Part of the Canadian canon and once having read it, I‘m not surprised. Learned so much as well. Great read.

Wonderful piece of Canadian literature. Classic for sure.
Two Solitudes - Classic CanLit for the win! So good so far! 🍁 I feel super Canadian too!
I've been struggling hard lately with my reading!!! I just haven't found that book to knock me off my seat!
Usually a good chunky one helps so thought about these 4:
Went to the library to return Helen Dunmore's book and walked out with 3 more. Aren't libraries great?
The Collector looks like some creepy fun and I love the cover. The cover for the classic CanLit Two Solitudes forced my hand and I'm always into a new Alison Moore. Death and the Seaside gives me The Lighthouse vibes - a book I really loved.
All brand new - another thing that brings me joy! The first one to crack open a library book.
A Pick with reservations. As a classic of Canlit it was interesting to read, but I wouldn't necessarily start with this one if you've never read MacLennan.
I'm reading The Novel of the Century, which talks about Les Misérables, and this part of the introduction made me think of Two Solitudes. Going by this description of Les Mis, I have to wonder whether MacLennan had this book in mind when he decided to name a particular character "Marius". ?
Changing locations for hour 15 of the #24in48. Reading in the backyard at the in-laws'. We'll see how long I last before bugs chase me inside 😜
This is one of THE big books of Canlit, and by one of my favourite authors, so of course I haven't read this yet 😜
