Description:

There are lots of books out there about tea, in particular, cozy mystery novels. If you're interested in starting a book club to read them, join this swap.

Our first book and swap was "Death By Darjeeling" by Laura Childs. We'll continue with the Indigo Tea Shop mystery series for this round. (There are 14 books in the series.) If anyone wants to move to another tea-themed book/series, just post below.

Book #2: "Gunpowder Green" by Laura Childs. She writes three different mystery series (tea, scrapbooks, eggs).

Read the book (in whatever format suits you, paperback, audio, e-reader, etc) and tell two partners what you think of it in a note or letter or whatever snail-mailed format suits your fancy. You'll also need to send at least one tea-themed recipe (that's NOT in the book!) with your book review. It could something to serve with tea, something with tea as an ingredient, etc.

The idea is that we'll read a book each month and send a little something. For the last go round it was a sealed teabag.

Happy reading, tea lovers.

International. Snail mail. Group membership.

What an awesome idea! I just have to see if I can get the book here before I can join.

Fabulous idea for a swap! I have read a few of the books in this series, but I pass them along after I'm done and forgot where I left off! :) I will have to figure out what book I read last and try to catch up again!

Hope to have you both in the swap!

I'm having a challenging time finding this book in the library. I will check 2 library systems I'm part of and hope I can locate the paperback edition.

Helen: I see you're in the swap so you must have found a copy. If not, PM me when you return from holiday.

f.a.

I was able to get the book! It was a challenge to find, but worth the effort.
