Nice book, I like the theme of self discovery the main character is on, and I like the idea of the tea master. Story is nice and cosy, but I think it could have done with a few less events and less speed. I think the story could have been a bit more subtle. And the main character as well, she tends to hit people over the head with things. Including the readers. ( ) Princess Miyara chooses to officially leave her family and goes to a city at the edge of her kingdom. Once there, she has to cope with learning real life skills and discovering her place in society. She studies as a "tea aspirant" who will test for tea mastery in 3 months; something that is not supposed to be possible. She also starts to learn about discrimination among her people. read 9/20/2023 This book started slowly for me—it was pleasant but I wasn’t totally hooked as the heroine finds a safe place to live and learns to do things like shop and cook. But it picked up as additional characters and hints of more intriguing plot lines appeared, including a love interest I adored (they study together!). Also, in the beginning, I struggled a little with following the language (she narrates with a formal, princess-y tone) and some of the action (detailed bargains, decisions, and assessments), but my brain eventually adjusted. By the end, I felt super excited for the characters to triumph over the bad guys. (I don’t think that’s a spoiler for a cozy fantasy!) The story felt much deeper than I expected going in. It has interesting commentary on art and living, and some parallels to real-world issues (systemic racism, gentrification) that are obvious without being heavy handed. It has a great cast of characters and really came together into a dramatic story. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

When the fourth princess of Istalam is due to dedicate herself to a path serving the crown, she makes a choice that shocks everyone, herself most of all: She leaves. In hiding and exiled from power, Miyara finds her place running a tea shop in a struggling community that sits on the edge of a magical disaster zone. But there's more brewing under the surface of this city--hidden magic, and hidden machinations--that threaten all the people who've helped her make her own way. Miyara may not be a princess anymore, but with a teapot in hand she'll risk her newfound freedom to discover a more meaningful kind of power. A Coup of Tea is the first book of the Tea Princess Chronicles, a cozy fantasy series full of magic tea, friendship, and lifting people up even when the odds seem impossible.
