Australian Women Writer’s Challenge 2016 – Complete

At the beginning of 2016, I set myself a goal of twelve books for the Australian Women Writer’s Challenge. I have completed this with a couple of extras thrown in. The books I read and links to the reviews of each are as follows:

Historical Romance
The Secret Years by Barbara Hannay – 5★
Paper Daisies by Kim Kelly – 4★
Fairytale Retelling
Bitter Greens by Kate Forsyth – 4★
Contemporary Fiction
Lost & Found by Brooke Davis – 4★
Young Adult
Saving Francesca by Melina Marchetta  – 4★
Thriller
The Hades Trilogy by Candice Fox:
Hades – 4★
Eden – 4★
Fall – 4★
Dark Horse by Honey Brown – 4★
Beyond Fear by Jaye Ford – 3.5★
Mystery/Suspense/Contemporary
Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty – 3★
Australian Classic 
Non-Fiction
When I look at the books I read and the genre’s into which they fell, I was suprised by the number that were thrillers – although, there was a trilogy in there. otherwise I’m pleased I managed to find authors in a variety of genres. I did read a lot more books by Aussie women, I just didn’t manage to review them all to this extent (for a variety of reasons). You can see some of the others on Goodreads.
More to come in 2017 ?
