It‘s only a little thing (I listened to the audio) but such a delight! I‘m not entirely sure what I was expecting - but what I got was Alice Pung (a bit of a legend on the #LoveOzYA scene herself) musing on how John Marsden has affected her as a reader, a writer and as a friend who reached out during a hard time in her life.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag This is a throwback to the time I went to a screening of Tomorrow When The War Began with a Q&A after. The signing line was huge - and we were near the end, but he was lovely! Happy to chat and take photos and sign what seemed to be some people‘s entire John Marsden collections (he has a substantial backlist) I took two books to be signed - one for me, and one for a coworker who wanted to go but had to work. 7mo

Loved this as much as the first one(even more maybe). Great plotting. Great suspense. Great heroes. #readingjustforme #holidayreading #loveozya

MrsMalaprop My son read & liked the first. I‘ll have to get this one for him 👍🙏. 9mo

Three latest reads for #julyrso2023. Two #loveOzYA 🇦🇺books, and Elizabeth Wein!! All good, two historical, one contemporary.

Jarvis 24 | David Metzenthen
post image

This is David Metzenthen‘s new book coming in July. It‘s not listed here yet. But I did love Jarvis 24. Just started this one for #julyrso2023 #digitalarc #loveozya This author has written many many books over the past 30 years I reckon (maybe 40). They offer thoughtful, kind male protagonists who are open to learning, loving and life. High hopes for this fellow.

A little bit of movement on the display today…

Sneaking more #loveozya contemporary novels on… and this was before I read about the passing of Gabrielle Williams (author of The Guy, The Girl, The Artist & his Ex)

Lovely #loveOzYA romance set in Melbourne right at the beginning of 2020 #covid #lockdown this brought back memories but I wasn‘t saddened. It was more nostalgic, being reminded of things I had forgotten. Lovely MCs. Art is important, being creative stirs the soul, and money isn‘t everything. #preview #debutnovel #feb2023

Lots of missed reads through the year - both Australian and international - both middle fiction and young adult, some series, some arcs, some borrows, and some from my library. Starting with the tagged book 📕 because everything Fiona Wood writes is amazing. #tbrpile #catchingup #loveozya #currentlyreading also spring is coming…

New Kid on the Book Nice book stack! 2y

Library #bookhaul! Run is the followup to Lewis' March books, and Sugar is an Australian YA I've been looking forward to with a diabetic MC and a mysterious dead body. #loveozya
