Final Reading Log 2024

Ashleigh

In 2024 I read 244 books from authors covering a wide range of identities and nationalities, adult fiction, children’s and young adult books, and across a wide range of genres. There were some I loved some I didn’t, and some that I felt a bit middling about – they may not have been my thing,… Continue reading Final Reading Log 2024

Total Men Read in 2024

Ashleigh

During 2024, I read 41 books by men from across the world. As with my other reading, I have done my best to be as diverse as possible with what I read for review and other reading, and I have included anthologies edited by women here because they include essays or stories by men, and… Continue reading Total Men Read in 2024

Books by Non-Australian Men 2024

Ashleigh

In 2024, I read nine books by men who weren’t from Australia. Two of these books were anthologies that included works by men, which is why I have included them here. Some books have crossover in a few ways, so I have tried to reflect that as much as I can. As my focus was… Continue reading Books by Non-Australian Men 2024

Non-Australian Women Read in 2024

Ashleigh

I read 30 books by non-Australian women in 2024 – these authors came from all over the world, and some were translated, whilst others I had to do some research to determine where they’d fit into, because not every author’s biography tells you where they live. I tried to be as diverse as possible, but… Continue reading Non-Australian Women Read in 2024

Cowritten Books and Anthologies Read

Ashleigh

In 2024 I read several books that were written by two or more people, and some anthologies. I separated the counts out in 2023, but for 2024, I have combined them, because I felt that there weren’t enough to split into two separate posts this time. It’s also easier, because some anthologies can count as… Continue reading Cowritten Books and Anthologies Read

Books by Australian Men 2024

Ashleigh

Another category I split my reading into was gender, to see how it broke down into men and women, as my focus has often been on promoting Australian women writers over the past few years, to try and bolster the voices of those who are not as popular or given as much attention as popular… Continue reading Books by Australian Men 2024
