Australian authors read in 2024

Ashleigh

I read 206 Australian authors in 2024, many more than international authors, because I feel like Australian authors are often overlooked in favour of US or UK authors, unless they have a big name that is almost guaranteed to sell books. My Australian reading has been as diverse as possible, within genre and author identity.… Continue reading Australian authors read in 2024

Australian Women Read in 2024

There are some who are popular, but for those who aren’t, I feel that… Continue reading Australian Women Read in 2024

LGBTQIA Authors 2024

Ashleigh

In 2024, I also aimed to read more LGBTQIA authors, but one thing I struggled with here was the amount of romance books on offer. As someone who doesn’t read romance as a genre in general (though I don’t mind it as part of the story, it’s just that I tend to get bored when… Continue reading LGBTQIA Authors 2024

Aussie YA Challenge Completed

Ashleigh

One of the challenges I took part in this year was the #AussieYAChallenge, hosted by Amy at Lost in a Good Book. I had planned to read to the highest level, which was Nix – read twelve books, because at the time, I wasn’t sure how much Australian YA would come my way. I ended… Continue reading Aussie YA Challenge Completed
