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

Australian Women Read in 2024

Ashleigh

For the past several years, I have been eager to promote Australian women writers. Not to the detriment of men or international authors, but because Australian women writers are brilliant and often overlooked, so don’t always get the recognition they deserve. There are some who are popular, but for those who aren’t, I feel that… Continue reading Australian Women Read in 2024

Total Women Authors Read in 2024

Ashleigh

During 2024 I read 210 books by women, which was in line with my goal to read more books by women in general, and I did my best to read as diversely as possible, but I was also reading the books I already had or that were sent to me for review or literary judging,… Continue reading Total Women Authors Read in 2024

Indigenous Authors 2024

Ashleigh

During 2024, I also tried to read more Indigenous authors, and the ones that came my way had a lot to do with books I was aware of and books I was able to get or had on my shelf. There are many more Indigenous authors, of course, and some may not write in a… Continue reading Indigenous Authors 2024

KT Book Bingo – #KTBookBingo Completed

Ashleigh

One of the reading challenges I undertook this year was a book bingo from a friend – KT Book Bingo. I had all but completed it until I found a book set in South America. I had tried to find one that I really wanted to read, but wasn’t able to in time and with… Continue reading KT Book Bingo – #KTBookBingo Completed
