I wasn’t going to share these, as i’m not sure if they will make sense if you don’t know the people the animals represent. But I love them all, so have decided I will share them :-). I hope you enjoy, Animal Business, a…

Review: Disruption & Corruption by Jessica Shirvington

Oh wow, where do I start. I finished the last page of Disruption, made myself a fresh cuppa tea then opened up Corruption and continued Maggie’s journey. It was 833 pages of utterly enthralling action. Let me calm down and try to break this…

Life is made up of three parts: in the first third, you’re embarrassed by your family; in the second, you make a family of your own; and in the end, you just embarrass the family you’ve made. That’s how Billy’s grandmother explains it, anyway….

Aussie Author Quote Edition: I haven’t read Stormdancer yet so I am not sure of the context, so the fact that I used an image of people kissing as the background maybe a lil bit off, BUT when I read this quote I thought in…

The Swimmer. The Rebel. The Nerd. All Ryan, Harley and Miles had in common was Isaac. They lived different lives, had different interests and kept different secrets. But they shared the same best friend. They were sidekicks. And now that Isaac’s gone, what does…

(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. 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
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.

I ordered these two before Christmas, and today they finally made their way to me 📚❤️ I was cracking up as I was looking at them next to each other. A queer witchy graphic novel and an autobiography about a manic motorbike racing maverick. Two rather opposite books, highlighting the very different ends of my spectrum of passions and enjoyment 🤣😂📚❤️ #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booksofinstagram #igreads #newbooks #ausyabloggers #aussiebookstagrammer #aussiebookworm #booklove #guymartin #witches #fiction
New year, same old Sarah overloading herself with a mammoth months TBR. Books I’m planning 🤞on reading in January: For the #AusYABloggers January’s New Beginnings Prompt I am planning on reading Dreadnought by April Daniels. For the #TBRtrim20 oldest I am planning on reading one of the first ever books I add to Goodreads when I started using the site in 2013, Shadows of the Realm by Dionne Lister. And for newest i’m doubling up on Dreadnought because I only recently purchased a copy of it - so it counts lol. I have four review books I need/want to get read; Enshrine by Kay Bennson, The Cursed Key by Miranda Brock & Rebecca Hamilton, Esme's Gift by Elizabeth Foster and Ghost Revelations by Aspen Black. And then for some respite, Runaways, Vol. 3: That Was Yesterday by Rainbow Rowell. - - - - - - - - - #bookblogger #bookstagram #bookstgrammer #bookstoread #bookstagramchallenge #TBRtrim20 #ausyabloggers #aussiebookbloggers #aussiebookstgrammer #toread #tbrpost #igreads #booklover #booklove #booknerd
