YA Canadian 2011 Releases

Canadian literature, particularily anything in the YA genre, is often underestimated and forgotten in the world of book bloggers. With USA, the UK, and Australia dominating the publishing world, Canadian authors are left without many followers or a fan base. One of my original goals when I started The Zealous Reader was to showcase and review more Canadian novels.
