I finished the very Ontario Meet Me by the Lake by Carley Fortune and I enjoyed it quite a bit.
I don’t always listen to Canada Reads, but I try to pick up a few books off the list every year just to get me out of my usual circuit of speculative/sci-fi, fantasy, closed-door yearning romance novels, and whatever non-depressing queer darling has come out that year. Sometimes there is an overlap. Sometimes not.
Next I’m planning on picking up Denison Avenue (a vastly different novel, but still very Toronto - which is an interesting choice for a former Calgary mayor (naheed nenshi) but admittedly I don’t know much about him) #bookstodon@bookstodon
