Knowing so many of you share my love of #books, maybe you can help me find a new one to get lost in. I just finished “All the Light We Cannot See” by Anthony Doerr which was beautiful.

We haven’t compiled a good reading list together in months…

What stories have you discovered or rediscovered lately? 📚

@Sheril I'm just about 100 pages into @JuliusGoat's novel The Revisionaries and it's taken me this long to decide whether I like it or not. (I do, and I hope it can maintain its mojo.)

I just finished watching the first (and only, apparently) season of The Peripheral, and if you're looking for a fresh take on a time travel1 story, then check out the William Gibson novel it's based on. (It's a bit unsettling, though.)

@Sheril I also recently read Ducks by Kate Beaton. It's a graphic-novel autobiography, the story of the two years she spent in the oil sands of northern Alberta. It won the Canada Reads competition last year, and it's a very good novel. Easy to read, but not easy, if you know what I mean.
