pickI love the characters and tea shop in this series. I did figure out the “who done it and why”. I think the author commits the faux pas of having so many customers being overly complimentary to main character and her shop, just for her to be humble or so the author can describe something with dialogue instead of just describing it. But do want to return and read the next one.
so-soMuch as I‘ve enjoyed other books from this series, this one just didn‘t do anything for me. It was just too formulaic. It involves a murder at a winery, and I thought, tea and wine, what‘s not to like? But it just didn‘t cut it, and even the recipes didn‘t inspire me this time.
We stopped at Panera after walking a couple miles on the fitness trail at our regional park. Too hot and thirsty for coffee, so enjoyed plum ginger hibiscus ice tea while we split a bagel. Of course I had a library book with me 😄
A small #libraryhaul this morning, but a library experience unlike any other. Four deputies arrested a young man sitting at the table behind hubby. Pat down, handcuffs, the works. They were relatively quiet and didn‘t cause a disturbance. In fact, hubby didn‘t know anything about what happened literally four feet behind him until I told him on the way out😂 The man has excellent powers of concentration!
(More of the Level 4 book bundles, by the way.) This may be the best book-prize available for this year's #SummerReadingProgram: 18 of the 19 installments in Laura Childs's very popular A Tea Shop Mystery cozy mystery series! 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 (The latest installment is the one not included, and it just came out in late March.) Pretty darn cool.
Would you consider choosing this as your Level 4 prize?
