As always, the best thing about book blogging is the bookish community, online and in 'real' life. I have loved getting to know so many passionate readers and bloggers and writers and reviewers and publishers. Thank you for reading and commenting and visiting and chatting and writing and publishing! 🙂
ATLANTIC CANADA
Eight years ago I decided to challenge myself to read more books from Atlantic Canada. As a result, I have read 247 books from Atlantic Canada in the last 8 years.
#of Atlantic Canadian books read: 39 (last year, 36)
% of books read from Atlantic Canada: 37% (last year, 31%)
Newfoundland: 8 (last year, 10)
Nova Scotia: 22 (last year, 21)
New Brunswick: 6 (last year, 2)
Prince Edward Island: 3 (last year, 2)
STANDOUTS
(not necessarily published this year, and in no particular order)
THE REST OF CANADA AND BEYOND!
%CanLit: 79% (last year, 72%)
Out of 79% CanLit, 47% is from Atlantic Canada (last year, 43%)
Last year, I highlighted 39 books and challenged myself to keep it down to just 30 this year. And I have done it! I'm not going lower again next year, though - I know myself too well.
Just for you… a Top 10 list (in no particular order)…
My goal this year was to get this end-of-2023 post up by the end of January. I've made it by the skin of my teeth. Now for the Christmas tree that's still up (and decorated) in the living room...
