Cozy mysteries

I just wanted to share a link I came across in seeking out some new authors to try.

Cozy Mystery List

"Cozy Mysteries" are the types of mysteries I tend to like, but I didn't realize they had been grouped into their own genre (or sub-genre, I guess). They are usually kind of light-hearted with few to no gory or risqué scenes, according to the lady who runs this site (think Mary Higgins Clark or Agatha Christie). Usually the main character is a woman who has a regular job but happens to be intuitive enough to solve murder cases that constantly come her way.

Anyway, if you enjoy that genre, that page has a whole bunch of authors listed, along with the books they've written and then links to their Amazon info.

did you find any other genre lists? I'm not a big fan of these types of books, but I do like it when books are grouped by genre.
