Mrs. Claus and The Santaland Slayings

Mrs. Claus and The Santaland Slayings
Join the cozy conversation and Christmas fun with Angela Maria Hart and Regina Williams as they share their love of Mrs. Claus and the Santaland Slayings (Mrs. Claus Book One) by Liz Ireland. Let's combine everything we love about cozy mysteries with the holiday season 🎄   ABOUT THE BOOK   It's the first Christmas in Santaland for April Claus--but it may also be her last unless she can uncover a villain with a killer Christmas wish. . . Love is full of surprises--though few compare to realizing that you're marrying the real-life Santa. April Claus dearly loves her new husband, Nick, but adjusting to life in the North Pole is not all sugarplums and candy canes. Especially when a cantankerous elf named Giblet Hollyberry is killed--felled by a black widow spider in his stocking--shortly after publicly arguing with Nick. Christmastown is hardly a hotbed of crime, aside from mishaps caused by too much eggnog, but April disagrees with Constable Crinkle's verdict of accidental death. As April sets out to find the culprit, it'll mean putting the future of Christmas on the line--and hoping her own name isn't on a lethal naughty list . . .   GoodReads Page: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55110674-mrs-claus-and-the-santaland-slayings    Regina's Medium: https://reginathesouthernista.medium.com/  @reginathesouthernista on Instagram The Cozy Mystery Book Club: https://thecozymysterybookclub.com/  Angela Maria Hart: https://angelamariahart.com/  @writerahart + @ cozymysteryclub on Instagram

Sherlock Holmes Day Celebration | Elementary, She Read
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Birthday is May 22nd. Celebrate his literary idol, Sherlock Holmes with Vicki Delany! Vicki is the author of the Sherlock Holmes Bookshop series from Crooked Lane! VICKI DELANY: http://vickidelany.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vicki.delany/  📖 Elementary, She Read Sherlock Holmes Bookshop Mystery 📖 Gemma Doyle, a transplanted Englishwoman, has returned to the quaint town of West London on Cape Cod to manage her Great Uncle Arthur's Sherlock Holmes Bookshop and Emporium. The shop--located at 222 Baker Street-specializes in the Holmes canon and pastiche and is also the home of Moriarty the cat. When Gemma finds a rare and potentially valuable magazine containing the first Sherlock Holmes story hidden in the bookshop, she and her friend Jayne (who runs the adjoining Mrs. Hudson's Tea Room) set off to find the owner, only to stumble upon a dead body. The highly perceptive Gemma is the police's first suspect, so she puts her consummate powers of deduction to work to clear her name, investigating a handsome rare-books expert, the dead woman's suspiciously unmoved son, and a whole family of greedy characters desperate to cash in on their inheritance. But when Gemma and Jayne accidentally place themselves at a second murder scene, it's a race to uncover the truth before the detectives lock them up for good.

Colleen Cambridge Interview | Colleen Gleason Chats About Agatha Christie, Writing Life, Monk, & More!
I had the honor of interviewing Colleen Cambridge aka Colleen Gleason at Malice Domestic. We chatted all about our love of Agatha Christie, underrepresented/under appreciated Agatha Christie characters, Monk (tv show), how Colleen wrote over forty books, and so much more. 💻 ABOUT COLLEEN 📖 Colleen Gleason (aka Colleen Cambridge, C.M. Gleason, and Alex Mandon) is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling and award-winning author who can’t seem to decide what type of book to write…so she writes a lot of different genres! So far, Colleen has written everything from vampire hunters to dystopian romance, to steampunk, historical romance, and mysteries with a supernatural flair or a historical setting. One element, however, that appears in all of her stories, is that of partnership…whether it be professional, romantic, or both. All of Colleen’s books feature strong heroines experiencing fast-paced adventures, danger, mystery, and of course, romance. But at the core of each story is the belief that every woman deserves a partner who accepts her for her strengths as well as her weaknesses—and vice versa. Colleen lives in the midwest United States with her family and two dogs, and is always working on her next book. 🔎 WHERE TO FIND COLLEEN 📚 ✨ Website: https://www.colleengleason.com/colleen-cambridge/ ✨GoodReads (Colleen Cambridge): https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/21145337.Colleen_Cambridge ✨GoodReads (Colleen Gleason): https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/21145337.Colleen_Cambridge ✨TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@UCzo5r7Y8-pf3aXyz0d1bXnw ✨Twitter: https://twitter.com/colleengleason ✨Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/colleengleason/ ~*~♡~*~♥~*~♡~*~♥~*~♡~*~♥~*~♡~* ~ ~ ~ WHERE TO FIND ME (ANGELA) ONLINE ~ ~ ♡ Website: http://angelamariahart.com/ ♡ Twitter: https://twitter.com/writerahart (@writerahart) ♡ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/writerahart/?hl=en (@writerahart) ♡ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/booksaremyhart (@booksaremyhart) Featuring Classically Cozy Conversations & Chatting Romance ♡ GoodReads: https://www.goodreads.com/angelamariahart (@angelamariahart) ♡ Newsletter Landing Page: https://mailchi.mp/12736139528e/angelamariahart linktr.ee/angelamariahart ~*~♡~*~♥~*~♡~*~♥~*~♡~*~♥~*~♡~*~ THE COZY MYSTERY BOOK CLUB ✧ Twitter: https://twitter.com/cozymysteryclub (@cozymysteryclub)  ✧ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cozymysteryclub/?hl=en (@cozymysteryclub)  ✧ Newsletter Landing Page: https://mailchi.mp/9e1787486d8b/thecozymysterybookclub https://linktr.ee/cozymysteryclub ✧ Complete YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2ywVWROGcKu0hZmA6jGUK6kR8kGAhBb- ** Where to Find Cozy Mystery Book Club Swag ** ✦ Zazzle: https://www.zazzle.com/store/booksaremyhart ✦ TeeSpring: https://teespring.com/stores/angela-maria-hart ✦ Society6: https://society6.com/writerahart

Nowadays twenty-two-year-old Siobhán O’Sullivan runs the family bistro named for her mother, along with her five siblings, after the death of their parents in a car crash almost a year ago. It’s been a rough year for the O’Sullivans, but it’s about to get rougher. One morning, as they’re opening the bistro, they discover a man seated at a table, dressed in a suit as if for his own funeral, a pair of hot pink barber scissors protruding from his chest. With the local garda suspecting the O’Sullivans and their business in danger of being shunned—murder tends to spoil the appetite—it’s up to feisty redheaded Siobhán to solve the crime and save her beloved brood. https://carleneoconnor.net/murder-in-an-irish-village/      Where to Find Angela: linktr.ee/angelamariahart https://angelamariahart.com/  Where to Find The Cozy Mystery Book Club: https://linktr.ee/cozymysteryclub  https://thecozymysterybookclub.com/

Join Angela & Ben for their chat of Sugar and Vice by Eve Calder. Bring on all the cookies, cozy companions, coffee, and cuteness.  📖 ABOUT THE BOOK 📖 OUT OF THE OVEN Lately, Kate has a lot on her dessert plate. She’s launching a cookie-of-the-day challenge in the heart of Coral Cay, providing sweet treats for the reception of the town’s handsome new veterinarian―not to mention dealing with tourists in town for a pirate festival and the surprise arrival of her former fiancé, Evan, who seems determined to win her back. AND INTO THE FIRE And if that’s not enough, a skeleton has been found―in the backyard behind her best friend Maxi’s floral shop. Kate knows Maxi could never hurt a fly. Maybe the remains belong to Sir George Bly, a long-dead pirate whose name has become urban legend―until now? It’s time for Kate to use every trick in the recipe book to prove Maxi’s innocence, and find the truth about the skeleton, before the last of the cookies crumble…   GoodReads Link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/51164509-sugar-and-vice  YouTube Livestream Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3sxNhujvkc    ~ ~ THE COZY MYSTERY BOOK CLUB ~ ~ Sign Up for The Cozy Mystery Newsletter and Receive **THREE** Free Cozy Mystery Themed Bingo Boards: https://mailchi.mp/db1e14027b41/xrljkc8sq3 ✧ Website: http://thecozymysterybookclub.com/ ✧ Twitter: https://twitter.com/cozymysteryclub (@cozymysteryclub) ✧ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cozymysteryclub/?hl=en (@cozymysteryclub) ✧ Newsletter Landing Page: https://mailchi.mp/9e1787486d8b/thecozymysterybookclub ✧ Complete YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2ywVWROGcKu0hZmA6jGUK6kR8kGAhBb- ✧ https://linktr.ee/cozymysteryclub Join Our Cozy Corner Chats & our Cozy Christmas Extravaganza, 12 Days of Cozies! 12 Days of Cozies runs December 1st to December 12th.
