#CommonwealthAuthors
blurb
LibrarianRyan
Swindle | Gordon Korman
post image

So first I had to look up what nations were in the commonwealth before I knew which authors were #commonwealthauthors but I learn something new everyday. One of my favs is Gordon Korman. He can write action and adventure, but I like it best when he writes comedy with heart. #marchintoreading

It started with just being busy...then I was all like, "Well, which countries ARE in the Commonwealth?" & then I realized a spreadsheet & a Google map I started a few years back to keep track of books I read that take place in other countries & started updating those. & then I made a list of books I've read that take place in Commonwealth countries, & THEN I subtracted the non-#Commonwealthauthors. I need to read more #ownvoices & drink more wine.

mcipher That's excellent math. 👍 7y

Hestapleton That last sentence is my new life goal: read more #ownvoices and drink more wine. 7y

These might be the only 2 #commonwealthauthors I have. I've read Room and hope to get to Purple Hibiscus soon. #MarchIntoReading

I think Donoghue might be the only one of the #CommonwealthAuthors I've read. I should probably remedy that soon. #MarchIntoReading

Elephants Can Remember | Agatha Christie
post image

Still laid up in bed on this rainy, stormy autumn day. Taking advantage of the perfect reading weather and getting stuck into a few British cozy mysteries. Nothing better to read when it's so wet and gloomy outside! Dame Agatha is another #commonwealthauthors that I forgot to put in last nights photo. #christiescrimeclub

BibliophileMomma 💗 Agatha Christie! 7y
Dragon Yay for a Christie! 👍 7y
Maike I like that hashtag 😄😊 7y

#marchintoreading Day13: #commonwealthauthors
A bit late to post. Oopsy. I pulled these off the shelf. Haven't read these books yet. All except Atwood are also authors I haven't read yet.
@RealLifeReading

RealLifeReading Haven't heard of this and it's a great title! 7y
diovival @RealLifeReading I admit it was pretty much an insta-buy based off title and cover alone. $2 at the library. 7y

#marchintoreading Just a small selection of #commonwealthauthors . The top book is a picture book I loved as a kid. I bought it for my new niece, and it was the first ever book her mum read to her!
