffeeshop mystery series by Cleo Coyle. Perfect for a coffee lover 😉
My local bookstore lets you put books on hold and then pay on collections and you better believe my daughter and I are going to tuck into greenglass house once we’re done with our current read ❤thank you!
And I bought in the company of witches for the kindle because I couldn’t find it otherwise
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if you’ve never had one consider this your time to try a London fog. It is by far the coziest comforting drink out there. It’s earl gray tea, milk/plant based milk, and vanilla syrup. You can order it from any cafe it make it easily at home and year after year it’s my absolute favorite, even over pumpkin spice
can’t wait for Enola Holmes 2!!!!! 😁👏🏻
Lexi, your videos make my days everytime ☕ I absolutely love your energy, you have a very magical soul and I think the book community agrees with me when I say you're a light to us 🍂🧡thank you!!
The Secret, Book, and Scone Society is the book that got me into cozy mysteries! It’s so good (the series is the coziest too)
For The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, I highly suggest reading it with the physical book and the audiobook.
I just bought The Scandalous Sisterhood Prickwillow Place, I am looking forward to reading it I have seen it all over the book channels I follow.
The Amanda Flower Crime and Poetry is fabulous! I have read that whole series and it was the first Cozy Mystery series I read and Amanda Flower became my favorite author! She has so many different series (I have read almost all of them) that's why I like her so much.
When you get a chance read the whole series it is called the Magical Bookshop Series you won't be disappointed.....I loved it! Kinda need to read in order for this one because each book references something from things that happened in the other books. I found that out when I picked up book 3 at the library not knowing it was a series...lol...didn't stop from finding the first ones and reading them and I reread book 3 and everything fell into place.
Love all the movie/tv series recs! Steve Martin and Martin Short are an awesome duo! They were fantastic in Father of the Bride:) The Sherlock Holmes movies with Robert Downey Jr are also great!
If you are enjoying Agatha Christie you should try Georgette Heyer mysteries. Envious Casca/the Christmas party is set at (surprise surprise) Christmas and has super cozy vibes!
☕️ Just got home from dog sitting and this is the best way to relax!!
It's not a murder mystery, but I was kind of hoping to see stranger things come up!😂 I find the characters, especially some of the parents, and the vibes and the music from the 80s so comforting and homey
My kind of books. Thanks for sharing these books! 🥰
omgosh! ty for doing this video! I have a cozy mystery channel, and it's always awesome to see bigger channels talking about cozies! ty!!
I LOVE them so much!
clue is one of my favorites! I have season tickets to a theatre near me, and the last show of this season in June is Clue...I CAN"T WAIT!!
I wanted to give you a couple of really funny cozies:
Miss.fortune series by Jana Deleon
Sophie Kimball by J.C. Eaton
Poppy McAllister by Libby Klein
Jaine Austen by Laura Levine (funniest, but humor is not for everyone-can be very self deprecating)
I LOVE Amanda Flower and Ellery Adams!
☕☕☕☕☕☕
I was totally going to recommend the inheritance games. Knives Out with some teenage angst. The two sequels are actually pretty good also 👍👍
OMGosh I just discovered your channel and I love it!!! I love cozy mysterious too!!! My obsession started with the A Magical Bakery Mystery by Bailey Cates. I was hooked immediately. By the by, I love your intro!! Did you create it yourself or did you find it somewhere? I've been looking for a great intro for my friends digital planning channel and I love the whimsy of yours. Thanks :)
I’m reading the newest Thursday Murder Club book and am interested to hear what you think of the first one when you read it. I agree with you on how entertaining the Findlay Donovan book is and have the second one now. I’m enjoying reading Agatha Christie and other of the golden age writers now. I’m so glad to be finding some of the ones that aren’t as well known these days. For cozies that aren’t mysteries, a couple of good authors are D. E. Stevenson ( many) and Molly Clavering, loved Dear Hugo (that’s the only one I’ve read so far).
Loved these cozy recommendations ☕️
