January Wrap Up 2016


Every month I usually find myself wondering where the time has gone, but this month has been surprisingly different.  I look back on what I did in January, and it feels like it was ages ago.  I have done a lot more in this first month of 2016 than I expected.  I've been to Queensland and Sydney (and back home), and I've been to the zoo and seen my extended family.  I caught up with friends and watched some new movies.  I even managed to read a few books :P  Here they are!

Birthday and Christmas Book Haul


So it's been a few months since my last book haul, back in October.  In that post, I shared 4 books that I'd received.  Today, I have 14.  Don't worry - I have a very good reason.  My birthday plus Christmas are both in December, so a lot of these are from then.  There are also a significant number that are not from then, but I don't think I have gone too overboard.

Top Ten Favourite Australian YA Books


Today's Top Ten Tuesday (hosted by The Broke and the Bookish) topic is a freebie!  And since today is Australia Day, I thought, why not stick with the theme?  So today I am telling you my top 10 favourite YA books written by Australian authors.  (Also, if I've made a mistake and any of these aren't by an Australian author, please let me live on in blissful ignorance).

Mini Reviews feat. These Shallow Graves and Before I Fall


I was recently considering stopping doing these mini reviews and separating them all, but I've since realised that I like doing them this way better.  I don't feel the pressure to write 1000 words about one book, because there's two reviews in the same post.  So I'm keeping this style of reviewing.  Of course I will still do separate reviews for books I received to review because I feel like that's only fair somehow.  Anyway, onto today's reviews!

Liebster Q&A


Hi everyone, I hope you're having a great day so far!  I was lucky enough to be nominated for the Liebster Award by Zhana over at Confessions of an Addict (thanks very much, Zhana!) so today I thought I would answer her questions.  Because I've already done this a couple of times (here's the first time), I've decided just to answer the questions and treat this as a tag.  Hopefully this doesn't make me a horrible person!
