yelling jackal@pussreboots agender and looking for more mystery recommendations, I lost track about ten years ago when I lost access to a consistent library to lend things from...
@len Cool. What sort of mysteries did you enjoy? I can recommend some.
@pussreboots Cadfael, Fidelma, all the Agatha Christies, Dorothy Sayers, Father Brown, this one series about a woman detective in Australia in I guess the 40s or so that was just on its second book when I lost library access, Ladies' No. 1 Detective Agency...
Honestly I'll go in for just about anything! Books more than series or movies, for speed's sake, but I like both.

@len Let me think for a bit. I will put together a list of books for you.
This is the start of the recs but I'm going to need to take a break tonight.
Question: are you interested in contemporary / cozy mysteries? I read a ton.
Anyway: here's the list so far:
Mystery series with a historical setting
Flavia de Luce series by Alan Bradley
first book: The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley
Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes by Laurie R. King
first booK: The Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie R. King
Blanche on the Lam by Barbara Neely
Phryne Fisher mysteries by Kerry Greenwood (this is probably the Australian series you were reading)
Bones of Paris by Laurie R. King (a standalone mystery set in 1920s mystery)
