Cozy mysteries without murder
Sometimes the amount of bodies piling up starts to feel a bit ridiculous. So I'm looking for ones with other mysteries— stolen items, missing persons, etc etc.

Google got me a few lists, but several of the ones i looked at weren't available in a digital format.

Any suggestions?

The old-time juvenile mystery series generally don't include murder: Nancy Drew, Cherry Ames, Judy Bolton, Vicki Barr, Penny Parker, etc. A few Judy Boltons and Vicki Barrs, as well as Penny Parkers (written by Mildred Wirt, who wrote the first several Nancy Drews) are available at Project Gutenberg. A bunch of Nancys (both original text and revised) are offered at Faded Page.

It's been a while since I read any of this series (and I haven't read the whole series) but my recollection is that at least some of them fit your request:

Isabel Dalhousie series by Alexander
McCall Smith

They spend a lot of time inside the main character's head, and she thinks a lot, so if you prefer books that have more action than thinking these might not be your cup of tea.

I've read most of The No. One Ladies Detective Agency series by Alexander McCall Smith and don't recall that there was ever a murder.
