I had my first Big W experience when I was in Perth last month. I wanted to buy some books for my two sisters birthdays and couldn't believe there were so may good books for $16 each. They were very happy with my purchases (plus some salted caramel Lindt balls!)

It's on my reading list for next month Sally - it does look really good!

I've just bought the Hannah Kent's The Good People for my kindle. I was going to wait for the smaller versions of the paperback to come out (hate the large versions- too heavy for bedtime reading) but then decided I couldn't wait any longer :)

[Jülie ☼♄ ]

...and thanks to Carolyn ^ ^ I just bought Love You To Death by Caroline Mitchell for the grand sum of Au$1.99 on Amazon :)
So much talk about this one that I couldn't wait wait any longer...though I will have to finish my current read first :/

Where did you get Who Killed The Bride? Butterfly House #1 from Veronica? I like the sound of that but can't find it anywhere, as a paperback or ebook.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I've just contacted the author to get a copy Marlin :) I also looked on Amazon, before I emailed Lily ...

Thanks Brenda, I've just emailed Lily to see if it will be an ebook. For some reason I'm tending to like ebooks these days, much more comfortable to read in bed and I can carry my Kindle in a smaller handbag!
