I just added my 7th review. I have a ways to go, but nearly my whole reading pile at the moment is Canadian authors, so I think I will get to 13 in the next couple months. There is a new book coming out that I am excited about, but it may not be available in the states until after July: Cinnamon Toast and the End of the World (set in Nova Scotia in the 1980s).
At the double double level!! Five books done, a Newfoundland book sitting here, waiting to be read next.
Just added book #20, even though I am listed at 7 on the sidebar.

I just finished 8/13. I think Anne of Green Gables is next up. Or maybe Alias Grace.
Sarah: Sorry. If you haven't been updating your progress in the comments of the roundup posts, the number hasn't been changing (that's what I go by). I update them all at the end of each month.
I have reached 8 of 13.
