Helpful Score: 1

I just finished this book(found it at the library while looking for something else and pretty much anything with 'tea' in the title catches my eye and I had just been thinking about reading one of Jane Austen's books(nope never read anything by here!)
I found the talk about tea coming to England and the smuggling of tea and how the 'rich' kept moving their breakfast and dinner hours later and later to show how 'elite' they are interesting. Characters from her books are mentioned with passages about tea mentione. There are also some recipes mentioned though they're way too rich sounding for me(though the pound cake is tempting!)This book is just under 100 pages or so and I read it in one evening.
