The Last Resort by Linwood Barclay

The Last ResortThe Last Resort by Linwood Barclay
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Linwood Barclay unselfishly shares the stories of his childhood at Green Acres Resort, near Bobcaygeon Ontario. A wonderful book and one of my all time favourite memoirs.

His family bought the resort when he was quite young and moved from Toronto to the country where he went to school by bus and had wonderful summers. Not without some sadness, but a very motivating book.

Highly recommended. This book turned me into a Linwood Barclay fan, and started me devouring everything he has written.
