If you love dogs, mysteries set on the west coast, and Christmas time, then Cindy Goyette's latest novel should be on your TBR list! With an agility course opening that turns deadly, Cindy gives us a preview of her book, Dashing Through the Snow. Check out her interview On the Writing Block with Sheryl!

As the chilly air blows outside our windows, and the snow falls from the cloudy sky far above, Christmas is almost here! And that means holiday-themed cozy mysteries...just like author Annie McEwen's latest release. Check out Yule Regret It, the fourth installment of her Northwoods Mystery series.

As Christmas nears, I was in the mood to read a mystery featuring decorated trees and twinkling lights. So I decided to give The Twelve Books of Christmas by Kate Carlisle a try. See what I thought of the first Christmas-themed novel in her "A Bibliophile Mystery" series.
