Name Dropping
Up-to-the-millisecond blogs, A-to-Z listers on Twitter and thinly veiled blind items: these are a few of our favourite things.
We're upping the Canadian content on our gossip intake with new novel Boldface Name by National Post columnist Shinan Govani (obviously he took the cliche "write what you know" to heart). Bathed in social satire, celebrity culture and society scandal, Govani's novel is Maple Leaf-centric with a Toronto setting and heavy rotation of Canadian celeb mentions.
A cover-to-cover read of this dictionary of Canuck dish and you'll never confuse Ryan Reynolds with Ryan Gosling again.
Boldface Names, $14.59 at Amazon.ca.
