#SeasonalCozies
I just couldn't really get into Murder Most Festive for some reason, so I switched to The Candy Cane Cupcake Killer for my December seasonal cozy, and I'm enjoying it a lot more. 🎄🧁🎄

This was a cute, fun little cozy mystery full of delicious sounding food, believable characters, and a solid plot. And there are plenty of recipes included! I‘ve never read Livia J. Washburn before, but this one put her on my radar. If you‘re a cozy mystery type, this one is thoroughly enjoyable!

AllenTStClair @CouronneDhiver She was a rescue from Hurricane Harvey that the original rescuers couldn‘t keep, so we adopted her from them—and they had already named her “Josie” so we just changed it slightly. ☺️ 7y
