Eliza Reid
Author, Death on the Island
I just finished Chris Hadfield's book An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth — I read that there was a quote in the book that I wanted to use in another book I'm writing. I read the whole thing to see if I could find the quote, and it turns out it was one of those fake internet things. It hadn't been on my radar that much to read, but I really enjoyed it — I'd definitely recommend it.

Winnipeg Jets Game Days
On Winnipeg Jets game days, hockey writers Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe send news, notes and quotes from the morning skate, as well as injury updates and lineup decisions. Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop.
And I just started a book called Cobalt, which is by former Member of Parliament Charlie Angus, all about the mineral and the town Cobalt. It came out at the same time as (Reid's first book) Secrets of the Sprakkar; I bought it at a bookstore where I was doing an event, and I just hadn't managed to start reading it yet. So I'm only one chapter into that.
