Not Everyone's Cup of Tea: An Interesting and Entertaining History of Malice Dom

I haven't been to Malice Domestic but I am a devoted cozy reader. This large size, fat paperback is full of interviews, memorials, fun trivia and book notes. It's an entertaining, quick read while waiting for the tea to brew and it's also a great place to get ideas for new authors to try.I keep it by my bed so my husband gets the hint that I'm leaving in May for the next Malice. (It's on top of How To Murder Your Mother-in-Law.)

I hope everyone enjoys this book as much as I enjoyed compiling, editing and doing the layout. Malice Domestic is an annual convention of mystery authors and their fans and this book celebrated 25 years with original essays, reprints from annual program books, and photos, both formal and candid. If you are a lover of the traditional mystery (think Agatha Christie and all her successors), this book will introduce you to many new authors or help you revisit your favorites.
