July‘s #ChristiesCapers returns us to Hercule Poirot. Considered to be one of the best mysteries of all time, I think one can argue that we truly see Christie‘s writing genius in this.

Hey Littens,
I hope the motivation to read some classics is not affected by the heat (at least over here in Germany it is very, very hot). 🥵🌴

Our July #buddyread is Andrea Wulf‘s 2015 biography of Alexander Von Humboldt, following the Prussian naturalist from childhood through to his travels in Europe and Latin America.

Our July #BuddyRead is VW‘s 1927 novel, To the Lighthouse. We meet the Ramsey family at their summer retreat in the Hebridean isles over a ten year period.
Critics have claimed its themes to be about art, WW1, time, family and connection. My experiences of reading VW, so far, lead me to expect a highly skilled novel accumulating all the above themes in a most concise way. I can‘t wait.

Helen Knott does not have as many books as some of the other Canadian authors we have explored but she does have these two memoirs. Either memoir will be a good but hard read. Please let me know which book you would prefer to read for the July/August read of #OhCanada.
