One of the best books I’ve read about Toronto history and Canadian history. So many of these events I’ve studied before but I’ve never really been able to understand them because I couldn’t envision them. The author has an amazing writing style that gives a lot of the social history, so it’s easy to imagine what happened. Lots of great Indigenous and Black history!

Omg, this one is so good. I didn’t think I would enjoy it this much.

I really like this series, so it’s nice to see this extension with a book. I re-watched the whole TV show before I read it and it helped me.

It’s picking up a lot. I tried to read this many years ago and I didn’t get into it ...but after watching the series again on TV I’m more into it now.

So many different things happening ...wondering how they’re all connected. He paints such a clear picture in my head it’s easy to read.

I’ve been recommended to read this by 2 people. I love the way he paints with words. He’s still setting the plot but I’ve been told it will get weird soon.

The romance part is heating up with that guy who might be a bf ...but I’m enjoying this for the publishing industry work.

This is very well written. Again, the content is right on when it comes to the publishing industry. In fact, I’m surprised Japan’s industry is so similar to Canada’s ...but their print runs are sooo much higher ....if those numbers are truthful.

Having worked in the publishing industry I find this fascinating. They’re not backing away from all the fancy jargon and they’re showing what it is really like.

Why can I never remember which character is which. I’m following along but I’m a bit lost. For a second there the guy from the other book showed up and I’m like, “I know him.” Then I start guessing again. 😜

Again, I’m kind of lost at which character is which but it doesn’t seem to matter because the plot isn’t very complicated ...but still enjoyable. I think it might have a bit of a more sophisticated twist soon.

Filled with action ...I like the idea of the whole plot.

This was a total impulse buy. I’ve never seen this book before and I found it at a bookstore tonight. I had to wait in a coffee shop and I read 3/4 of it. It’s adorably cute book about a boy figuring himself out ...reminds me a bit of my own high school experience. I like that the boy is more of a bear rather than the same type of boy you always see in BL books.

Wasn’t sure when to read this in context of the other books. It’s just really short clips in different time periods. It’s cute but it doesn’t really pull you in because they’re so short.

I’m a little bit confused about these new characters and what they’re doing. How do they know Maya? ...and why are they giving opportunities? Why did he ever think he could be a librarian?

This is the second volume ...new characters adding to the plot.

I like the way this relationship is developing!

It’s so cute to start ...a bit of mystery as to what is happening too.

Good. Starting to get some explanations. Still difficult to follow all the houses and names but I’m liking that it makes some sense.

I like this more than the first one.

It was all sex to start ...but now it’s developing some plot.

I’m getting lost in the names ...sometimes they use their last names ...sometimes their first names. It’s all about titles and status. I get lost.
