Seth Rogen is Canadian? Mind blown!

He is, indeed! There is a lot of Canadian content in that book, too.

Thanks @ Allison hikes the bookwoods for your post about The Goodreads Choice Awards. Your reminder had me check out the nominations and as always, it's a good source for great books that haven't been on my radar.

I was pleasantly surprised at the diversity of the authors this year and/or the diversity of the book's characters and settings of content.

Thank you also @ Susan B for pointing out some other Canadian authors I have yet to read.

I also noticed 1 more Canadian author in POETRY -
Jasmin Kaur author o] If I Tell You the Truth no relation to Rupi Kaur -
