Today my #77Saturday comes from Wolf Girl: Into the Wild by Anh Do. I’m planning on starting Wolf Girl tonight with Riley. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 77: Where had they all gone? I knew other people had run into the forest, so why hadn’t I seen anyone? And why was no one back at the cars? The stillness was spooky. I was grateful to have the dogs, or I would have felt really alone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #77saturday is a blog feature / meme the #AusYABloggers do every Saturday. The Rules: 1) Pick up a Book (your current read, or the closest book to you etc.) 2) Turn to page 77 (or 77% if you are using an e-reader) 3) Find a Snippet, Sentence or Paragraph you like. 4) Share it on your Blog, Twitter or Instagram and link back to the @AusYABloggers and use the hashtag #77Saturday ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #igreads #ausyabloggers #bookblogger #booknerd #booklover #booklove #bookbloggers #aussiebookbloggers
I’m sure at some point you’ve all read or heard me talking about @lilyluchesi and my love of her Paranormal Detective Series (a paranormal/romance/crime/horror combo that works extremely well). What you might have missed is that she also writes more erotic tales under the name of @samanthacalcott Don’t let the girl and the guy on the cover fool you, the woman behind Lily and Samantha is an out and proud member of the LGBTQ+ community and she has also penned lady on lady and male on male action. Her work as both pen names is worth checking out! Whether you are after hot and heavy or darker paranormal delving, she’s got you covered for your reading pleasure. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #CoverReveal for Her Secret Master by @samanthacalcott She will never bow. #PREORDER for #99cents http://smarturl.it/HSMSC #CanYouKeepASecret ?

(a photo I prepared earlier) Today my #77Saturday comes from Take Three Girls by Cath Crowley, Fiona Wood and Simmone Howell. Sadly I haven’t had a change to read this 2017 #LoveOzYA release. But I’ve only heard good things about it and am hoping I can get it read this year. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 77: Iris doesn’t talk to me all that much after Clem goes. I can't work out if she's hurt by Clem’s comment or mad at me. It feels like both. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #77saturday is a blog feature / meme the #AusYABloggers do every Saturday.

Had a fantastic time in Sydney for my lovely lil cuz’s @taylorjeanprice #HensParty - good food, great drinks and even greater company!!! Mum, Mel and I headed down on the train Saturday morning. We got to Sydney, checked into our hotel, then went and had lunch and espresso martinis to kick off. We got saturated heading to the first Hen’s event - Brush & Sip - but we had a fantastic time regardless. After that we all headed to Drag & Dine at The Imperial - without a doubt the best pub/club I’ve ever been to - the vibe, the aesthetic, the food, the entertainment. AWESOME! I lost count of how many pornstar martinis I had. But damn I wish it was my local! Then we finished the night at Harpoon Harry’s bar near our hotel. This morning, we got wet again, and tried to catch the train home. At Gosford the train was terminated due to unsafe conditions. So while waiting for Gordy to come rescue us, we had lunch and expresso martinis to round it out. #goodnight #partytime #drinks #awesomenightout #draganddine #dragndine #brushandsipnewtown #brushandsip #hensnight #funtimes
Today my 77 comes from The Foretelling of Georgie Spider (The Tribe #3) by Ambelin Kwaymullina. I’m still to finish reading this #LoveOzYA thrillogy. I loved the first two books, but still haven’t been able to bring myself to let it end. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 77: I put my arms around his neck and he lifted me up. Then he Ran and everything turned into a blur. It looked this way for me but not for Daniel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #igreads #ausyabloggers #bookblogger #booknerd #booklover #booklove #bookbloggers #aussiebookbloggers #aussiebookstagrammer #igreads #77saturday
In the pic are my January reads. I managed to cram a fair few in there. I’m quite chuffed with myself lol. I’m using Ninja Kid #1 (from nerd to ninja) by Anh Do for both my #TBRtrim20 New read and the #AusYABloggers New Beginnings Prompt. Why yes I am doubling up, bite me, I’m a busy mum with two little boys who works full time, I gotta catch a break somewhere. And it was a Christmas purchase so it totally counts. And I’m not eligible for either prizes as I’m part of running both challenges, so it doesn't really matter what I do lol. To find my #TBRtrim20 Old read I was browsing the early end of my Goodreads shelves, just focusing on books I owned, seeing if any of them grabbed my attention and I couldn’t for the life of me remember how I came to have a copy of Chosen by the Alpha (The Shadow Pack Rules #1) by Michele Bardsley. I figured that was a good enough reason to read it. #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #aussiebookstagrammer #booklover #aussiebookbloggers #bookblogger #readingroundup #bookishbabble #igreads #readingchallenge #readingchallenge2020
I got Riley to pick a book for my #77Saturday yesterday, then I realised I already had a 77 going live on the #AusYaBloggers group blog featuring Clancy of the undertow - an all time fave of mine. I then got on with my day and forgot all about posting on here. Anyways the book Riley picked off the shelf was 488 Rules for Life by Kitty Flanagan. I haven’t read Kitty’s book yet. I’m saving it for my next blue bout, when I'll attempt to use it as a pick me up. #bookstagram #pickmeup #bookstagrammer #booklover #booknerd #igreads #funnybooks #aussiebookblogger #aussiebookstagrammer
Today my 77 comes from Wreck by #LoveOzYA thriller queen Fleur Ferris. The 77: “Seeing her tears chokes me up. My voice has disappeared so I nod. Portia turns and heads to the rocks and starts climbing.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #77saturday is a blog feature / meme the #AusYABloggers do every Saturday. The Rules: 1) Pick up a Book (your current read, or the closest book to you, or your next read, etc.) 2) Turn to page 77 (or 77% if you are using an e-reader) 3) Find a Snippet, Sentence or Paragraph you like. 4) Share it on your blog or Twitter or Instagram and link back to the @AusYABloggers and use the hashtag #77Saturday ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #bookstagrammer #bookstagram #igreads #ausyabloggers #bookblogger #booknerd #booklover #booklove #bookbloggers #aussiebookbloggers
Today my 77 comes from #LoveOzYA crime romance No Limits by Ellie Marney, an action-packed adventure ride of a book. The 77: “For a second I think he knows about Dad’s cancer and i’m struck dumb. Then it sinks in that he’s talking about the outstanding bills. Possibly the more pressing concern. If I don't do something about the bookie, there’ll be unwelcome knocks on the door. And if the tab here isn’t tidied up, dad will be a bear to live with for the next five months without his regular doses of beer and vodka.” Oh man how I hated Harris dad! I read No limits back in 2017 and feel like I need to do a reread soon 📚❤️ Do yourself a favour, go and buy something/anything written by @elliemarney and fall in love with her storytelling awesomeness. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ #77saturday is a blog feature / meme the #AusYABloggers do every Saturday.
