Welcome to My Bookshelf!

I am an avid reader, writer and lover of literary works. This blog is my instrument to discuss books, authors and news in the literary world. My Bookshelf is open to reading ARCs though I am not accepting ebooks at this time. If you are an author or publisher seeking a review, please visit my Review Policy under Pages in the sidebar.

The Value of the Arts

“It is only through education and art—through music, through books, through theatre—that we will find the wisdom to trade hate for compassion, to trade competition for cooperation. Education and the fine arts engage the human mind, forcing us to think in new ways, forcing us to use our most powerful tool for progress…our imagination.” ~ Lois Hole, former Lieutenant Governor General of Alberta, author, gardener, woman extraordinaire
