Calling all cozy mystery lovers!

While I’ve done many Reading Challenges in the past, it was always something I just set for myself or I joined someone else’s Challenge. But my goal for 2026 is to grow this blog and my Bookstagram in new ways, so for the first time, I’m HOSTING a Reading Challenge and I would LOVE for you all to join me! Read on for more details!

In 2026, join me in reading 26 cozy mysteries—one for each letter of the alphabet, represented by an author whose last name starts with that letter.

Throughout the year I’ll be posting updates, sharing reader posts, and suggesting authors for the Challenge. Since this is my first time hosting, if you have any ideas to make this even more fun or interesting (a group chat? a giveaway? a Discord channel? different templates?)

Use #CozyFrolic2026 and tag me (@bookfrolic) on Instagram so I can see what you’re reading and share your posts!
