This was my first time reading a Cozy Case Files Sampler, and I really appreciated the variety it offered. It’s a great way to explore different cozy mystery authors and series before committing to a full book.
Book 1 was a pleasant surprise. It felt like a quick, easy read with short chapters that kept the pace moving. I enjoyed it enough that I’d like to finish the full book and possibly dive deeper into the series.
Book 2 initially caught my attention because of the animal theme, which I love. However, I was a bit let down by the paranormal elements—it’s just not my usual taste.
Book 3 didn’t really grab me, and I found myself just not caring about the story or characters in general.

This collection is a fantastic way to discover new authors and stay updated on upcoming releases from your favorites. I genuinely wish more publishers would offer something like this. Each new installment in the series is something I look forward to with excitement.

I like these as they give me a chance to test out different authors. Thank you to the authors, publishers and NetGalley for my eARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was a fun and quick (under 200 page) sampler that introduced me to some new authors in addition to sharing previews of new releases from familiar authors. I enjoyed the range of storylines and settings. I am most excited about the new "Ravensea Castle Series" by author Elizabeth Penney, which starts with Bodies and Battlements.

I just found all of my cozy authors in one place!
