July 1, 2017 marks 150 years since Confederation in Canada. CBC Books is creating the Great Canadian Reading List — a list of 150 books curated by you. What Canadian book is most meaningful to you? Let us know by tweeting @cbcbooks, commenting on our Facebook page or emailing us at cbcbooks@cbc.ca. We'll reveal the list sometime in July.

Our first recommendation comes from Shelagh Rogers. She chose Indian Horse by Richard Wagamese.
