    I so want to read The Virgin Cure, and can't wait until it comes out over here in America! Great list today, and I love the way you arranged the book covers!

    Mmmm...I haven't read any of these authors. I read a lot of Canadian authors for middle-grade books, though.

    I don't know if I've read any Canadian authors this year - I generally don't pay attention to where an author's from.
