I had been waiting for months to read this!! I was like 120th in the library queue and thought about buying it I’m sure a million times..don’t you love being part of the people hahah Just talking to the themes and delivery of this book I thought it was excellent; really clear, really concise, really […]
I would have LOVED The Favourites at 15, all the angst and miscommunication..all the quest vibes and Olympic Gold..it’s also not fair I was comparing Katarina Shaw to Carrie Sotto..at 15 I would have wondered if they were friends! The ice dancing was super fun too..the costumes and kiss and cry 👌I’m late 40s, this
We’ve all seen the excerpts, you know it’s going to be difficult reading, obviously I know sex trafficking is abhorrent..I kind of didn’t think I needed to put myself through Jenna’s history; but I am so glad to have bore witness. As heartbreaking and tragic as you think it will be; but also so full
I lost count of how many times I laughed out loud. This was hilarious. So much obviously to say about the echo chamber of the digital grid, the age of political correctness and the meaningless of likes..it was all so ridiculously done and i can’t imagine anyone not finding this so funny.. the national treasure,

Absolutely got swept away in this gorgeous debut. I l don’t think I’ve read anything like it. I loved Beth, adore Noah and Ellie, really appreciated the craft group…I was just absolutely there for this finding yourself/ discovering your place in the world story. It’s also made me think differently about disability diagnosis…aren’t we all

This really is like Eat Pray Love with guns. So well done. Intelligent, thoughtful and articulate. I loved being beside Spud as a 17 year old military with officer looking around and wondering what on earth he had signed up for..and that building of the life he wanted, that courage to explore those far horizons.
I loved being back in the world of Kate Cocks..as well as her 5 foot cane..I adored Ethel and her hat and ‘loveable ying to Miss Cocks aloof Yang’ I was completely captivated by the murder and the assault on 15 year old Nellie..I feel as though I’ve walked the streets of 1917 Adelaide (be
