This is an absolutely charming and delightful book! I enjoyed every story in it! The title holds a clue: Death and a Cup of Tea, edited by Jess Faraday. Each story has something to do with a cup of tea. There's an old fashioned mystery (with a librarian), one from the future, even one with a basketball game. It won't take you long, and be sure to have a cup of tea handy.

Here's a book I loved even though I'll never use it as it was intended: Secret London: an Unusual Guide, by Rachel Howard and Bill Nash. It's an amazing collection of things to see in London, obviously, and while it does have the usual touristy information such as location, hours, etc. it also has a lot of history. From the serious to the silly, the religious to anything but, the pompous to the playful, it was a great way to learn more about London.
