Book Lists for Adults — Staff Picks

Cozy, cute, funny, flirty, food, cafe, cats and cheese - no one can escape the shelter of the paperback cozy mystery genre.
These books feature appeals such as pirates, swashbuckling, chosen family, opposites-attract romance, reimagined history, or a cheerful "be gay, do crime" attitude.
Does your life need excitement? Men and Women of international mystery and intrigue are aplenty in our collection just waiting for you to find them!
Some monsters, some witches, time travel (past and future), genetics, and lets not forget lasers. But there is also family and found families; slavery and freedom; dying worlds and saving worlds; mysteries and truths.
