Name a book that you hesitated on because the cover was awful but turned out to be an incredible read?
This is mine.
Took me forever to track down a copy as it is out of print - but it was either find my own or steal the libraries copy (and that would be wrong)
So happy to have found this one. I read it several years ago and loved it. Found some other fun ones too.
Sequel, please! For #RiotGrams... or a birkett may be thrown!
This fairly hideous cover hides a pretty perfect book, I‘m hoping it gets another go with a more appealing cover! #loveozya
When Debbie told Dad that she was marrying Brian, her new boyfriend of one month, Dad went ballistic.
'Not Brian!' He leapt from his chair. 'Anybody but Brian. I'd prefer that bloke who stole and hocked my tennis trophies... what was his name?'
'His name was Bruce, Dad,' said Debbie, with a sniff. 'And he didn't steal your trophies. You gave them away to St Vinnies.'

pickCould this *be* any more Aussie!? Even though I've lived Down Under all my life - I'd never come across the term 'birkett' (to chuck a birkett - you must stop caring about what other people think and just start telling it like it is) One of my best finds for this year - with characters that I was genuinely sad to close the book on 💜💜💜 Also published as 'The Sweet Glorious Year I Truly, Completely Lost It. #LoveOzYa 🇦🇺
That cover though 😂
