“I loved Hernan Diaz's writing style - he's very immersive and eloquent with his writing. I also really enjoyed how it was multiple books in one, telling the same story but from different vantage points and styles. It was really well done and reminded me a little bit of Amor Towles, another author who I adore and has the most beautiful and scenic writing.”—Kristain

“This is must-read for anyone in the book industry. Absolutely eviscerating and so well written, it feels like it could have been pulled from the headlines. 10/10 recommend.”—Deandra

“I finished this book last week and have been chasing the high of reading it since. I absolutely recommend if you like gothics, and the horror in fairy tales.”—Harleigh

“With empathy and a clear-eyed perspective on identity politics, the author (a second-generation daughter of Greek immigrants) has crafted a meaningful reminder that there’s no one way to be Canadian.”—Jacques
View eBookMoon of the Crusted Snow
“This has absolutely got its hooks in me. Feels like one of Stephen King's books where the supernatural event is in the background, and we're riveted by the power plays among members of a community. I think Rice writes dialogue as deftly as King, too. And Billy Merasty's voicing for the members of this Anishinaabe rez community is dialed right in.”—Nathan

“I absolutely adored the love story of Claire and Delilah in Delilah Green Doesn’t Care. Not only does it have all the components I love in a romance (sexy, funny, passionate) but it was just so tender and heartfelt that I could not put it down until I reached the conclusion. A must read queer romance that’s got it all.”—Myranda
