I thought an alphabet game where we post something related to Canadian books or authors would be fun. For example, one person might post A is for Ann-Marie MacDonald, the next person could say B is for The Blind Assassin.
A is for Margaret Atwood.

Janice (jamasc) G is for Graham Greene (not to be confused with the author of the same name) is an accomplished actor who acted in the movie adaptation of Lost in the Barrens.

That may be a stretch for the rules of the game, but it eventually gets around to a Canadian book.
