Recs if you like The Accidental Alchemist (An Accidental Alchemist Mystery, #1)...

I love finding mysteries that have cutesy names or are so nice and cozy you can just jump in. So I thought I'd add a little small town/cozy character mysteries so they are easy to find

The starters for cozy mystery series with fun and unique themes, amateur sleuths with niche-specific jobs and hobbies, adorable animal companions (or supernatural beings), small towns with close-knit communities, may or may not include tasty recipes, and generally just some fun romp mysteries!

Is the main character a magical chef, a warrior cook or techno gourmet? Then they belong on this list. Bonus points if they have recipes included!

Only first books of series.

Not sure if I should include sff books with good food descriptions too. Comment to let me know what you think or with suggestions.

Cozy murders to cleanse the palate or just enjoy! There are craft, coffee, pet, paranormal, vacation, estate and more in this list.

Books related to the culinary arts and amateur baking - all genres, mixed audience

Food-related books across genres (only including first book of series if all food related)

Mystery/ action stories with levity
