Aussie Author Challenge – my progress in 2011

Can you believe it – it is June already!

High time to reflect upon my own progress in the 2011 Aussie Author Challenge.

As challenge host, I of course signed up to the TRUE BLUE challenge level rather than TOURIST.

TOURIST – Read and review 3 books by 3 different Aussie Authors
TRUE BLUE – Read and review 12 books by Australian authors (at least 9 different authors)

Books I’ve read in 2011 so far written by Australian authors:

QUEEN OF THE FLOWERS – Kerry Greenwood (my review)

DREAMS OF SPEAKING – Gail Jones (my review)

RHUBARB – Craig Silvey (my review)

THE BROKEN SHORE – Peter Temple (my review)

FALL GIRL – Toni Jordan (my review)

THE BIG ASK – Shane Maloney (my review)

And at the moment I’m listening to Kate Morton’s wonderful The Forgotten Garden.

So that’s 7 books by 7 different authors, so far…

Other books by Aussie Authors I’ll be reading in the coming months include:

OSCAR AND LUCINDA – Peter Carey 

AVENUE OF ETERNAL PEACE – Nicholas Jose

THREE DOLLARS – Elliot Perlman

AFTER  THE FIRE, A STILL SMALL VOICE – Evie Wyld

THE FIVE GREATEST WARRIORS –  Matthew Reilly

MURDER ON A MIDSUMMER NIGHT – Kerry Greenwood
