It's time for Thursday Tea again!
Thursday Tea is a weekly meme hosted by Anastasia at Birdbrain(ed) Books. To play along, all you need is some tea, a book, and the will to answer some very simple questions: what tea are you drinking (and do you like it)? What book are you reading (and do you like it)? Tell us a little about your tea and your book, and whether or not the two go together.
Tonight I decided to drink Republic of Tea's Wuyi Oolong, probably one of my favorite teas everrrr. Even though it is righteous expensive (almost $20 for a 1.75 ounce tin), it is so totally worth it. The tea is smooth, buttery, with a hint of peach. Mmmm.

Because I was putting together a steampunk-styled theme for my blog, I decided I was in the mood for a futuristic setting and picked up Grimspace by Ann Aguirre. I'm not even at the twenty page mark, but so far it's full of action. Me like action. The main character, Sarantha Jax, is also very intruiging (is it just me or do a lot of characters in these futuristic novels have names like Jax?). She's a Jumper--not entirely sure what that means yet--who killed her partner. At the moment, she's being sprung out of jail by a mysterious, be-suited man who has the power to knock people unconscious with his eyes. Wowsa.
Does my book and my tea go together? Not at all. A more appropriate drink for Grimspace would probably be 2-day-old coffee or tang. I'd say a plain old Lipton tea, if I had to go with a tea choice.
What are you drinking and reading this Thursday?
