For this 5 Things Friday, I decided to do something fun to answer a question I get all the time from my readers: Do you read your cozy mystery book reviews?

The short answer is no, not really...but sometimes. I've pulled a few negative reviews some readers and fans have sent me (not the ones who wrote them!) to use as examples. This video is in the spirit of Jimmy Kimmel's 'Mean Tweets'. Everyone is absolutely entitled to their opinion and, trust me, as a cozy mystery writer I know I'm never, ever going to please everyone all the time. That being said, I thought you'd get a kick out of seeing me reading some of the negative reviews for a few of the books from my cozy mystery series.

Thanks so much for everyone who takes the time to post a review of any of my cozy mystery books -- even the mean ones! 😃

Happy reading,
Ellie
