Runaway

Book 27 was Runaway by Alice Munro.

Incredibly, this is the first year I have ever read any of Munro's short stories and frankly, I don't know what took me so long. I love her writing style, her landscapes are familiar and the characters are interesting. If you've never read Munro before this is a good place to start as it's easy to see why she is called one of the greatest writers of our day.

  1. I highly recommend the movie "Away from her", which was based on one of Munro's stories.

    Also, the bookstore "Munro's" in Victoria was owned by her former husband.
