pickI loved this book. It had everything going for it...drama, parenting, romance, wisdom, and some thriller action. I also loved the sketches at the beginning of each chapter. Dalton has wonderfully drawn from his own history, both personal and professional. He describes domestic abuse as a Tyrannosaurus Waltz, a phrase that really captures the reality of the situation many women find themself in. Thanks to Edelweiss+ for the digital ARC. 5/5!
pickA curious story of a family in early 80s Melbourne who appear to have a perfect life until dexter meets an old flame at the airport. When Elizabeth introduces her wild sister Vicki and her on-off boyfriend Philip to the dynamics of Athena + Dexter's life, it causes ripples from which they may not recover. Perfect writing and dialogue, which held my interest but not characters to who I warmed. I will try the author again as I know she is well loved
Made it to the Post Office without getting attacked by a bird! #aussiesecretsanta
It‘s definitely starting to feel like Christmas now that I‘ve wrapped my first gift up! ☺️
My #AussieSecretSanta parcel is in the mail.
My #AuldLangSpine list is short but sweet. I have read two: The Marriage Portrait and The Four Winds. I can get the tagged book on Libby so will start there.
Thanks for an interesting list with several new to me titles @LapReader
Appreciate your work on my most favorite New Year‘s swap. @monalyisha
pickI really enjoyed learning about some of the common insects that we find here. And learning some facts that I never know!
I was looking to see if a new Jane Harper might be in the works and found she hasn't updated social media since May 10. Google didn't give me any info newer than this either. Have any of you heard anything about her that I've missed?
Loving the colour of this baby blanket. It‘s brighter than the photo shows.
A beautiful day for reading outside while waiting to be picked up. It‘s been wet, hot, humid, stormy here and this week coming looks like a lot of the same coming. I swear it wasn‘t this tropical in Adelaide when I was a child! This is Queensland weather!
