Book Reviews

I typically post between two and three book reviews a week. Please refer to my review policy if you’d like to submit a book for consideration. I invite you to subscribe to my newsletter to get a summary of my reviews once  a month.

Video Book Review: I Hear She’s a Real Bitch + Jerry Seinfeld

Video Book Review: I Hear She’s a Real Bitch + Jerry Seinfeld

So I’ve done something a bit different with this Booktube review. I typically record 60 second(ish) book reviews, which is quite challenging. But because I was on vacation when I read these books, I let loose a little and extended my vlog to 4 minutes! (apologies to reading in bed for using the ‘vlog’ term-give…

Summer Reads Threesome Just Keeps on Giving

I recently hosted the final day of my summer reads threesome book club, which SHOULD mean I’m about to take a little break from ‘book clubbing’. But I don’t believe in breaks because reading good books is a year-round activity for me so Wordfest and I are continuing the book club into the Fall and…

Radio Segment: Great Titles and Bad Behaviour

So the theme for my latest radio segment was ‘great titles’. Now some of you may assume I’m running out of ideas, and scraping the bottom of the barrel for themes to group books into, but I’m actually quite proud of this one because it’s something that we don’t normally talk about; the title of…

Book Review: Rich People Problems by Kevin Kwan

Book Review: Rich People Problems by Kevin Kwan

I read Rich People Problems by Kevin Kwan in a matter of days, racing through the 400-ish pages in the heart of cottage country, Muskoka. It was a fitting place to read a book titled ‘Rich People Problems’ considering that’s about all I encountered while there. Complaints I overheard at a restaurant included: “My boat isn’t…

Book Review: Beyond The Wild River by Sarah Maine

Book Review: Beyond The Wild River by Sarah Maine

I didn’t have huge expectations for this book before I picked it up. Beyond the Wild River by Sarah Maine is historical fiction with a small side of romance which as my dear readers will know, isn’t something I usually get excited about. The fact that it took place in the ‘wilds of Canada’ did…

Book Review: Little Deaths by Emma Flint

Book Review: Little Deaths by Emma Flint

Clearly I am some sort of masochist because I picked up Little Deaths by Emma Flint knowing it was a book based on the real-life murders of two small children. Did I think this was going to be an easy book to read? Of course not, yet I read it anyway because my curiosity was…

Video Book Review: One Brother Shy by Terry Fallis

Video Book Review: One Brother Shy by Terry Fallis

So I shot this video on vacation in a rental home, therefore the lighting is terrible and the sound is echo-ey. My bad. Oh, and Smokey isn’t with me, because my husband draws the line at taking our cats on vacation with us (sigh). I’m reviewing Terry Fallis’s latest book One Brother Shy, which I…

Book Review: The Change Room by Karen Connelly

Oohhhh boy. I’m struggling with how I’m going to word this review because The Change Room by Karen Connelly is full of…sex. A lot of it. Not like, harlequin romance sex where almost every other page is full of sweaty bodies, but like, at least 5 fairly descriptive sex scenes: some between a man and…

Radio Segment: Bleak and Bleaker

My latest segment for the CBC focused on memoirs, two in particular. You can listen to it here. Bleaker House by Nell Stevens (which Smokey has read and adored) and You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me by Sherman Alexie. After listening to the recording just now, I’ve realized how depressing these two books…

Anne Logan’s Advice for Authors

So I’ve been doing this blogging thing for a few years now, four to be exact. And before I started this blog, I was the programming manager for a literary festival. And before I did that, I was a book publicist for an award-winning publisher. And before I did that, I completed a graduate certificate…

Volume 2 of Summer Reads Threesome Keeps Them Coming Back for More

Volume 2 of Summer Reads Threesome Keeps Them Coming Back for More

As I’ve mentioned perhaps once or twice before, I’ve got my own book club. And this book club is the best book club in the world, with the best people organizing it, and the best people taking part in the discussions. Last week we had our second meeting where we discussed The Substitute by Nicole…

Radio Segment: All in the Family

Radio Segment: All in the Family

This past week I spoke about books that deal with the subject of family. I realize this is a pretty broad topic and can encompass most everything that has ever been written, but I used it as an excuse to talk about my favourite picture book ever: A Family is a Family is a Family,…
