The Canadian Book Challenge

Canadian Book Challenge. 2nd annual and it ends on Canada Day 2009.
The rules are simple: read 13 Canadian books (books by Canadians and/or about Canadians) before next Canada Day (That's July 1st for you non-Canadians in the audience). Make sure to blog about each one! Participants will have their name entered in for some kick-ass prizes. Well, not really. If you've ever seen a Canadian gameshow, you know we're not big on monetary rewards.

I found it on your site. I can only count one so far. I just finished reading the latest by Kelley Armstrong.

I can count two so far: I suppose I will have to blog about them, eh?

1-Latest Giller winner Joseph Boyden's "Through Black Spruce"

2-Almost finished Jane Urquhart's "Away."

You'll love the challenge and without ralising it you will have devoure Canadian authors toget a belly full. I decided to limit my choices to west Quebec authors and zipped through 12 already. I think I'll continue to read everyone in my neighbourhood until the Wakefield library asks me to stop hoarding local authors.
