Canada Reads

Did any of you follow the Canada Reads 2008? You can read more about it at http://www.cbc.ca/canadareads/. This year's winner was King Leary by Paul Quarrington. The website at http://www.cbc.ca/canadareads/about.html states, "Canada Reads is a week-long radio show hosted by Jian Ghomeshi. In this annual literary bun-fight, five celebrity panelists are asked to defend their favourite Canadian works of fiction. Day by day, books are voted off the list, until one panelist triumphs with the book for Canada to read this year."
