Looking for: Cozy science fiction

Less universe-saving and galactic political intrigue, more low-stakes plots - similar to all the cozy fantasies about running coffeeshops or whatever

I already aware of Becky Chambers' series (I forgot name) and the Murderbot series and read them.

You might like these two short reads and their sequels:

Olivia Waite: Murder by Memory (the next book Nobody's Baby is coming out soon) : cosy-vibes sapphic murder mystery in space. Comped as "Becky Chambers meets Miss Marple ".

Malka Older: The Mimicking of Known Successes, book one of three so far. Also sapphic, murder mystery on Jupiter with a gaslamp/Holmes feel.

Also Analee Newitz, Automatic Noodle. "a cozy near-future novella about a crew of abandoned food service bots opening their very own restaurant."

And The Cybernetic Tea Shop by Meredith Katz.

Cat Rambo - "You Sexy Thing" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Sexy_Thing_(book)) was on that topic, from the ones I've read. Very nice and well written too.

H. Beam Piper's _Little Fuzzy_ is my go-to for this.

https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/18137

The sequels authored by him are great as well, and the ones authored by Ardath Mayhar are an interesting alternate take:
