Day 21: Wet-and-wild - Song of the Current by by Sarah Tolcser. I’m yet to read this swashbuckling romp, but I’ve only heard good things and it is high on my TBR. #ausyachallenge19 is hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramchallenge #igreads #books #ausyabloggers #booklover #tbr
Day 20: Adaptation - Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief - A fantastic original book by the awesome Rick Riordan; it has been adapted into an adorable graphic novel & shitty movie. #AusYaChallenge19 is hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramchallenge #igreads #percyjackson #adaptation #booklove #rickriordan #goodbook
Day 19: #throwbackthursday - Losing It by Lizzie Wilcock, set in my home town of #Newcastle and published back on the 1st of March 2006 by Scholastic Australia. #AusYaChallenge19 is hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #igreads #bookstagram #bookstgrammer #bookstagramchallenge #booklove #booklover #ausyabloggers
Day 18: Friendship - The Simple Gift by Steven Herrick. The Simple Gift is a story of friendship and second chances, of healing and new love. Caitlin, Billy & Old Bill; three people from different walks of life brought together by circumstance with the result being that they all end up making each other’s life better. #ausyachallenge19 hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #loveozya #versenovel #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramchallenge #igreads #goodbook #mustread #booklove #booklover
Day 17: OTP - My first OTP Anne & Gilbert. The first time I met Anne & Gilbert it was through my mother's voice. I can vividly remember her (my mum) sitting next to my bed and us both bawling our eyes out trying to get through the part in the first book where Mathew dies. Gets me every time, regardless if it;s a re-read or watching an adaptation. But Gilbert! Gilbert and Anne were for a very long time how I thought love was meant to be and even now I think they are adorable and an OTP. #ausyachallenge19 hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstagrammer #bookstagramchallenge #bookstagram #classicreads #booklove #booklover #anneofgreengables #igreads #igbooks #books
Day 16: Hero - Wonder Woman: Warbringer (DC Icons #1) by Leigh Bardugo. No explanation needed. #ausyachallenge19 hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstagram #bookstagramchallenge #bookstgrammer #igreads #dcicons #booklover #wonderwoman
Day 15: Villain - Aven Dalmarta from The Medoran Chronicles by Lynette Noni is my villianus pick (pictured is book number 5 in the series, Vardaesia). #ausyachallenge19 is hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstagramchallenge #loveozya #bookstagram #bookstgrammer #igreads #goodbook #booklove #booklover #finalinaseries
Day 14: #loveozya - Brontide by Sue McPherson. Wow did I have a tough time narrowing down what book I wanted to use for this prompt, there are so many fantastic examples of #loveozya out there. In the end I picked Brontide because I think it is a lesser known but absolutely brilliant book! #ausyachallenge19 Hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstgrammer #bookstagram #bookstagramchallenge #igreads #goodbooks #booklove #booklover #mustreadbooks
Day 13: Person of Colour - The Poet X by Elizabeth Acevedo is our #ausyabloggers December buddy read and I am hanging out to read it. I adore verse novels and I’ve only heard good things about this one. #ausyachallenge19 hosted by @eternaldelicacy and @ausyabloggers #bookstagramchallenge #booklover #igreads #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #versenovel
