My favorite is the Gaslight mystery series by Victoria Thompson. This is historical fiction and I find the series to be very interesting.
I read many book series, so here are my other favorites:
Susan Kiernan-Lewis: The Maggie Newberry Mysteries and Stranded in Provence mysteries.
M. L. Hamilton: Peyton Brooks Series, Peyton Brooks FBI series, Zion Sawyer Cozy Mystery Series
Lucy Burdette Key West Mystery Series
Patricia Greenwood's Wisteria Tea Room mysteries
These are just a few of the ones that I really enjoy. Some are free and some are quite expensive. I generally start at Book 1 to see if I will like the series. I stop reading them when they get stupid. These books are really good.

Thanks so much for all the help! So many series I've never tried...so excited. On Amazon right now!!!
You're quite welcome. Many here read cozies (I do too) so it comes up a lot. In the second link I provided there are links to sites about cozy mysteries.
I especially recommend cozy-mystery.com, which I learned about on that thread, because there are lists by theme, whether it be holidays or knitting or whatever. It's a fabulous resource. The site owner used to post here, maybe still does?

I have just discovered the Mudbug series by Jana DeLeon. Centered around a cranky ex-mother-in-law who returns as a ghost seen only by her ex-daughter-in-law, funny and heartwarming. Check it out!

Love Elaine Viets Dead End Job mystery series; it is my all-time favorite. Takes place in South Florida.

I enjoy this series too... Her other series, Mystery Shopper, is also fun...
I also enjoy the aforementioned Gaslight series... While sometimes a bit darker and ostensibly more 'literary' I also enjoy Anne Perry's novels from the same era, both her Pitt and Monk series...
