TheKidUpstairs
The Diviners | Margaret Laurence
post image

I've read 24. Being a theatre major definitely helped there, lots of plays listed. And presently surprised by the amount of Canadian content.

Three of my all time favourites were on the list:
The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath
Alias Grace - Margaret Atwood
The Diviners - Margaret Laurence

Thanks @dabbe for another fun #ThreeListThursday

dabbe Yay for Canadian writers! All 3 of yours are now on my TBR! I've read Atwood, but not ALIAS GRACE--yet. 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 1w

#12BooksOfChristmas November @Andrew65

I think November was my best reading month of the year so it was hard to pick. This book stuck with me the most though- and I never would have read it if it weren‘t for #FoodAndLit #Canada

LeeRHarry I finished this just before the end of 2024 and know I‘ll be thinking of it for some time. 1mo
Andrew65 Not a book I know but looks good. 1mo
BarbaraBB I purchased this (probably based on your review) but haven‘t read it yet 1mo
kspenmoll This sounds intriguing! 1mo
Tamra This one is so good! I look for this book every time I go to a bookshop, but haven‘t found it yet. 1mo

This book was sad and covered some hard topics, but an incredibly good read. I didn‘t want the story of these women to end. #FoodAndLit #Canada

JuniperWilde I loved this one too. 2mo

Children of My Heart | Gabrielle Roy

The life of a young teacher in 30s Manitoba. Her pupils‘ poverty is incredible. Meanwhile, where I live, the fog outside is so thick right now it‘s like living in cotton wool...

Adventures_of_a_French_Reader J'avais bien aimé Un jardin au bout du monde, merci pour cette recommandation ;) J'avais beaucoup aimé ses descriptions, très bien écrites, merci de m'avoir refait penser à cette écrivaine. 3mo
Catsandbooks Oh wow! 3mo
kwmg40 Nice to see a recommendation for Gabrielle Roy. I've not read this one, but I've read and liked very much several of her other books. 2mo
Dilara @Adventures_of_a_French_Reader @kwmg40 I don't know if I'd go as far as recommend it - her portrayals of minorities made me slightly uneasy sometimes - but it was an interesting window into another world and another time. 2mo
