Author Lilian Jackson Braun dies at age 97

If you are a lover of cozy mysteries, you've probably run across Lilian Jackson Braun's  Cat Who..series.  The series features two Siamese cats and their owner, James (Qwill) Qwilleran.  Qwill is a newspaperman whose cats help him solve mysteries.  The series starts with "The Cat Who Could Read Backwards". The three main characters develop over the series and their growth and development, as cats and a person, are important to the stories.  As with other cozy mysteries, there is little blatant violence and the series is actually described as being heartwarming.  The stories have a leisurely pace with the solution to the mystery nicely concluded at the end of each book.
