I usually have trouble with A-Z challenges, but since I read a lot of cozy mysteries I have to try this one.

2026 A-Z Cozy Mystery Challenge
Duration: January 1, 2026 - December 31, 2026

Goal: Read 26 cozy mysteries, each one whose title or series name begins with a different letter of the alphabet.

*For Q, U, X, Y and Z, the title or series name needs to have that letter somewhere in their name.

Here I am! Let's see what I can collect.

Thank you, everybody!

I've already spotted two or three challenges that might interest me, but I'll start in the new year, apart from the "Reading the Season" challenge, of which I'm looking forward to the winter one.

Marla, the K-9 FBI series is one of my favorites: the books can be read as stand alone, but I recommend reading them in order to follow how the personal life of the protagonist and her close circle of friends develops.

Hi. Like Meg, I discovered this group when Jan decided to close hers.

I'm Italian and I love reading cozy mysteries, mysteries, romantic suspense, and the occasional romance. Honestly, I find it hard to say which book is my favorite: I have too many! Among my latest readings I can mention this: . Plus, I'm a fan of series.
