Posted and received!
My #aussiesecretsanta and #jolabokaflodswap parcels were sent off this morning. I didn‘t get a photo because I had to queue for 40 minutes and by the time I got to the counter I was almost passing out with pain, but both are winging their way to the recipients now.
I also received my own parcel yesterday and it is snuggled under my tree, distracting me every time I glance that way.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag 40 minutes 🤯 Post Office the place to be in December! It‘s looking very festive under your tree 🎄 (edited) 5d
CarolynM I‘ve received a parcel from you today. Thank you! I think it is #jolabokaflodswap ? (edited) 18h
Jhullie @CarolynM spot on! I meant to write that on it, sorry. 10h

Nearly a Pan. Seemed very long to me , wasn‘t sure where it was going so I kept going, seems it was going nowhere. The narrator was a female but I had to keep reminding myself as the voice felt like male to me.
Picked up because it had a rainbow sticker and the author is Aussie.

Absolutely brilliant.
Her plot, the characters and their imperfections are gorgeous in her writing.
Id found Monkey Grip really challenging so very relieved this was so good.

An absolute heartbreaker! Two limbs: both are Australian girls who are attracted to/in love with their female best friends. Told in alternating chapters: one limb grows up to marry a man, the other is out and lives with found family. Both women/stories are impacted by the AIDS epidemic and both tragic, albeit with very different events. I loved this and was torn apart by both women‘s stories.
