I think I would like Theodosia's tea shop as a place to visit/spend time. According to the book, Shades of Earl Grey is a tea blend that Drayton created. Earl Grey is also the name of Theodosia's dog. I liked the idea of something new being created out of something thought to be broken beyond repair. A different way to appreciate the same thing. The mystery deals mostly with stolen goods--what appears to be stolen jewelry at first but eventually links to other stolen items of great value. This is still one of my favorite series. I love the Charleston setting and how you still get that small town feel. Laura Childs' mysteries are always hard to solve, which adds to the enjoyment of the book. I hate to know who the culprit is before the end of the book. The characters are well developed and have such a great friendship. I love reading this series! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Since discovering this series, it has become my favorite tea shop mystery series. There's always innovation for the tea shop customers. The latest delight has Theodosia, Drayton, and Haley excited about their Open House preparations to launch T-Bath products of oversized tea bags for use in the bath. While preparations were underway for their special event, I was curious how they might solve the mystery that came to their attention at the engagement party. There didn't seem to be any suspects until the possibilities became a significant concern.
One of the fun aspects of reading is discovering where the title will be revealed in the book, and this story is no exception. Though I doubted that "Shades of Earl Grey," had anything to do with Theodosia's dalbrador, Earl Grey, my guess was incorrect. Make sure to add it to your tbr to make your guess.
