We had our first chill in Georgia and everyone here got excited for cozy weather! Of course, next week we'll be back in our flip-flops, but I do enjoy a short bout of cool weather for cozy reading. How about you? I'm about to start my annual "scary season" read. None of the following books fit that bill. These are all cozy mystery new releases to warm your heart, not scare you silly! Besides cozies, you'll find some romantic crime thrillers in October's book deals as well.
