How does a nation convince its children that death is more valuable than life?
That’s the haunting question at the heart of The Small Ones, the Giller-shortlisted novel by Nazanine Hozar. Following her acclaimed debut novel Aria, Hozar draws on her own childhood memories of growing up in wartime Tehran to write a mythic, heartbreaking epic about young boys caught in the machinery of the Iran-Iraq war. It’s a story that’s part fable, part myth, part hero’s epic... and ultimately, it’s about what stays with us long after childhood is over.
Today on #Bookends Mattea Roach to talk about experiencing violence so young, adding elements of mythology to the novel and how we can stop failing children on a societal level.
You can find the full episode on CBC Listen, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. #books #podcast

Canada Reads finalist author Joss Richard stopped by The Next Chapter with Antonio Michael Downing to dish on her recent novel, Let’s Kiss and Tell — and reflect on how writing and reading romance has impacted her life.

Why should you know your birth story?
Amanda Peters’ debut novel, The Berry Pickers, was a massive hit. Now, Peters is back with The Birthing Tree, a moving novel about family secrets, midwifery and reclaiming traditional Indigenous birth practices. The novel follows Aliet, a Mi’kmaq woman who must return to her family home in rural Nova Scotia after her grandmother dies.
Peters joined #Bookends with Mattea Roach to talk about her interest in midwifery, the nuances of being white-passing and highlighting the beauty of Nova Scotia.

TALL, DARK & LITERARY? 📚❤️
Well, this is one for the books.
A huge thank you to @cbcbooks for featuring BODA and our beloved Bookshop Meet-Cutes in this gorgeous piece on the rise of literary love stories.
When we first dreamed up our bookshop singles nights, we wanted to bring a little old-fashioned romance back into modern dating. Less swiping, more stolen glances between the shelves. Less small talk, more conversations worth remembering. And perhaps a handwritten love note tucked inside the pages of someone’s favourite book.
We believe the best love stories aren’t always the ones you read. Sometimes, they’re the ones you get to live. And the loveliest part? As the article so beautifully captures, people aren’t just leaving with potential dates. They’re leaving with friendships, connections and whole new chapters of their lives.
NEW YORK & TORONTO! 🇺🇸🇨🇦
We’re bringing our iconic BODA Bookshop Meet-Cutes to BOTH cities this Monday night, and we’d absolutely love you to be part of the story.
30s+ @bookbarto we wanna see more single men in their 30s and beyond - women’s tickets sold out!
@bookclubbar only a few last minute tickets left, WILL BE A SELL OUT!
Come alone. Bring your favourite book. Leave room for a plot twist.
Tickets in our bio. 💌
With love,
BODA xo

It is hard to believe that it has been a week since Ann Cleeves and Mattea Roach were here. We thought it would be fun to revisit the evening with this amazing photos taken by Jeorge Sadi of the CBC.
Thanks again to Ann Cleeves, Mattea Roach, and everyone at Bookends with Mattea Roach, CBC Books, CBC East, our amazing local CBC crew, Publishers Group Canada, Pan MacMillan, PEI LIbrary Services, Encore, Delta Prince Edward, our volunteers, and our amazing audience for making it such a wonderful evening.
If you missed An Evening with Ann Cleeves, watch for the conversation on CBC Bookends and on CBC Gem in the New Year.

Bonnie Garmus says she came to poetry “kicking and screaming,” but her new novel is about why we need it more than ever.
From the author of Lessons in Chemistry, Garmus’ latest book, Peck & Peck, follows a young man named Batter Gray who starts working at a prestigious poetry magazine. Batter is consumed by poetry, but it’s not an easy path to take in a world obsessed with profits not to mention the complicated private affairs of his new colleagues.
Today, on #Bookends with Mattea Roach, Garmus talks about her interest in twins and why she loves the impractical.
