5/5🌟I loved this book! It looked so deeply at the destructiveness of family secrets, grief and trauma.
These characters!! They were all so vivid and real to me. Add all the family dynamics going on and thos was so very engrossing! Original and excellently written as well. I was so interested in this book, its why I love these kinds of family stories, they are so emotionally absorbing! Reccomend checking this one out! #canlit #readthenorth

4/5🌟for this illuminating memoir! In Every Little Scrap And Wonder Funk reflects on her childhood, growing up in a Mennonite community in a small logging town in British Columbia. Telling stories of her girlhood and family. I found myself curious from the first page and ended up really enjoyed it! Her writing is tender, vivid and beautiful. #bookreview #readthenorth #canlit

Oh my gosh, I enjoyed this book as much as Son Of A Trickster. Eden Robinson is a master at quirky, witty, and the supernatural. #readthenorth #recommend #EdenRobinson

I loved this book! Eden Robinson‘s way with dialogue had me chuckling even when situations in the book were definitely not amusing. There was humour, there was depth to the characters, there was all the feels. #readthenorth #gillarprizefinalst #favourite #octoberread

Here is my book haul from the Saskatchewan Festival of Words held in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. I spent a lovely weekend listening to author readings, going to my first ever poetry slam, and attending a cookbook inspired rooftop dinner. #canlit #readthenorth #canadianauthors

Listened to this debut YA by Canadian author Nafiza Azah and really enjoyed it. Engaging setting, complex characters, and plenty of action. #readthenorth
