Well, I started reading this and I would agree with the comparison to Janet Evanovich who is hilarious, but a cozy mystery writer she is not. This wouldn't be my idea of a cozy mystery, but maybe I'm a dinosaur. But if everything fits into a 'cozy' category, why have the category at all? Just call everything 'mystery' and have everyone sort it out themselves.
And I have no wish to tell other people what to read; that's not my point. I just want a 'cozy' mystery I buy to be a traditional cozy - short on rough language, nudity, sex scenes, unnecessary gore. Like I said, maybe I'm a dinosaur, but I'm a gently saddened one. We're all different. <shrug>
