Hi, John. Just discovered your site. It's nice to find someone that appreciates Canadian authors.
I just finished the 2009 Giller Prize-Winning Book The Bishop's Man by Linden MacIntyre and I LOVED it.
However, I have been too busy lately to really write as many reviews as I once did. Hence, I cannot post a link to a review.
Cheers!
