Book reviews from the left side of the bookshelf.
Welcome to Left on Read. This is where I note down what I’ve been reading and whether it was worth the time. Mostly politics, history, economics, and fiction that has something to say for itself.
The reviews should be short, subjective and not especially patient with bad arguments. If you’re looking for a carefully crafted literacy review and theory, this probably ain’t it chief. Nothing here is academic or official, just one random dude’s take, written in between everything else going on in this world.
All titles are purchased from independent bookstores in Canada.
