Rainy days make good reading days. It also happens to be Canadian National Independent Bookstore Day. If we're not picking up a book at a Little Free Library, then it's at the bookstore downtown, A Different Drummer Books. A Burlington gem.

It's a nice summer morning for a walk to a Little Free Library. We've added Mary Lawson's Crow Lake which is one of our favourite novels. A tragic story set in Northern Ontario with rich storytelling and characters. This book is hard to put down. A beautiful read.

Little Free Libraries continue to grow in Burlington. It's estimated there are least 113 libraries throughout the city. One that opened earlier this year is a 20 minute walk from ours along Centennial Trail at 523 Wicklow Road. If you're out for a walk or bike ride along the trail, be sure to detour off and check this one out.

Brad has added one his favourite reads of 2025 to the library this morning. Wayne Johnston's memoir, Jennie's Boy, which chronicles his 6 month illness as a child in 1960s Newfoundland. Rich, witty and humorous characters. Jennie's Boy was a 2025 Canada Reads selection and Brad felt it deserved a better showing than it received by the panel of judges.
