Book Review: John Irving, “A Prayer For Owen Meany” by Krista L’Ecuyer November 29, 2011
CFN – I came across my first John Irving novel by accident. Ashamedly, I have a tendency to judge a book by its cover (in the most literal sense), and when I first laid eyes on Irving’s ‘A Widow for One Year’, strewn haphazardly on the shelf at the thrift store, there was something about [...]
Ashley March Reviews – Direct Red by Gabriel Weston – November 25, 2011 Cornwall Ontario
CFN – I got this book delivered to me last week and have since finished it. It was a great and enjoyable read! Direct Red tells the true tales of what goes on behind the scenes in surgery. Leaving her office job and everything behind in her 20′s to focus on medical school, Gabriel became [...]

I admit I had a little problem getting into the essence of the book as what he speaks about as adventures when he was just a child [...]
Needle Publishing Says, “Happy Father’s Day – Bang!” E- Book Review by Roy Berger – June 22, 2011 – Cornwall Ontario
