Cozy Mysteries Book Club
- Beschrijving
- What makes a mystery "cozy"? Besides centering on mysteries, this genre has a focus on atmosphere and character. Usually the key setting is close and intimate, like a tea shop or a small, rural village and the mystery itself serves as a way to explore the developing and pre-existing relationships between characters.
