Resumen del Editor

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.

Sweet story!

Love Natalie Naudus' voice! It made a sweet story easy to listen to. I binged without even trying!

Very enjoyable!

I really enjoyed how easy it was to fall into this book. It was over before I even realized what happened :) . It felt good to read and I am looking forward to the second book.

Quiet but capturing...

Not an adrenaline kick or full of passionate love affair moments, but instead packed with a journey of self, honor and most of all, the concept of filling your cup by serving others. Love this story! My only thought is that her love interest seems a little unworthy of her in the end... but maybe he will step up a little more in the second book.

Princess discovering herself

Princess finding her own path new friends and places adventures, tests , confronting dangerous people and triumphant

I really. really enjoyed the book

Much thought was put into the dialog and the cleverness of Miyara. I loved the character development, that was layered and revealing itself bit by bit. Truly entertaining and I really enjoyed this book. It was written so well that could ignore the wokeness contained within. I will be watching this Author because I will be a diehard fan should this not be a running theme in her books.

Wonderful fun story with well written characters.

The story is well put together and fun and silly at times, but meaningful and important at others. looking forward to the other books.

Delightful!

A compelling start a new series! A sheltered princess strikes out for independence without a clue which path she wants to tread. Her journey will lead her to delicious new experiences and dangerous political maneuverings.

As a personal note, I deeply enjoy the causal inclusivity of the author. While Casey Blair does not shove social causes in her readers’ faces, she built a realistic (in this regard, less so on the magic front) world where people are fundamentally Human. The Othering society is so prone to is acknowledged and rejected through the eyes of our Princess. It’s beautiful and deeply fulfilling.

cozy fantasy tea shop with strong justice analysis

I love cozy fantasy and this is a great entry, running a magical tea shop is just my cup of tea. Natalie is one of my favorite narrators making for a very easy and comforting listen. check out if you enjoy weaponized manners, social justice in city politics, and dragons!

Cozy and comforting wither personal stakes that feel like they matter

A great cozy fantasy read. The protagonist is endearing my incompetent and equally driven to overcome her lack of real-world understanding. She is the sort of friend you want to keep forever: trustworthy and supportive with just the right amount of calling you out on your bullshit.

I love all the diverse characters!

This book was heartwarmin, funny, and clever. I quite literally cheered out loud during the final chapters. The narrator did a great job bringing the warmth of the story into her voice and characters. In the end, I wish I could witness a tea ceremony.
