4.0

I gave Steeped to Death by Gretchen Rue 4 stars.

This is the first book in the Witches' Brew Mystery-series and it was a really good debut.
I have read a lot of cozies and my favorites usually revolve around tea and books. This one fits both those categories, so I really enjoyed this read.

New to me was the magical aspect. I have almost never read any magical cozy, but it made this book even better. I am looking forward to learn more about the magic and the magical teas in the upcoming books.

I would give this book 5 stars if the mystery had gotten me more hooked. I feel like the lack of characters in this book made it easy to guess who the bad guy was.

I am really looking forward to the next book in the series and highly recommend this debut cozy mystery.

Very cozy book that describes tea blends and baking recipes. Plot was ok and the protagonist wasn’t as interesting to me compared with others in the genre.
