This is a different book by Auntie Fay, not in the database.

Always Was Always Will Be is an excellent book of the history of First Nations protest movements in Australia. Suitable for middle grade and up, but I learned things also. Recommended.

Late term op shop after work. My collection of these yellow books is growing next to my orange penguins on my bookshelf. I will use the Easter paper to wrap my special kidlets Easter presents this year and because the school holidays are upon us I may have time for the craft project to put next to my other dolls.

A rambling story that could maybe have been a short story, but Todd writes beautifully. The author gives us a story of damaged people who are trying to find their way while the St. John Comet tracks across the skies over Jericho, a town in Australia. We meet Sylvia, whose “1st death” was in a horrific auto accident. We meet Theo, who discovered the comet and is weirdly interested in Sylvia and Joseph who seeks dangerous meaning in the comet.

So sad. One of my most favourite Aussie Authors. Tagged book, one of my favourites in her series about a baker.

CarolynM I hadn‘t heard. That is sad😢 1w
Jeg @CarolynM on her FB page her partner posted a longer announcement but it wouldn‘t have fitted on this page. Worth a read. 1w

This novel about generational drama I found uneven. The story in London was more compelling to me than the "Then" part set in Australia. Just did not work for me. 2.5 ?

ChaoticMissAdventures I felt the same. I was much more interested in the boyfriend trying to mess with the cat 😂 1w
