P. S. Last year, like you I enjoyed Liisa Kovala's Like Water for Weary Souls. I also read Kim Fahner's The Donoghue Girl, also set in Sudbury, Ontario. Both books are historical and richly evocative. I learned a lot about Sudbury's past, and one day I hope to get there.
Thank you for this! I have The Bewitching, having heard the author speak at the Ottawa International Writers Festival. It looks like a great read. (She's not Canadian, I believe, but I understand that as a Canadian you're recommending her.)
As for my owk Canlit reading, at the moment I'm finishing Hollay Ghadery's The Unravelling of Ou. So poetic and original! Next, I plan to read Jennifer Chevalier’s The Winter Witch.
Just added some new holds to my library account- thanks!
