Recs if you like The Haunted Showboat (Nancy Drew Mystery Stories, #35)...

An incomplete list of fiction that casually mentions darning, patching, or otherwise repairing clothing and textiles, or where characters explicitly wear mended garments. I'm gonna be real with you, the number of books I've discovered mending in is so large I can't remember them all, so expect this list to grow as I continue to read and re/discover.

Suggestions welcome!

Every book from the main Nancy Drew series. (Does not include spinoffs.)

Join me on a cozy tour of the United States and beyond! Cozy mysteries are low stakes, high enjoyment, and an excellent palate cleanser. And reading a cozy mystery about surroundings you recognize or would like to explore just adds to the fun! This list features cozy mystery, first-in-series books set in Louisiana!

Fiction books of varying genres that primarily take place in The Big Easy. Not all books here are by NOLA locals. Only one book per author to keep things interesting!
