Books

In 2014, I Heart Edmonton began to pay more attention to the literary talents of Edmonton, by reading and reviewing not only titles by Edmonton authors, but also books that are set in the Capital Region. Local Renaissance woman Paula E. Kirman and I Heart Edmonton have taken it upon ourselves to share our opinions on what Edmonton literary talent has to offer. Feel free to contact us if you have any titles you have to recommend.
