BookishTrish @CouronneDhiver Back at you! 6y

CouronneDhiver Do you guys have a bunch of relatives coming by? We did a 13 hr round trip drive from our place to Sudbury to see my parents. It‘s “recovery” day today. Lol 6y

kspenmoll Enjoy your turkey day! 6y

BookishTrish @CouronneDhiver We‘re bringing the turkey and cranberry up to my parents‘ place. They‘re like 10 minutes away. 13 hours is HUGE. Enjoy recovery day! 6y

Indian Horse | Richard Wagamese

so-so

I wanted to love this more than I did. I was totally absorbed by the story of an Ojibway family trying to keep their children safe from the Canadian government and the journey of Saul into his new life. I was surprised when half the novel was suddenly a sportsing hockey novel, almost like the author got bored. Slow reveal of sexual abuse felt added in for the wrong reasons. I still want to read more by this author; any recommendations?

CouronneDhiver My favourite book!

Ragged Company

ReadingEnvy @CouronneDhiver thanks, I'll try it! 6y

BookishTrish @CouronneDhiver Was that your #theCanadiantour pick? 6y

CouronneDhiver Yes! @BookishTrish 😊 6y

Where Eagles Fly, Remember Me... | R S Hunter

Our #LitMail group was rocked yesterday by the news that 1 of our members, @TheCanuckReader lost her battle with ovarian cancer. She dedicated her life to founding a wildlife rescue Centre for which she was awarded Humanitarian Of The Year by the Canadian government for her work with injured eagles🦅 It would be awesome if we could all donate even a few dollars to her charity in the name of an amazing Litten

CouronneDhiver I didn‘t know her very well but I‘m heartbroken by this news... I wish our Litsy community could be immune to tragedy. 😢 Bless her soul. 6y

A Canadian Tour: A Reprint of Letters from the Special Correspondent of The Times | London Special Correspondent of the Times (in Canada, in Aug. 25, 1886 - Sept. 28, 1886)

Hi all! I‘m wondering what‘s going on with #theCanadiantour? Has anyone got any new books recently? I haven‘t had a book since before Christmas and want to make sure everyone is okay. 💜💚💛

ContraryMary, drokka, TheCanuckReader, Jazzper2, KassKho, CouronneDhiver, jbianchi

drokka I got one yesterday. That was the first I‘d had since Jan/Feb. 6y

CouronneDhiver I checked in with @KassKho a few days back... the books seem to be “stuck” at a particular place in the circle. She was going to reach out to him/her again. 6y

BookishTrish @drokka That‘s good that things are on the move again! 6y

BookishTrish ...at least in some parts of the circle @CouronneDhiver 6y

Jazzper2 I sent my book out to @drokka on Monday 6y

drokka @Jazzper2 That was super fast since I got it Tuesday! Sometimes Canada Post impresses me 😂 6y

Jazzper2 @drokka I always pay for the next day shipping. 🤗 6y

BookishTrish @Jazzper2 ❤️💚💛📚 6y

BookishTrish I haven‘t got a book since last year... @drokka @KassKho @Jazzper2 @jbianchi @CouronneDhiver @ContraryMary 6y

BookishTrish @TheCanuckReader 6y

jbianchi I sent out the book a few weeks ago to @ContraryMary ! Did you receive it?! 6y

Jazzper2 @BookishTrish I sent a book on at the beginning of this month. I haven‘t received a book since the one I passed along. 6y

CouronneDhiver Any news?? 6y

BookishTrish @CouronneDhiver Not on my end. The last book I received was before Christmas. Should we find out who has whose books? 6y

BookishTrish @KassKho What do you think? 6y

CouronneDhiver *sigh* I‘ll have to do it differently next time... I sent out my only copy of a favourite book and it doesn‘t sound like I‘ll ever see it again. 😐 6y

KassKho @BookishTrish @CouronneDhiver hey ladies! Don‘t give up hope! I‘ve spoken to the person again and she told me she was going to send them out. We‘re dealing with some pretty exceptional circumstances which is why it‘s taking so long 6y

CouronneDhiver Really?! Yay! I‘m glad all hope isn‘t lost here 😁😁😁 @KassKho 6y

BookishTrish @KassKho My fingers are crossed that the circumstances are exceptionally good but busy rather than tough. Much love to all 6y

Jazzper2 @kassko @BookishTrish @couronneDhiver That is great news! 6y

It‘s day three of This Workweek Has 11 Days and I‘m wiped. I am so grateful to my #theCanadiantour and #buddyread friend @CouronneDhiver for the surprise #bookmail - it really brightens up these rainy days. And check out those socks! 🎶🎶🎶 Thanks, Danielle 😘

BookishTrish PS: Neither the husband or I have read this one and we‘re both Man Booker International Prize fans and looking forward to it. I called dibs. 7y

Tamra Great writer! 7y

CouronneDhiver Yay! I‘m glad it got there safely... I‘ve never sent a pkg direct from the online store before... Did they remember to exclude my receipt? 😂 7y

BookishTrish I didn‘t see any receipt - but they sent multiple copies of your note, which was sweet! @CouronneDhiver 7y

CouronneDhiver Hahaha! Well, I guess I‘ll know for next time. 😂😂 7y
