BLOG HOP HOSTS
Another 26th January has come around where the blow up thongs , the Eskys and the barbies will be out in full force. No not that type of thong, although if it is a nice day I am sure there will be some out and about and no, not that type of barbie, the one we throw snags on.
To celebrate we are joining in on the Aussie Author only giveaway.
Now my donation is not an actual book, ( what can I say, I am a rule breaker) but he is an Aussie Author. I have a signed , by the man himself, Jay Kristoff , 'Stormdancer' print. I sent it to him to be signed and he kindly did that for me. I am sure nobody will complain. The rules are , we had to have an Aussie Author, we can now go International, which makes a lot of sense to me. We can show off our Aussie Authors to you all.

Not sure who I've read lately, but John Marsden's Tomorrow series is one of my absolute favourites
ReplyDeleteThanks to the Australian Women Writers Challenge, I'm reading a lot of Aussie authors. I just finished a really hot paranormal romance by Christina Ashcroft, "Archangel of Mercy", and I've tracked down a copy of "The biggest estate on earth : how Aborigines made Australia" by Bill Gammage ... now I just have to brave the heat and go to the library to collect it :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Australia Day!
I believe it was Tim Winton's 'Cloudstreet'.
ReplyDeleteWell, I've read a lot of books lately, but I'm not sure about the authors. Maybe there's one of them is Australian author.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this giveaway and Happy Australia Day :)

Graffiti Moon by Cath Crowley! Loved this book!
ReplyDeleteKate Morton. She's definitely become one of my faves, and I've recently read The Secret Keeper and The Forgotten Garden. I adore how her books are historical and incorporate Australia.
ReplyDeletehaven't read any Australian authors yet
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! I`m in love with this giveaway! :) I`m from Europe and I`m non-native English speaker; there is not a very big choice of books in English here (except online shops) and they`re usually from American and British writers so this is a very beautiful opportunity to get to know the Australian writers :)
ReplyDeleteI recently won a book Shine Light by Marianne de Pierres who is also an Australian writer but haven`t read it yet since it is the 3rd book in the series!
Thanks!
The last Australian author I read was Keri Arthur.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win!
I think the last Aussie author I read was John Marsden (Tomorrow series). I'm up to the fifth book now, I just need to grab a copy of it and be on my way. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMelissa Browne, "More Money for Shoes," has taught me a different way to evaluate how I am spending money personally and professionally.
ReplyDeleteI've read Burn Bright by Marianne de Pierres!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Leanne
The last Aussie Author I read was Kate Morgan.
ReplyDeleteHappy Australia Day weekend. :D
Happy Australia Day. What is the print? Is it a book cover? I'm very interested in book cover art, all the best, Joe Jeney
ReplyDeleteI just finished Mistress to the Crown by Isolde Martyn and The Girl in the Hard Hat by Loretta Hill. Now I'm reading Dancing to the Flute by Manisha Jolie Amin. Thanks for the great giveaway and for visiting my blog and entering mine. It's been a great hop (my first).
