The Luck of the Irish: A New Cozy Mystery Anthology! with guests J. R. Lancaster and Jessica Thompson, Part 1

The Bookshelf Odyssey Podcast

Welcome to the first part of a two part conversation I have with mystery authors J. R. Lancaster and Jessica Thompson. Today, we're talking Murders, mysteries, and St. Patrick's Day... along with some "meet cute" stories!
These authors are here to talk about their new St. Patrick's Day-Themed Cozy Mystery Anthology, edited by Jessica Thompson and Kate Darroch. We also talk about St. Patrick's Day traditions, and of course we will give you a big list of Irish themed mysteries to read! And then near the end of the episode, I find out that I was in the presence of some Jane Austen mega fans, and we ended up talking for another half hour about her and some of our favorite classics. So the episode will be divided up and next week Jessica and J. R. will be back to talk about some more of our favorite reads!
