Why read it?
1 author picked Rain Through Her Fingers as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I’d like to share a nice cup of tea with Elaine, and with her magical abilities, we would always have fresh water for the teapot.
From Christina's list on gaslamp heroines with tea and adventures.
