It wouldn't be a proper Christmas without some mulled wine and mince pies, so we just have to add these cozy mystery books to our Christmas collection!

Christmas would simply not be complete without Christmas Pudding of some sort - figgy pudding, plum pudding, or something more traditional and a dash of brandy sauce! So it seems only right to include some Christmas pudding themed cozy mysteries in our Christmas collection. Cozy Mystery Audiobook Add-OnsIf you love audiobooks or use the Whispersync for Kindle facility, then you can often download the audiobook versions of the free books for a huge discount once you have the Kindle book, even when you get the Kindle book for free. Below are the audiobook versions of this week's free Kindle books. Amazon will generally ask you if you want to add the audiobook version once you get to the checkout.
As part of this month's Cozy Mystery Christmas Collection, we'll be exploring cozies with an eggnog theme today. Sadly not much of a tradition here in the UK, but I know it's very popular in Canada and the USA as well as in Trinidad and Venezuela. According to Wikipedia, Eggnog probably derived from a Medieval Britain drink known as 'posset' that was made from milk curdled with wine or ale and flavoured with spices. Sometimes other things were also added, like egg whites, and ambergris - whale vomit!! Lovely!! However you celebrate Christmas, I hope that your eggnog is a delicious one! What better way to celebrate National Gingerbread Cookie day, than with a cozy mystery book or two! Here is just a small collection of books and audiobooks for you, but if you want to see more cozy mysteries on offer, check out the Gingerbread Cookie Day Cozy Mystery Book board on Pinterest. If you love free cozy mystery books then check out the Thanksgiving collection here and the free books collection here. Audiobook Add-OnsIf you love audiobooks and Whispersync, then you can often add the audio version of the book for a hugely discounted price when you buy the Kindle book first. Usually around £2.99 instead of £20 or more. You can also get the book for free as part of an Audible subscription or 30 day free trial, so it's worth checking those out if you love audiobooks.
To celebrate my birthday and the launch of Isla Britannica Books this weekend, there will be 100 limited edition, signed copies of my first book 'Dead on Doughnuts' available to order between now and midnight PDT on the 1st December. This book was previously published on Amazon but is being relaunched after some re-writing, editing, and a brand new cover which will be finished in December. It has done very well on Amazon previously, gaining mainly 4-5 stars, especially considering it was my first book and I couldn't afford an editor. So now it will be relaunched on the 1st February 2019, but 100 copies will be shipped worldwide in early January as soon as the first copies come back from the printer for folks who wish to keep these as special collector's editions. Each book will be signed by myself, numbered from 1-100 on a first come, first served basis, and I won't be signing any more copies of 'Dead on Doughnuts' after this, so it really will be a limited edition just for collectors. There are 50 copies of the paperback available (£15 or local currency), 50 copies of the hardcover version available (£25 or local currency), and 50 copies of the book box containing both the paperback and hardcover together (£35 or local currency). The price includes shipping worldwide, and the book will be available as a paperback, hardcover, or book box bundle. Books can be signed to individuals, along with a message if required. NB. THE COVER DESIGN IS JUST A PLACEHOLDER AS A NEW COVER IS BEING DESIGNED RIGHT NOW!! Dead on Doughnuts Limited Edition, Signed PAPERBACK AND HARDCOVER BOOK BOX Edition (includes shipping)
£35.00

We're almost coming to the end of our culinary cozy mystery month, but you still have time to download plenty of free culinary themed books if you haven't done so already. Today I thought I would share a collection of cheese themed cozies, especially since I'm a huge lover of cheese - cambozola, manchego, and cheddar being my favourites. If you need even more inspiration, then I put together a Pinterest board here. Need some wine to go with your cheese, check out this collection of wine themed cozies!!

Since this month we're celebrating all the culinary and Halloween cozy mystery books, I thought I would blend the two collections together and share some pumpkin cozy mystery books with you. Well it turns out that today also happens to be National Pumpkin Day - who knew! (Just me that didn't know it seems!). Anyway, I hope that you will find something in this little selection to get you in the Halloween and culinary mood, and if you still need more books, then I put a Pinterest board together with even more pumpkin books here. Feel free to add any other pumpkin themed books, maybe even some recipes, in the comments section, I'm sure I missed a lot more. Have a great weekend! Check out even more Halloween cozy mysteries over on my Pinterest board, and don't forget to download your free Halloween cozy mystery books.

As part of October's Culinary Cozy Mystery book celebration I thought I'd share some cozy mystery books that are the perfect accompaniment to your evening glass of wine! And yes I am a bit of a wine snob. In fact when I was born, I lived on an award winning English vineyard in Berkshire, and later got my WSET qualifications in wine. Whatever your tipple, I hope that these will wet your appetite. Check out even more wine, alcohol, and vineyard themed cozy mysteries over on my Pinterest board, and don't forget to download your free culinary cozy mystery books.
