| | | | "The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead Despite all the hype, a very powerful story of a black boy caught up in forces outside of his control in the early 1960s. The powerful twist at the end is a pretty effective gut punch too. I grew up in a very multicultural area in Canada so reading these stories of cities segregated for Blacks and Whites seem like science fiction to me. I still enjoy learning about this chapter of America through these stories though, as they help give me a historical context to understand a bit better the tensions that they're still having today. | |

| | | | "Hark! A Vagrant by Kate Beaton I don't know what it is about these zany comic strips I like the most, but this Beaton gal is sure funny. These comics are a mixture of riffing on classic literature, history, and pop culture. Be warned this is nerdy, bookish, intelligent humour. There is the occasional fart joke, but mostly is sort of high brow stuff. If you don't read many books, especially classic literature or history, you may not get all the references. | |
