June Book Club Pick
With sharp turns and a provocative perspective, Zoe Whittall captures three generations of very different women. Their definitions of family, romance, gender, and love are tested as they seek out lives that are nothing less than spectacular.
Why We Love It:
“Three women, three different paths, rock ‘n’ roll, cults, and intergenerational relationships—a spectacular and timely story you’ll want to talk to your friends about. Told by one of Canada’s most riveting voices, this book is compulsively readable.”
—Amanda, Category Manager
May Book Club Pick
Our May pick is Xiran Jay Zhao’s captivating new page-turner about a young female pilot who gets the
revenge that nobody was expecting. With a unique blend of Chinese history and mecha science fiction, this YA
novel tells an inspiring story that people of all ages will connect with instantly.
Why We Love It:
“A groundbreaking protagonist, a triangle of characters who keep you cheering them on, and an adventure
that is fuelled by vengeance—but also love. Whether it is the immersive world that captures you first, the
relationships, the beautiful writing, or the edge-of-your-seat plot turns, you won’t be able to put this book
down.”
—Amanda, Category Manager
Non-Fiction
“There is so much to unpack in this book. The author defines and articulates a difficult set of experiences and emotions she calls ‘minor feelings,’ that are part of the everyday reality of being a racialized person. She also writes about how capitalism has historically been used to create a wedge between racialized communities, and the precarious status of the model minority.”
Fiction
“I believe this story challenges us to confront how we socially construct and perform gender, race, and culture on a day-to-day basis, and urges us to be more than just not racist but anti-racist.”
