Tea with Jam & Dread

Wrote a review for

I dove into Tea with Jam and Dread craving Vicki Delaney’s signature cozy vibes, and oh, did it deliver! Lily, Bernie, and Rose trading their Cape Cod tearoom for a London estate felt like stepping into the heart of their England-inspired dreams. The setting sparkled, think grand manors and proper tea times, making every page feel like a warm hug from a British granny. The mystery was engaging, with a satisfying conclusion that tied up the chaos neatly, leaving me smiling.


Delany’s knack for quirky characters shone, but oof, the Frockmorton family tree was a tangle! Even with a character list, I struggled to keep everyone straight and eventually just rode the story’s flow. The pacing was steady, though the crowded cast slowed me down a bit. Still, the transatlantic charm and Lily’s sleuthing kept me hooked.
