This morning, CBC Canada Reads host Jian Ghomeshi announced results of the second round of public voting, which saw a list of 40 titles reduced to a mere 10. At the risk of sounding biased, we have to give a shout-out to our very own staff writer Zoe Whittall, whose debut novel, Bottle Rocket Hearts, made the cut. Hurray Zoe! Check out the list below, or click here for the Canada Reads website.
