I love this series. Just checked to make sure I did have the upcoming release pre-ordered. I do!! I love the punny titles of cozies. Between that, the covers, the wonderful settings and characters, I just love cozies. One of my favorite titles is not a culinary one - Mission Impawsible! Plus I love me some dogs in my books, lol

Hi Kay, Thank you so much for pre-ordering the book! The number of pre-orders affects how many copies bookstores order for their shelves, so it's a big help to writers when readers pre-order. Love that title you mentioned. I hadn't heard of that book.~Maya

I always pre-order books as soon as I see they are available. Not only do I get the great book, but I don't have to remember when they are being released, lol. I love your series. I love the characters and everything about them. (Also I always write reviews for them too)

Maya thanks for letting us know about the pre-orders affecting book stores orders. I will keep that in mind as authors have new releases.

Scene of the grind by Tonya Kappes is one of my favorites. I love finding Authors that's I haven't read their books. I always look for a great book cover to catch my eye. A good storyline and good characters is what's important to me. I especially like books that has humor to them.

I have to admit this is a new series to me, so I haven't had a chance to read any of the books, but this is definitely my favorite type of adventure. When I read the title Scam Chowder I laughed out loud...Lol. That has to be my new favorite. Looking forward to starting this series.

I've enjoyed the Kensington Palace Chef Mysteries by Nell Hampton (Nancy J. Parra), and some of them are quite witty: Lord of the Pies and Kale to the Queen. What do you think?

Hi Karlene, Thank you for sharing a title with a pun. Donna Andrews has some of the best title puns. Who knew there could be so many bird puns?

No Farm, No Foul by Peg Cochran. I just finished the second book in that series. Imagine if the chickens were stolen. Then it would be no fowl.

Killing Thyme is my choice of a pun title. A unique title is one way to catch my eye and make me want to read a book. Also any cover with a cat or dog on it

Love all the puns in cozy mystery titles, but the one that I as a good old Southern gal that comes to mind that I thought was extremely good is "Biscuits and Slashed Browns" (A Country Store Mystery) by Maddie Day. Love the graphics tooI

A punny titled cozy was the first mystery I ever read and was hooked. I enjoy humor in my reads and several authors always deliver. Tamar Myers’s Play It Again Spam and Butter Safe Than Sorry; Mary Daheim’s Scots On the Rocks, Creeps Suzette, and Legs Benedict; and any of Jill Churchell’s punny titles with their nod to Shakespearean and classic book titles make it very hard to pick just one favorite.

I really like punny titles for cozy mystery books. How about "To Brie or Not To Brie" by Avery Aames? I would like the chance to win.
