Unfortunately the gusty winds in Sydney on Sunday played havoc with my allergies and I had to stay inside and read instead of working in the garden ;)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Haha good job 😆 Got the weather to cooperate too, very clever 😉

Actually you can add another 97 pages to my total as I finished The Liftsal Guardians by Alexandra Moody late last night - I thought I was going to be too tired to read after a busy weekend - but no.

So my final total is now: 592 pages
