Reviews

[Kristen Gets Shelfed · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was read for school. It was really interesting, especially because it was multi-cultural Canadian plays. However, this isn't something I would read for 'fun'.

There were also some monologues I enjoyed more than others and that skewed my rating.

The book absolutely has opened a new horizon up to me about Canadian playwriting. You can see a collection of really good and short piece as a monolog in the book that is able to motivate you to follow the writers and read whole plays.
