This was good - quite funny. It made me nostalgic for the Vancouver of 2009, especially the photo of the Foundation (RIP). I'm curious to revisit the ten-year anniversary edition when it comes out. ( )

A witty and insightful portrait into Vancouver. Demers uses his own experiences to shed light on the city that all Vancouverites share. ( )

I picked this up because it thought it would help me get to know Vancouver better, and while it was interesting, it made me feel like a new kid at a large high school - so far out of the in-jokes there is no point trying. References to people, political events, and even sports teams went right over my head. I think this would have more to offer long time Vancouver residents. ( )

A well written account of all the things that make up what Vancouver was/is/will be. My only complaint is that my edition was screwed up and half way through the book skipped from one chapter to repeating two others before moving on. Thus I feel I missed out on a fair bit. Otherwise a good read. ( )
