The Best Laid Plans by Terry FallisMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I have to admit that I do not enjoy reading or talking about Canadian politics. I avoid it like a zombie invasion. So when I read the first few paragraphs of the prologue, my heart fell to my ankles. Since it was book on the book club reading list, I decided to stick it out. And I am SO glad I did!
TBLP is hilarious as well as informative and heart-warming. I kept saying to my sweetheart, "I can't believe I'm enjoying a book about politics!" Fallis' writing is fresh and upbeat, his characters complex.
An excellent novel and deserving winner of Canada Reads 2011.
