Olivia Waite's Murder by Memory
I am the target audience for this book, which is a cozy sci-fi murder mystery featuring a lesbian aunt/detective who knits, on board a sentient spaceship! I have enjoyed the romances I’ve read by Waite, so was psyched to see her writing something in a genre I like even more (there is no romance in this one, though a hint that one might develop in later books in the series). Anyway, things start with our detective waking up in someone else's body, and that body may have been involved in a MURDER! This perfectly maps a classic Golden Age mystery onto science fiction and I loved it. My only complaint is that it's a novella and I did wish there was more to it! But so fun, I can’t wait for more. A/A-.
