Books are easy to wrap! And exceedingly well priced for the many hours of entertainment they provide. Batteries not required.

@MarkBourrie @debdundas @TorontoStar @globeandmail Oh, I actually quit writing for the Globe last week! A new (book related) project on the front burner...

Not your usual #books of the year list. Authors celebrated by @writerstrust in 2020 recommend books old and new that are important to them. A fabulous list: part books you likely already love, part gems you've yet to discover: https://t.co/JXMssnUTxn

And the 2-car garage :) Definitely no million-dollar kitchens, no. Probably a year from now this house will be 3 homes, maybe 4 if a laneway house is added over or in place of the garage. (No solace for you if you're shopping to buy though - it's all madness I'm sorry)

@MsBeckyToyne You’re right I missed the tub in the listing my agent sent to me but there’s no second million dollar kitchen hiding in the house - the “second kitchen” also looks like shit

[Becky Toyne @MsBeckyToyne]

Agree price and kitchen are silly, but am also pro-facts, which this thread is not. Parking = 2-car garage. Bathtub clearly visible in bathroom. Kitchen = 1 of 2.

@jgombita I have no idea. (I have no connection to the piece...)

[Becky Toyne @MsBeckyToyne]

@jgombita @CBCDay6 Are you asking if it’s YA?

[Becky Toyne @MsBeckyToyne]

Reader, I loved it.

[CBC Day 6 @CBCDay6]

Congratulations to @Doug_D_Stuart on winning the 2020 Booker Prize for his debut novel, Shuggie Bain.
