Challenge Completed – Australian Women Writers Challenge 2021
2021 marks the end of the Australian Women Writer’s challenge as a general challenge focusing on women authors throughout Australian history.

February 2021 Round-up
February’s reading leaped considerably to thirty books read that month for blogging and blog tours, and a couple that I read for myself. I’m yet to start back working as a quiz writer, but I also review for Scholastic, so several of these books were for that. Most were by Australian authors, and about 27… Continue reading February 2021 Round-up
