Cat Mystery Readers discussion

I'm a huge fan of cozy mysteries...well, any kind of mysteries but I love the ones that feature cats. Joe Grey by Shirley Rousseau Murphy is one of my favorites and started my love of cat mysteries. There are quite a few authors I love but too many to name.

I thought I'd create this group so we can all share books that feature cats.

Thanks for the invitation! I love cat mysteries, and dog mysteries. I haven't read as many as I like but hope to remedy that.:)

Thanks for the invitation. I love cozy mysteries that feature cats or dogs. I love to find new authors too. Sounds like a fun group.

Thanks for the invitation.

Thank you for inviting me, Yvonne. I love cats, and have a calico and a Maine coon/Siamese/Calico mix.

Glad you could all join!

Thanks for the invite. Love reading stories with cars and dogs.
This year I am trying to read more cozies as they are very enjoyable.

Thanks for inviting me! I write the Fat Cat mysteries, third one just out this month.

I plan on starting your series soon janet. I have known yvonne for quite a bit and im so excited she started this group.

It's good to meet you, Shelby, and all the others here--nice enthusiastic cat people!

Thank you for the invite! Coincidently, I am currently reading Amanda Flowers current book Crime & Poetry which stars an adorable feline:)

I loved this book, but Amanda Flower/Isabella Alan is one of my favorite authors...

I love thr isabella alan books.

Thanks for letting me join. I love all things that have to do with cats and reading. I think I'll fit right in around here.

I have been reading the Cat Who series off and on for a couple years. I'm currently ready for book 20 in the series. I am hoping to finish the series this year and then start on the Mrs. Murphy series. I got the whole Cat Who series and about half of the Mrs. Murphy books at a library sale a couple years ago and have finally found the time to read them :-)

I want to start the cat who series soon but my library only has a few not in order and not all the surrounding libraries have them. its so hard to find cozy cat books because so many cozy's have cats on the cover-often the same cat throughout the series covers. Quite often the books make no mention of cats.

Thanks for the invite! I've loved cat books ever since my first Midnight Louie book. Also love Joe Gray and the Mrs. Murphy mysteries by Rita Mae Brown and of course "The Cat Who"! And others, too many to mention!

Thanks for joining the group. I hope we all find new-to-us cat mysteries to read!

I love both cat and dog mysteries, especially if they are told from the animal's perspective.

I've been having so much fun looking for these stories...it's like I've found a hidden world that I'm happy to be a part of.

Just started the Mystic Notch series and am loving it. One of the writers here...Jeanne Fogarth I believe...also has a good series that I recently started reading. Loving that one too.

About to read my very first Chet and Bernie book.

Hi I have a question. I know you also host the Cruisin' Through the Cozies Challenge (At least I think you do)... What I want to know is if there is a group for that challenge too and if so, what is the link? Thank you for answering.

My library has all the Cat Who books, including the short story collections, and I've read them all several times (the actual series novels, anyway). I guess 30 is a good number to end the series on, but I was really looking forward to reading the next book in the series, but Lilian got sick while working on getting it published, so she changed her mind shortly before she died and decided to not publish it, so now we'll never get to read what would have been the 31st book in the series...

Hi, my name is Darlene, from Alberta, Canada. I recently discovered the Goodreads app from a librarian, who was kind enough to show me how to use it. I love mysteries of all kinds, cozies, historical ones, cat and dog mysteries, and I will read nearly anything else....except Romance. I hope to have the time to do some of the challenges here. So nice to "meet" all of you. I am still updating my book shelves, I need to input about 600 more cookbooks, as well as a few more fiction, so wish me luck!!

Welcome Good luck with updating your shelf Ibid a major job. I like cat and dog and animal stories. Seldom read romance. I do have a few romance authors that I will read.

Welcome Darlene!
