Library Thing document

Cozy Mysteries logged on Library Thing

One of the Web 2.0 tools that we explored was Library Thing. I liked the ability to search books by subject/interest area in order to find out what other people liked in that same area.  The one that I found was Cozy Mysteries, which are basically mysteries where the 'sleuth' is an amateur and usually not in the detective business but does something else, such as being a caterer, running a bookstore, owning a bakery, running a coffee house, or a tea shop, etc.  However, it seems as though they have a 'habit' of finding mysteries where they least expect them, and naturally, have to get into the solving of whatever they have stumbled upon.  By reading the postings and reviews by other people, I was able to gain some new authors to explore.  I've listed a couple authors and titles below in order to use the table feature of this word processing program
