What is your top summer reading suggestion? Live

by Melinda Dalton

Two 'off-the-beaten-path' suggestions: "A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian" by Marina Lewycka (will have you laughing out loud) and "Hemingway's Chair" by Michael Palin of Monty Python fame. Incidentally, Hemingway wrote standing up so it's not that kind of chair. It's his deep-sea fishing chair from his boat, Pilar... A great book with a terrific ending.David Fishervia Facebook at 1:01 PM yesterday

"Ken Follett's Pillars of the Earth: a historical novel set in the 1100s about the building of a cathedral in England" - Victor

You must read The Shack by Wm. Paul Young, if you haven't already. Difficult at first because of the suject matter, but you must read to the end. Paradigm shift! AngieAngie Deslauriersvia Facebook at 12:38 PM yesterday

@CBCRadioNoon I'm glad Richard King mentioned Dickens. I'm reading The Pickwick Papers this summer. #English #literature

Blind Faith by Ben Elton! funny, smart, a commentary on our culture of over-sharing. Not a new release, but well worth it!Natalie Beevia Facebook at 12:14 PM yesterday
