About Me

Hi there! I’m Christina. When I started Books and Tea in 2015, I was looking for a way to talk about my favourite hobbies — reading SF/F books and trying out different varieties of tea — without cluttering up my main professional presence on the web. Since then, I’ve been nominated for two Aurora Awards for my book reviews and author interviews.

However, like a lot of you, I’m feeling kind of at loose ends. Should I still try to read All The Things? Should I fully rededicate myself to this site as an attempt to regain control over our crumbling social media landscape? I don’t have the answers. But I miss those old-school sites that were just a random person with a hobby. So I’m going to do that as best as I’m able. My writing could be book-related if the mood strikes, but you’ll just as likely see posts about my cats, the gardening I’m doing, or random links I’ve stumbled across.

I live near Toronto with my husband and two cats, and by day I work as a content designer and content strategist with a Canadian bank. If you’re curious about the professional side of my life, visit www.christinavasilevski.com.
