March 2020 Round Up
March was a strange month – it started out as normal as could be, though we knew about the coronavirus, and then a few weeks into March, everything changed, and by the end of it, they had changed again with strict social distancing rules.

For my eleventh square, I chose a book with a door on the cover.

In my tenth post for Books and Bites Book Bingo, I chose to mark off the square for a book with bad reviews.

Books and Bites Bingo Short story collection – Radio National Fictions (various short stories on ABC Listen app
I don’t read that many short story collections – nor do I listen to audiobooks. The former is simply because they don’t often cross my path, and the latter because I know I’d never be able to focus on that much audio. I’m better with short bursts like podcasts, so when I discovered Radio National… Continue reading Books and Bites Bingo Short story collection – Radio National Fictions (various short stories on ABC Listen app

Books and Bites Bingo Eco Themes: The Vanishing Deep by Astrid Scholte
Eco themes was one I thought I would struggle with – I haven’t read a lot of climate fiction, and also, haven’t read many books about sustainability – many are simply not in a genre I enjoy, such as cookbooks or lifestyle books, and as a result, they do not cross my path very often.… Continue reading Books and Bites Bingo Eco Themes: The Vanishing Deep by Astrid Scholte
