Time to dial it back and stop showing off, only one square being checked off today (although I did have another square lined up so another double post was certainly achievable - just in case you mistook this modesty for slacking off). Book set in the Australian outback: Sunshine by Kim Kelly At its heart, … Continue reading #BookBingo – Round 5

Challenge Check In – February
Since I’m doing a few challenges this year, I thought I’d do a monthly check in post by way of keeping myself on track. February has been a quieter month than January but I've still made some good progress into each of my challenges. February's efforts look like this: #aww2019: 6 books #AussieAuthor19: 6 books … Continue reading Challenge Check In – February
#BookBingo – Round 4
These double rounds are turning into a habit, one I'd better dial back on or else I'll finish this bingo challenge sooner than planned and have to start it all over again. The latest squares I have checked off are: Book set in an exotic location: The Moon Sister by Lucinda Riley Set primarily in … Continue reading #BookBingo – Round 4
#BookBingo – Round 3
Another double round! I am so pleased with how this challenge is progressing. This last fortnight, I've checked off: 500 pages or more: The Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon Which I read as a way of finding out what was going to happen in the rest of season four of Outlander. Waiting each week … Continue reading #BookBingo – Round 3
Challenge Check In – January
Since I'm doing a few challenges this year, I thought I'd do a monthly check in post by way of keeping myself on track. January has been a super month for reading and I was making a huge effort to chip into each of my challenges. January's efforts look like this: #aww2019: 10 books #AussieAuthor19: … Continue reading Challenge Check In – January
#BookBingo – Round 1
Round 1 and I thought I'd give myself a good headstart by reading and checking off two books for this challenge. With 30 squares, we have to double up a few times, so here's my first double up: Written by an Australian woman: The Sweet Hills Of Florence by Jan Wallace Dickinson Overall, The Sweet … Continue reading #BookBingo – Round 1
One more challenge…The Classics Eight
It might look like I'm signing up for challenges left, right, and centre, but in reality, so far I've only picked up one extra, The Aussie Author Challenge. I always do the Australian Women Writers Challenge and Bingo will be entering its second year. I figured I had ample room for one more. This one … Continue reading One more challenge…The Classics Eight
The Aussie Author Challenge 2019
I’ve decided to branch out a bit by participating in more reading challenges next year. I've always just stuck to the Australian Women Writers Challenge and my bingo one, but I'd like to shift myself out of my comfort zone a little and throwing in a few extra reading challenges seems like a good way … Continue reading The Aussie Author Challenge 2019
Bingo! The Football Whisperer by Mel A Rowe
Book Bingo is getting even more challenging with only a few squares left. I am borderline cheating this round as I attempt to check off: A book with non-human characters Now, it doesn't have the word 'exclusively' in there, so I'm going to go with the idea that there can also be human … Continue reading Bingo! The Football Whisperer by Mel A Rowe
Bingo! The Beguiled by Thomas Cullinan
Bingo Saturday is now getting down to the pointy end of the categories. This week, after much procrastination over which square to tick off, I finally settled on the following: A forgotten classic What exactly constitutes a forgotten classic though? The more I thought about it, the more grey this category became. In essence, I thought a … Continue reading Bingo! The Beguiled by Thomas Cullinan
