Since we encourage South African authors to share their books with us, this is a space where we can paste links to our reviews.

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 43 comments Lisa, I'll bring just the few copies I have to the reading on Monday evening at Off the Wall (Touch of Madness restaurant, Observatory). A friend from the Philippines has offered to help me get more copies in the country and maybe do a proper launch - still just a maybe.

Aww, Jim. Sadly I can't be there. Studying for finals. Self- imposed exile:-(

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 43 comments Good luck with the studies. This is just my second public reading in SA - first being "solo" so wish me luck. If there are copies of the book after the reading would you be interested? I'm sending one to a new friend who was also included in the Sol Plaatje 3 anthology which was released last December.

Adele Mey (adlemey) | 485 comments Jim, your reading sounds lovely. Would love to attend, but with full time job and 6 year old daughter and based in Stellenbosch, sadly I can also not make it. Please let me know if you are ever featured on this side.

Jim Agustin (jim_pascual_agustin) | 43 comments Hi Adele, no worries. Stellenbosch is lovely, and the university there has a lot of literary luminaries, I believe. I hope to meet some of them one day.

Leanne Hunt (leannehunt) There are some reviews of my book "Jozi Gold" pasted onto my personal book page at http://diamondpanes.blogspot.com/p/bo... plus bits and pieces about the story and setting. I'm having a book signing on 7 March and a launch on 12 March, both in Johannesburg. Will post details closer to the time for anyone who is interested in connecting!
