I read A Magic Steeped in Poison by Judy I. Lin

A Magic Steeped in Poison (The Book of Tea, #1)A Magic Steeped in Poison by Judy I. Lin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I heard about this book a while ago as a book that had a magic system based on tea. I love tea and magic systems, so I had to check it out.

There are wonderful descriptions of teas and food.

The plot is slightly generic, but the element of tea really makes the book stand out.

I will be reading the second book eventually, but plot-wise, I do not feel absolutely compelled to continue.

I loved the vibes though, the whole interaction in the kitchens, all the tea and stuff.

I will be giving 3.75 stars to be accurate.

The journey leads us to Vintara, a distant planet with a purplish tone to its atmosphere where most of the action will take place. The book is a very detailed sci-fi saga that brings classic and fantasy elements to the game, resulting in an immersive experience for the reader. The biggest quality

My Journey as a Reader Continues

I decided to stop saying “hello, everyone,” as I understand absolutely no one reads this blog. Still, the narrator must introduce his voice in a text, so hello, and welcome to my blog. August was the first month where I did not make any updates to this blog since I created it. September was just about to become the second month, but I decided to step forward. My mom left Canada to continue her travels in Portugal at the end of September. Work has gone berserk over the past month, but I still was able to read a lot, even more, when I could finally step out for two weeks of vacation after 3+ years of constant work. Now, with all these readings that I have made, there’s just so much to talk about. I am at the prime of my experience as a reader so far in this lifetime. Above all, one thing that has been making a huge difference for me is getting soundtracks to match what I am reading. Since I started this journey of reading more and more, I have begun selecting ambiance tracks on youtube t
