September 2022 Reading Round-up

Ashleigh

In September, I read 22 books, with sixteen by Australian authors and six by non-Australian authors, so I have been reading more Australian authors this year, which has been my focus and goal to promote Australian voices – as many as I can and as diversely as I can. I’ve again read across a range of genres and styles, and the Christmas books are starting to come out, so from October, there will be a few Christmas books popping up on the blog as they come to me for review. I am still, as at the time of writing this, keeping on top of my reviews. Some books have arrived after or very close to publication date, but I am still getting things up before everything piles up, which is good. And now, onto more reading in October!

An avid reader and writer, reviewer and author. I love to read just about anything. I enjoy writing about books, reading and writing as well and I dabble in many areas of writing from travel to crime fiction and fantasy. My blog is a way to get how I feel about reading, books and writing out there. I currently receive books to review from various publishers in most genres, but typically don't review romance or horror, or erotica books as I these are genres I have difficulty in reviewing and in general they are not what I enjoy reading.
