2020 New Releases
Just an Ordinary Family by Fiona Lowe - 4★

Favourite Genre (Crime/Mystery)
A Decline in Prophets by Sulari Gentill - 3.5★

[Nicola]

Two reads from my favourite genre
Tetrarch: A Tale Of The Three Worlds / Ian Irvine
Scrutator / Ian Irvine / Ian Irvine

[PattyMacDotComma]

HIstorical fiction - my last book!

As late as the 1960s, Australian Aboriginal children with white blood were forcibly removed from their black families, who were considered incapable of taking care of them. The White Girl is a fictional story about a grandmother and her very fair granddaughter, by Indigenous author Tony Birch. Thought-provoking (and infuriating).
3.5★ LInk to my White Girl review

I find that if a book feels like it is going to be a 3-star or less, I DNF it. So the sample is slightly skewed.

Doing well Odette!! I'm pleased to see your rating for The Beautiful Mother as I've been wondering about it...

It ticked a lot of boxes for me. As well as the writing and setting, the book explored a number of deeper themes, such as motherhood, family, race etc.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Thanks for that Odette - I'll keep my eye out :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I just checked out your list Carol - A Fortunate Life is one I thoroughly enjoyed and is a quick read. I haven't read the second of the two you have left. Good luck, I'm sure you'll do it!!

I'll try A Fortunate Life next then. I can live with one failure but not two, haha.
