Wrapped up Canada Reads yesterday morning—Day 4. I was in the hot seat defending the book I believe all Canadians should read: The Cure for Drowning by @loghanish

The last four days have been such a trip. I’ve loved this process and feel so proud we have a show like Canada Reads (@cbcbooks) in Canada.

The other panelists (@stevedangle @morgannbook @itsjoshdelacruz#ellemáijátailfeathers) were incredible—true champions of their books. And all of their books were fantastic. That said, I’m over the moon The Cure for Drowning won. First-time author @loghanish is so deserving. I hope this book opens hearts and minds—and that you love it as much as I do.

In my opening statement, I said: Reading is a passport. It can take you anywhere—even places you’ll never go. It can take you back in time, into relationships and bodies and identities unlike your own. It can introduce you to people you may have never met, people you may not understand, and shows you that you are capable of loving them. I think The Cure for Drowning should win because it does all of this. It took me to a time I wasn’t alive, into a family not like mine, across the world and back, introducing me to new things along the way.

You can watch all four lively debates on the Tegan and Sara and CBC Books YouTube channels.

A massive thank you to my fellow champions for being so kind, open, generous, and inspiring, and to the Canada Reads and CBC Books teams—and everyone I crossed paths with this week. It was a joy.

Excited to get home and get back to work. Sara and I have new music coming, I’ve got a book out in September, and a new Dream Dump drops Tuesday. I’ll share a bigger post-mortem on Substack—if you’re not following us there, you should be.

Keep reading.

Charity organizations are all about doing good. What could possibly go wrong?

Sharon Bala’s new novel, Good Guys, is all about how philanthropy operates in a world that runs on money. The book stars a fictional charity called Children of the World. It’s an international aid organization founded by a former rock star with some questionable motives.

On #Bookends with Mattea Roach, Bala delves into the dark side of NGOs, the connection between charity and faith and the complex desire to be one of the “good guys.” #podcast #Literature #books

Guarda le Storie di Instagram in Segreto

Il Visualizzatore Storie Instagram è uno strumento facile da usare che ti permette di guardare e salvare le storie, video, foto o IGTV di Instagram in modo segreto. Con questo servizio puoi scaricare contenuti e goderteli offline ogni volta che vuoi. Se trovi qualcosa di interessante su Instagram che vorresti rivedere più tardi o vuoi vedere le storie restando anonimo, il nostro Visualizzatore è perfetto per te. Anonstories offre una soluzione eccellente per mantenere la tua identità nascosta. Instagram ha lanciato per la prima volta la funzionalità Storie nell'agosto 2023, che è stata rapidamente adottata da altre piattaforme per il suo formato coinvolgente e tempestivo. Le storie permettono agli utenti di condividere aggiornamenti rapidi, che siano foto, video o selfie, arricchiti con testo, emoji o filtri, e sono visibili per solo 24 ore. Questo limite di tempo crea un forte coinvolgimento rispetto ai post normali. Oggi, le storie sono uno dei modi più popolari per connettersi e comunicare sui social media. Tuttavia, quando guardi una storia, il creatore può vedere il tuo nome nella loro lista di visualizzatori, il che potrebbe essere un problema per la privacy. E se desiderassi navigare tra le storie senza essere notato? Ecco dove Anonstories diventa utile. Ti consente di guardare contenuti pubblici su Instagram senza rivelare la tua identità. Basta inserire il nome utente del profilo che ti interessa e lo strumento mostrerà le sue ultime storie. Funzionalità del Visualizzatore Anonstories: - Navigazione Anonima: Guarda le storie senza apparire nella lista di visualizzazione. - Nessun Account Necessario: Visualizza contenuti pubblici senza registrarti su Instagram. - Download dei Contenuti: Salva qualsiasi contenuto delle storie direttamente sul tuo dispositivo per un uso offline. - Guarda i Punti Salienti: Accedi ai punti salienti di Instagram, anche oltre la finestra di 24 ore. - Monitoraggio dei Repost: Tieni traccia dei repost o dei livelli di interazione nelle storie per i profili personali. Limitazioni: - Questo strumento funziona solo con account pubblici; gli account privati restano inaccessibili. Vantaggi: - Privacy: Guarda qualsiasi contenuto su Instagram senza essere notato. - Semplice e Facile: Nessuna installazione di app o registrazione richiesta. - Strumenti Esclusivi: Scarica e gestisci contenuti in modi che Instagram non offre.
