Agatha Christie's image for the M&M Awards for Mystery and Mayhem

The M&M Book Awards recognize emerging new talent and outstanding works in the genre of Cozy and not-so-Cozy Mystery & Mayhem. The M&M Book  Awards is a genre division of Chanticleer International Book Awards and Novel Competitions (CIBAs).

Chanticleer Book Reviews is looking for the best books featuring “mystery and mayhem,” amateur sleuthing, light suspense, travel mystery, classic mystery, British cozy, hobby sleuths, senior sleuths, or historical mystery, perhaps with a touch of romance or humor. We will put them to the test and choose the best among them. (For suspense, thriller, detective, crime fiction see our Clue Awards.)

These titles have moved forward in the judging rounds from all 2022 M&M Semi-Finalists to the 2022 M&M Book Awards FINALISTS. These entries are now in competition for 2022 M&M Finalists. The First Place Category Winners, along with the CIBA Division Grand Prize winners, will be selected from the 25 CIBAs divisions’ Finalists. We will announce the 1st Place Category winners and Grand Prize Division Winners at the CIBAs Banquet and Ceremonies on April, 27-30, 2023 at the luxurious Hotel Bellwether in Bellingham, Wash. at the 2023 Chanticleer Authors Conference.

These titles have advanced to the FINALS of the 2022 M&M Book Awards for Mystery & Mayhem

Good luck to all as your works move on to the next rounds of judging.
