Hello--
I'm a bookseller and a long time LT member. I don't know cozies as well as I'd like, but would very much like to get more in the store. A customer recently asked me for cozies specifically without cats or dogs.
Suggestions?
Please and thank you.

I'd start with Berkeley Prime Crime titles (little handprint logo): they have scores of series with cozy sleuths that own inns, make scrapbooks, run tea shops, etc. Tamar Myers writes multiple cozy series; probably best known for the Pennsylvania Dutch mysteries--all goofy with a little slapstick.
It's pretty common for the amateur detectives in cozies to own pets. I wonder if your customer was referring specifically to authors that use an animal/pet as a pseudo-narrator (Rita Mae and Sneaky Pie Brown; Carole Nelson Douglas' Midnight Louie series).

Thank you! I didn't deal with her directly, but I'm pretty sure she meant Sneaky Pie and Midnight Louie type things.
You'd think a seasoned bookseller would be better at sussing stuff out, but every once in a while I have to ask for help. Berkeley Prime Crime is fantastic!
