Beautifully written and I was seriously unable to put it down. I read most of it in one night. The novel opens with Charlotte returning home after suffering a head injury and how she puts the pieces of her life back together. As the reader we go with her as we too do not know who to trust and feel uncertainty about everyone. A wonderful suspenseful and romantic tale which will keep you guessing until the end. A very enjoyable read!

This book kept me up at night! Creepy and haunting and dark. Loved this novel of demons and vampires and humans and their complex relationships. The series keeps getting better and better! Book 2 is wonderful ❤️ 📷 labibliotecadecarfax Instagram

Loved this book! I particularly loved the three characters Gabriel, Moth and Teal, the tenderness and complexity of their brotherly bond and Love was truly beautiful. Definitely creepy but juxtaposed with beautiful human relationships or that resemble human 😊

Reading has the power to change your thinking and therefore has the power to change the world. I'd love to know the stories that influenced you. My list is not exhaustive but include some of my favourites.

Looking forward to reading this and chatting to the author Kevin Spiteri about his work and time working at a Fortune 500 company. #nonfiction #podcast #book

Holiday reading list! My mum has been fan-girling over Craig Johnson for years. Just started The Cold Dish and loving it. #craigjohnson #thecolddish #longmire

I loved loved loved this book! Part fiction part philosophical essay this book has so many truths I had to put it down and breathe a number of times because I thought de Botton was inside my head or had Big Brother cameras in my house! If you've ever loved, or are in love, or plan to love this book is for you. Insightful, beautiful, honest and terrifying. The Course of Love is a must read 📚

This was a fabulous read! Hilariously funny and original, as well as disturbing. I would highly recommend this book and then watch the film, its a great film adaption. Read this!

This appropriation of The Tempest was so much fun! Set in a prison we follow our flawed protagonist as he navigates life and finds purpose. Beautifully written, sad, hilarious and everything in between. I wrote a blog too: @daniruth/4-reasons-why-atwoods-hag-seed-is-as-relevant-as-ever-51b0213a95b4?source=linkShare-1473e9865ddf-1506158681" rel="nofollow" target="_top">https://medium.com/@daniruth/4-reasons-why-atwoods-hag-seed-is-as-relevant-as-ev...

This book is a real gem. I've always loved Hamlet, maybe because I studied it in my final year of high school or because I've always had a weakness for tortured boys (a whole other story lol) but to have an alternate perspective and ending from the perspective of Ophelia is wonderful! Now I'm about to teach a unit on appropriation using this novel and Shakespeare's Hamlet. Excited nerd 🤓

Hanging out with author John Larkin today. He does a stellar job talking to young people about writing, they had a blast and so did we 📚

1. James Fahy's blog. 2. I've always been a reader and a lover of stories. 3. Childhood ones my parents bought me. Bloome, Charlotte's Web, Dahl. Chaucer's Tale reminds me of high school and my English teacher. 4. I love the words of Perlman, Winton, Cunningham. 5. Podcasting. Writing. 6. Narcos, GoT, Suits, The Walking Dead. 7. Shaun Tan, The Red Tree. 8. Reading, podcasting with authors. 10. My mum and English teacher.

Can't tell you how much I love this novel. Not sure if it's because it is still absolutely relevant in the age of social media and trying to project the perfect life, or whether it was because Wilde was so ahead of his time or because Dorian lives out a rebellious and secret life that we'd all like to escape to once in a while. I am interested in what would make you turn to the dark side? Now I share it with another generation 🎁

One of my favourite Aussie authors Elliot Perlman. I was seriously an embarrassing gushing groupie and I didn't even care. I don't want rockstars I want an author who has a way with words ❤️

Inspired by a real student this book is beautiful and hard to read but should be. Loved chatting to John, he's a top bloke, feminist and just thinks the way people should. John for PM.

Caught up with good bloke John Larkin to chat about The Pause and how awesome a read it is. Deals with some serious issues around mental illness which is pretty important. Keep the conversation open and flowing with our young people, people.

Read this little gem in just over a day. Perfect for introducing the young reader to the cult of fantasy genre, get them young I say. Had a chat to author Peter Wilson for our podcast. Love supporting local talent.

By the time I got to Book 2 I was staying up past midnight reading it and neglecting all the other things that get in the way of reading like work. Oh well! Book 3 please!

Read Book 1 and 2 in a week! Loved it and can't wait for the next one. Dark and funny and intelligent.

Loved this series. It became my vampire blood. This series is far more than vampires and werewolves, it provides a commentary of societal issues and questions who the real monsters in this world actually are. The book also has so much humour, I had a real love for Cloves by the end!
