Gnooks is great! You type in three of your favorite authors and it suggests more. You must try it, you literary types, you.

in various locations in Cape Breton (including my home town of Glace Bay). Cape Breton is great to visit any summer, but if you love great food, this may be the extra reason to get you to book your trip today. In the meantime, follow the link above to see what I am talking about.
