I tried the mystery/crime genre, a cosy one, and was not disappointed! I love tea and books featuring tea. I liked how the author tackled some more serious themes in a little cosy book, such as toxic marriage, parents' expectations and pressure, and motherhood. It was a really fun, and at times, quite emotional read.

Vera was so funny! I loved reading the chapters from her perspective. Some of the other POV characters were less developed, especially Riki. The story was at its best in the Vera chapters. I really liked Emma and Julia too.

Vera Wong, the owner of a teahouse, wakes up one morning to find a dead body in her shop. After losing faith in the police, she takes it upon herself to conduct the investigation of the mystery dead man. And so it begins!

This was a VERY heartwarming cozy read. Vera is the ultimate mom when it comes to making sure everyone is taken care; eating, sleeping, and living up to their fullest potential. I laughed so much while reading this book, mostly because of Vera. She strongly believes everyone should quick their day jobs and become independent investors! Such a beautiful written story that you would definitely enjoy 💕
