Thank you to Jennifer @ Funk-N-Fiction for submitting this week’s theme.
Here are ten books written by Canadian authors other than L.M. Montgomery or Margaret Atwood due to how well-known their books are across the globe.
There is another Canadian author I’m leaving off this list due to some terrible allegations that were made about them a few years ago. No need to give them any more attention if you ask me.
I’d rather focus on authors with good reputations – at least so far as I know – that you may not have heard of yet! If you see this little asterisk symbol * it means I have read something they’ve written. (I hope that’s the right word for that symbol. I believe it is).
2. Margaret Laurence *
5. Kelley Armstrong *
7. W.O. Mitchell *
9. Farley Mowat
10. Richard Wagamese *
11. Robert J. Sawyer *
I’m purposefully not saying what I’ve read from the authors I have tried from this list because I don’t want to influence your opinions if you decide to give anyone’s books a shot.
(And also because in at least one case I believe I’ve read one of their books but don’t remember enough about it to have a strong opinion in any direction anymore. Don’t you hate it when that happens? 😂)
It’s fun you featured some less popular authors! We all have likely heard of Montgomery so its nice to see some other names on a list like this. 🙂 Happy Top Ten Tuesday!
