I quite fancy this one too Marianne, would slot nicely into my 2015 personal challenge for Aussie authors, as well as TWW challenge...and a debut as well...double bonus points! ;).
Look forward to your final word on it :)

Everyone I speak to is raving about this Phrynne, my book friend at local BigW says it is jumping off the shelves! And only $16 now!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Wow that didn't take you long Phrynne!!! Can't wait to read it now:)

Exactly! ;)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I think I got mine yesterday. I just couldn't resist it! I am going to read Revival by Stephen King now and that's not on my challenge list either:)

[Jo]

Just finished reading Olive Kettrridge by Elizabeth Stroud. A good novel.

Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout

Is that the one Jo?

[Jo]

Yes it is Brenda. I tried to put the link in for the book but it kept saying not found.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Jo wrote: "Yes it is Brenda. I tried to put the link in for the book but it kept saying not found."

You had the incorrect title and author; that's what I found when I searched too. So I googled it, and found it then:)

[Jo]

Ah I see I spelt the novel wrong.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

:) Never mind..it's found now..

This miniseries is screening on Australian television at the moment.

[Jo]

Yes Julie tomorrow night on foxtel. That's why I have been frantically reading it.

Sarah wrote: "Euphoria by Lily King seems to be quite popular!"

It's a New Release and won the Kirkus Prize 2014. Lily King is also one of my favourite authors, her novel Father of the Rain is superb.

[B the BookAddict]

I've finished Euphoria by Lily King; definitely a 4★ rating from me. I'm still digesting certain parts of the novel; stuck between what I learned in high school of the seemingly dour and authoritarian real person, Margaret Mead, and the character, Nell Stone, in the novel. (Of course, at school, you didn't learn of her personality, her verve, her passion for her work). And what a shock at the novel's close, wow, was that unexpected!

[Dale]

It's certainly interesting Regina.

[Sally906]

I have picked up:
The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy by Rachel Joyce - already intrigued to see how the story is going to go. The previous book Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was my first book of 2015 and a 5 star effort - so this has a lot to live up to. So far so good though :)

Yes I didn't see that shock coming either!

[Dale]

Be interested to hear your thoughts Sally.

Will be interesting to hear what you think Sally. I found The love Song of QH better than Unlikely Pilgrimage of HF.

This morning I started by Kate Riordan.

I was into it from the prologue. I won't be able to read more until the boys are in bed tonight...

This The Girl in the Photograph sounds good Regina...keep us posted on what you think of it? I might be tempted to add it :)

[Kate]

Following a recommendation from this site I'm reading and enjoying it so far. I love the Lina Townend series by Judith Cutler and this seems like an American version of the theme.

I love the covers on both of those.

[Sarah]

They are really pretty.

I'm reading (finally) Children of God by Mary Doria Russell

I read the prior book last month and I've been dying to get to this sequel.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I'm currently reading Flesh and Blood by Jonathan Kellerman - one of those books I've had here FOREVER;)

I've started Annabel by Kathleen Winter; the story of an intersex child born into a family in the austere beauty of Newfoundland. I can hardly believe this is a debut novel.

Phrynne, are you a fan of King? I'm not at all but every now and then he puts one out that I like. So I'm curious :)

Unusual for you to have two rated in the 2s. Let's hope your next one is a beauty Brenda.

I have started my 'prize' - Golden Boys by Sonya Hartnett. Very digestible so far!
