Read whatever, whenever, however.
Happy Monday, everyone. It's been a wet and miserable week punctuated by running in the rain and getting up early to obtain the last undercover car park. It has made for some cosy evenings reading.

Wow, this last week was so busy. Even the weekend was full on! I really didn't get much done of what I'd planned, but I guess that's the way it goes sometimes. I'm hoping to make up some of it up over the evenings this week but we'll see. I finished two books, but I... Continue Reading →

In brief: May lives in a small Aussie country town, but wants more. Visiting her boyfriend in Melbourne opens her eyes to a new world, but things are about to get a lot more difficult… The good: Captures a time period in Australia that isn't talked about too much. The not-so-good: Couldn't stop reading! Why... Continue Reading →

There's nothing worse than sniffing and sneezing, so I spent most of it sleeping, reading and reading social media. Hopefully now I'm on the mend! Here's what... Continue Reading →
