As someone who was a HUGE fan of The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, when I heard about this book, I knew I had to have it. This novel is about a girl named Tash and her best friend Jack who produce, write, and direct a web series about Anna Karenina. This novel is amazing. It's filled with lovely and real friendships, great representation, and a really endearing and fun story.
I absolutely loved the way Kathryn Ormsbee dealt with the way Tash made her adaptation of Anna Karenina. Not only was Tash a die hard Tolstoy fangirl, but she also had a bit of a crush on him as well. I loved reading every single scene about filming and thought they were so well written. Kathryn Ormsbee definitely did her research about what goes on behind the scenes!
The subplot about Tash's Romantic Asexuality was also handled incredibly well. She struggled with telling her friends, but ultimately found acceptance and love, which made me exceedingly happy. It was handled really well in my opinion and I feel like this book might be a good resource for people who are learning about their own asexuality or are curious as to what it might be like to be asexual.
Before this review is over, I definitely want to mention that I would watch the heck out of Teatime with Tash and read the heck out of a sequel or companion novel. This book was fantastic, sweet, and fun all at once and I highly recommend it!
