Top 10 Unger Review Articles of 2023

Happy 2024, everyone! 2023 was a year of change around here and I know how much Mennonites love change.

Most notable for this website, of course, was the rebranding of the main page from The Daily Bonnet to The Unger Review, and I’m grateful that everyone seems to have made it through this particularly traumatic episode unscathed. Let us never forget about the time the GC changed to the MC or when the Kleine Gemeinde became the EMC. See, we can do this! For those who miss The Daily Bonnet brand, however, just remember that it’s alive and well. There’s a whole section of the site with Daily Bonnet branding and I still use The Daily Bonnet to label our “particularly Menno” articles.

The addition of the (admittedly infrequent) headline contest was also a lot of fun this year. As with my borscht recipe, I’m still working out the kinks with that, but expect to see the headline contest continue in 2024.

I’m also glad to see that many of you have picked up and enjoyed my novel Once Removed and collection The Best of the Bonnet this year. It was fun to meet many of you at events in the past year or so, including a reading I did while trying to stay upright on a moving train from Toronto to Saskatoon.
