~ When we created this collage of pink covers, we also went on a google journey to discover the true meaning of the colour Millennial Pink. (We still don’t know what it is…)~ In Read This, Then That, we compared Jen Powley’s Just Jen (Roseway Publishing) and Heidi Redl’s A Quiet Roar (Caitlin Press), two memoirs about living with MS.~ Author Daniel Coleman of Yardwork (Wolsak & Wynn) shares Hamiltonian history in Where in Canada.~ We got some tips from Sophie Bédard’s graphic novel Almost Summer (Pow Pow Editions). Where was this book when we were teens?

Around the Web

~ Readers of The Globe and Mail have bees in their bonnets over these idioms.~ Remember the golden rule “i before e, except after c”? Well, this article in the Washington Post debunks that hard.~ Could it be? US Libraries have more visits from millennials than any other age group.
