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
