So, it’s finally summer! Finally! Summer! And with a job I’m growing to love so far away from home (also my inability to drive) resulting in a 1.5+1.5 hours daily commute, my Kobo Touch is fast becoming my bestest friend ever. That and I compulsively bought eBooks online with every intent to read them, but no time, over the past academic year. Nevertheless, here we are! And here are the highlights of my list (some read, some in progress, all summer fun, in no specific order):
- Curses! A F**ked-Up Fairy Tale by J.A. Kazimer
- Harperland: The Politics of Control by Lawrence Martin
- Speaking Out Louder: Ideas That Work for Canadians by Jack Layton
- The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
- The Knights of Derbyshire by Marsha Altman
- The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins
- A Game of Thrones series by George R. R. Martin
- The Next 100 Years: A Forecast for the 21st Century by George Friedman
- Le Fantôme de l’Opéra by Gaston Leroux
- Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
- Le Petit Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery
- I Never Knew There Was A Word For It by Adam de Boinod
- Homework for Grown-ups: Everything You Learned at School… and Promptly Forgot by E. Foley
- Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire
- I’ve Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella
Wish me luck!
Also, any thoughts? More suggestions?
Weird contraption to straighten the nose bridge. I think.
Fresh Prince Intro of the Day: The Fresh Prince himself recently visited the BBC’s The Graham Norton Show, where he rapped his legendary intro – but now without a major assist from the all-British audience.

No escaping hobo cop: New tactic aims to catch drivers using cellphones on the road
A scruffy looking man — hoodie up, clutching a tattered sign scrawled on a scrap of cardboard — shuffled up to a car at a busy intersection in this city west of Toronto. Drivers instinctively looked away.
But this sign’s wording was different from the usual begging appeal: “My name is Constable Mike Cairns. If you are reading this sign you are about to get a cell phone ticket.”
Across Canada over the past several weeks, police officers have been dressing as panhandlers and clutching cardboard signs to mimic the curbside come-ons in order to get close enough to see drivers using handheld phones while driving. (Photos: David Ritchi for National Post; Handout)
