I know that many of you have been following along with my book reads this year, and I finally read The English Patient which has been on my must-read list for a while. All I can say is that it is probably the best book I read this year. The story of the patient in Italy totally drew me in, and it was nice that a couple of the characters were from Toronto, my home town. I usually don’t love Canadian fiction but this is probably the best I’ve read. I can’t wait to read more by Michael Ondaatje.
