I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

pickAfter reading her biography I really wanted to read some of her books. This is the third I have read and the first she had published in 1990. It‘s taken me a long time to get through, it was not a page turner. The way she writes is exquisite. I‘m sure if she had lived this young woman would have written many great Aussie stories. I felt a bit sad leaving Clementine , the main character and narrator, at the end of the book.
bailedI‘m 25% in and reading this book is like watching paint dry, so I‘m out! I hope it works better for you, @CarolynM ! #ReadYourEbooks (18) #unshelved

pickThis was great! The characters were so full, and cleverly thought out so not to be stereotypes. The detail snout indigenous people was essential to the story and incredibly interesting to me.
Looking forward to reading another before it hits Netflix...
SONG OF SPHERES - Walker Larson
“As an indie author, it's hard to stand out from the crowd. Your reading of the book is a real help. Song of Spheres will appeal to those who like a philosophical/theoretical edge and a character-focused style to their adventure stories. It grapples with questions about our place in the universe and how scientific theories can impact human life. Slow build in first half, action-packed in the second.”
Yesterday my friend, fellow book club member and neighbour, Kate was giving away all of these books and more kerbside. I got some for my partner, some for myself and some for the little people in my life. What a score. My nephew is into the Ripley‘s and my partner loves Hemingway.
Here's my fall bucket list for #Scarathlon.
