Welcome to Litsy!

Hello Everyone! This is a silly request but I am looking to read a book either about or by an author from every Canadian province and territory. Thus far, I have read northern Ontario, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland. Preferably I‘d like to read a non-fiction and fiction selection. I‘d love some suggestions! 😊Also, the photo is from a local beach where my boyfriend proposed. I thought it was a nice photo of one of our beautiful provincial beaches.

#ReadCanada PEI - somewhat cheating for my PEI selection, as this is a cookbook and covers all the Atlantic provinces not only PEI but whatever.

Not a cookbook I feel the need to own as there were only a few recipes I could see myself actually making, but neat to flip through. The mini-essays (on cod, lobster, etc) were well done and added good context. Mostly it made me want to road trip east again and eat all this food, rather than make it.

My #ReadCanada challenge wrap-up (1 July 2021): 5 of 13 provinces read. Spent most of my time in western Canada. I hit up Yukon, BC, Alberta, Ontario, and PEI. Thanks @MsMelissa for hosting!

BC for #ReadCanada

This was a good book and good audiobook. The political rhetoric made me mad, as I think it was intended to. I appreciated the emphasis on the intergenerational nature of trauma and the way that trauma gets repeated through history. No easy answers here.

Love this series. Is it weird that I totally want to visit Rockton?

Next up! My hold came in on the latest Rockton novel. I absolutely love this series. This will represent the #Yukon for #ReadCanada and is also my #BookSpin pick for the month. Add in beautiful weather for outdoor reading and it's celebration time 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Newfoundland for #ReadCanada (4 provinces left to go!)

First of all, I love this cover art. So gorgeous. Good book, too. The sense of place was great. The audio narration was very good.

Yukon for #ReadCanada

Not my usual genre, but that's why I do challenges. A solid read, with compelling characters. Kelley Armstrong has been on my radar of authors to check out for quite a while, so I was glad of the excuse to finally read one of hers.

I started my new cross-stitch and love it so far. How fitting to start my souvenir from Newfoundland while listening to the tagged book set in Newfoundland. #ReadCanada #audiostitching

I think this will be a good chunk of my #20in4 readathon this weekend. I'm feeling ambitious this round! Aiming to finish 4 books and, why not, hit the full 20 hours. We'll see how it goes, looking forward to it!
