Attack of the Best Lists 2023: CBC's Fiction and Nonfiction Picks and RA for All Scheudling Notes

 This post is part of my year end "Attack of the Best Lists" coverage. To see every post in my "Attack of the Best Lists 2023" coverage [and more backlist best of the year options] you can click here. 

Today I have the Canadian Broadcast Company's (Canada's version of NPR) Best Canadian Nonfiction  and Fiction lists.

I love looking at Canada for suggestions, especially for my avid and/or hard to please readers because I often find them books that are great reads but that others might not have heard about yet. We are very lucky to share a border with a large country, with a vibrant publishing landscape and avid readers, that speaks the same language as us. This is not very common throughout the world.

These lists are great to add to your Attack of the Best Lists repertoire. And every book listed is annotated and there are links to further information, from interviews with the authors on CBC to info about other books by those authors, and even more lists. It really is a treasure trove of resources you can use now or all year long.

And now for some scheduling notes:

  • RA for All will be publishing every day this week.
  • Both blogs will have Becky's Best Horror Books posted sometime this week.
  • RA for All: Horror will be off from the Best Horror Books post until 1/11 but when it comes back, I will have an ARC for the finale of the Jade Daniels Trilogy. So maybe you want to get entered ASAP for the #HorrorForLibraries giveaway. Click here to see how to enter.
  • RA for All will be off 12/25 and 26 and will return 12/27 with a big announcement of a brand new program and 12/28 with my "Best Books I Read in 2023 post
  • After 12/28 I am off until 1/8 for vacation with the family.
  • 1/8 and 1/9 will be my annual posts where I assess my goals from 2023 and then set my goals for 2024.
I know people are working weird schedules over the next few weeks, so whenever you encounter this post I hope you have a wonderful end of 2023 and a safe start to 2024.
