What's the Challenge?
"The Canadian Book Challenge is an annual online reading challenge in which participants from Canada and around the world aim to read and review 13 or more Canadian books in a one year span: Canada Day to Canada Day. Reviews must be posted online and participants are asked to share links to their reviews with other participants.
This year's theme is all about monumental Roadside Attractions - "Last year we were speed reading along our highways and byways, this year we're going to slow down and check out some of the oversized attractions along the way."
I've met the challenge every year so far! It's a wonderful way to sample the great writing Canada has to offer and discover new authors. Interested in joining? Further details and sign up info can be found here. I'll be using this post to track my progress.
