    I got this book for christmas this year as a present from my sister. It was the best gift I got because it has opened up a whole new world of great stories for me. Since then I bought copies for some of my friends. I really recommend that you get a copy.

    I also picked up a copy in New Brunswick this weekend (Hi Guys!) and love it. This will make for a great Christmas gift for those looking to get their friends or family members interested in our writers and books.

    I had seen a lot os stuff in the media about this book and so I decided to pick it up this weekend and I wasn't disappointed at all. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about this part of the world. There are so many amazing writers here! I really had no idea that some of these books were from the east coast or that so many awesome stories came from here. Way to go guys for bringing it all together for me in one fantastic collection.
