Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 10037 comments Anyone in the mood for an entertaining, moving and uplifting novella on ageing would do well to try Three Legs in the Evening by American author Bette Ann Moskowitz, whose style is reminiscent of Anne Tyler. 4.5★s

Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett
An enjoyable fantasy. If you like folklore, memorable characters, and fun banter mixed with somewhat dark scenes, this is the one.

PattyMacDotComma | 3338 comments Daniella Mestyanek Young has written a much-discussed story of her life in 'cults' - first a supposedly religious one, and then the US Army. The colourful cover art of Uncultured: A Memoir should be reflected in the print title as "UnCULTured". Quite a story.

Rachel (mimbza) | 735 comments Mullumbimby by Melissa Lucashenko Mullumbimby is an award-winning contemporary fiction by Indigenous Australian author Melissa Lucashenko. It features smart and sassy Jo Breen who finally achieves her dream of owning a property in her ancestral Bundjalung country only to run into problems with the neighbours, her horses, her teenage daughter, and last but not least, the handsome new bloke in town who is putting together a controversial Land Rights claim. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review

Rachel (mimbza) | 735 comments The Seven Skins of Esther Wilding by Holly Ringland The Seven Skins of Esther Wilding by Australian author Holly Ringland is a magical book set in Tasmania, Copenhagen and the Faroe Islands. It covers Indigenous stories, Nordic mythology, selkies and fairytales as Esther tries to piece together what happened to her sister Aurora and what the seven verses tattooed on her back meant. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review
