Thanks Karen! Sneaky Audible :P
Maroochydore looks great! Lots to do there especially as it's near Sunshine Coast. I think you'll be fine! But I now she loves her boarder restrictions as does WA. 😂 🙄

hmmm okay. I googled to see if there's a protest in To Kill a Mockingbird and saw there is a Cultural protests in the form of Atticus protesting Jim Crow culture. Would that work? I can't remember who Jim Crow is

I think it's a bit too broad Celia. I've used it for task 14 - book that features a protest

Hot Dog Girl by Jennifer Dugan"


Ahaha I love that. The sausage costume reminds me of the olive costume from Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging
I'll include it as a 'sausage on the cover in the form of a costume' or something like that

Oop! Hopefully no one noticed on the train! It's interesting that there's no ebook or hard copy of this book. I guess that's Audible though. Are you able to add it to your self please? (:

Whereabouts North are you heading Karen? QLD? NT?
I can't wait until I can travel again. I feel like every time I start thinking about a trip and planning one, something happens in Victoria to prevent it

I used Dear Church: A Love Letter from a Black Preacher to the Whitest Denomination in the US to fill in for Race. but can change it to one of the other tasks.
But I agree with Alysa and Lisa that Race is preferred over mythology

Woohoo!! A promotion AND a trip! What more could you ask for? That does sound lovely though. Congrats on the promotion! :D

Knowing a Hotel will be good puts your mind at ease when on a trip, I would say. It sounds like you'll have a fun and relaxing time :)

Thanks for find that Namita. It should have been copied over so am not sure why it wasn't. It may have been missed. I will have a look through everyone's books this week and make sure nothing has been missed

Oh that's good! I'll see what she says and hopefully we can buddy read it. And I love that you csll it a 'me' problem haha. I think it's a good way to explain why you don't like books. My 'me problem' for not liking books is if they get hyped up by everyone, I automatically don't like it. I have gotten better over the years though thanks to this group and the BOMs :P
