If you click the link in Kathryn's "reply" post which is supposed to be Suzanne's (not Suzanne's original link) check out what comes up!!!

I think it's probably because the reply has truncated the link in Suzanne's post, and what's left links to someone else's review of a completely different book!!!

Both good and very different from each other

Just changed over my Currently Reading to "This Is Not A Drill: Just Another Glorious Day In The Oilfield" by Paul Carter for a 2015 Reading Challenge I'm doing for the 'funny book' prompt. I heard the first chapter or so in audio book form in my Dad's truck a few years back and thought it was quite funny what I did hear so I thought I'd choose that for the prompt as I also had found a paperbook version of it recently.

If you don't know how to link your books Jessica, just click on "add book/author" in this/your comment box and follow the prompts:) We love to check out each others' reads and linking our books makes that possible:)

[Jazs]

Ahhh righto - that's all good! :) I only just joined the group an hour or two ago and haven't really had too much of a lurk around yet and didn't see anything mentioned about linking in the initial posts for the two threads I posted in about specific books. Will do for the future though and thanks for letting me know and fixing up those two posts. *thumbs up*

Agree, love the cover. Already on my TBR. Be interested to hear your thoughts, Sally.

[Dale]

Well, there is one problem after having read a great book. It's hard to settle to anything less. I have picked up, started and discarded at least five of the books here to read since this morning. Just as well there is a good supply here.

[Sharon]

Still catching up on my reviews. Read this a few months ago : Angel Puss by Colleen McCullough 4★

My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Odette]

I started reading The Firebird by Susanna Kearsley
Looking forward to reading more tonight, so must be good!

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I finished Pines by Blake Crouch.

And I have finally finished The Golem and the Djinni. Here is where I justify my three star review to myself and anyone else.

Now I'm on a much shorter book, coincidentally set during the same period - Thomas Keneally's The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith. I believe this is only my second Aussie author this year. For shame!

[Dale]

Finally settled into another book after several discards. Have started The Wanderer by Robyn Carr. Interested enough to keep reading this one.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I finished Outback Midwife by Beth McRae late last night - fabulous book! 5★s

I have just started Girl of Shadows by Deborah Challinor Only a few pages in, but it picks up about 6 months after the end of the first one! Loving it already;)

On Suzanne's recommendation I am reading (and enjoying) The Paperbark Shoe by Goldie Goldbloom, which now makes three books I can remember that have Italian POWs in WA
Bread with Seven Crusts by Susan Temby and The Sunnyvale Girls by Fiona Palmer also have this theme

I have just finished Moving On by Pavan Kaur

I'd not read this theme before The Paperbark Shoe, and funnily enough I picked up The Sunnyvale Girlstoday, brand new. Highly rated from my friends here, as you know!

An excellent read that one Suzanne!

[Suz]

Knew it wasn't one to leave on the shelf at Vinnies today Brenda. I picked up a Karin Slaughter double volume too. Trying not to buy... but it was two for one? That kind of makes it okay? ;)

Karin Slaughter is awesome! I haven't read anything from her in awhile though - I think I'm right up to date:)

I finished The Immortal Rules by Julie Kagawa

[Liam || Books 'n Beards]

Slowly getting through The Long Ships, nearly finished Lost at Sea and about to start The Quantum Thief.

I hate reading multiple books at once :C

[Marianne]

Liam, I ALWAYS have two books on the go. Admittedly very different genres, one is always an "easy" read.

[Suz]

I always said I could never do two, but I don't mind now if one of them is an 'easy' one as Marianne said, and/or a nf..

[Carolyn]

I always have two - a paperback for reading in bed and an ebook for my commute to and from work. Not always different genres.

[Jülie ☼♄ ]

I sometimes have a couple on the go, especially if one is an audio book. But generally I like to get stuck in if it's a really good book I don't want to put down, and if it's not so good, I try to hurry through it just to get it over and done with...I hate not finishing a book once I've started.

Same. Although sometimes if my paperback is really, really good it comes to work with me. Recently someone caught me reading a paperback at work (that sounds bad - it was my lunchbreak) and got all worried, thinking that something had happened to my Kindle!

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I always have two books on the go - one will be a paper or ebook to read at home and the other an audiobook to listen to when I am out walking.

I am also reading this book, I'm just over half way and really enjoying it.
