Australian Women Writers Challenge discussion

This year I opted for 50 again, after smashing that in 2015. Am hoping to smash it again, I have a pile of Aussie Women Writers already on my desk TBR pile so here's hoping.

Good for you Michelle:) Happy reading!

Good luck Michelle :)

Thanks Ladies, I just spent the last hour and a half updating all my review links on the AWW website... let's hope I don't have to do that again.

Well done! Now if I can suggest you do it as you read them throughout the year it'll make it sooo much easier;) That's what I do! A huge job when you leave it to the end:)

I know, that was my plan at the beginning of the year but I don't actually publish my reviews so can't do it when I write them... might have to add it to my reoutine though. :)

Don't you put your reviews here Michelle? It'd be great if you did - on the book's page and link it in here. Then we can check out your thoughts on that particular book, and add it to our TBR if we like the sound of it. Also too, then you can go straight to the AWW site and put the link there too:)

My reviews go up at Beauty and Lace and I try to link them from here too but don't always get there.

Here's really good too if you can:)

Yeah I might try and start doing things a little differently next year

Excellent - looking forward to reading your reviews:)

Good luck Michelle. I'll enjoy seeing what you read during the year :)

Good luck with your reading and smashing your challenge! What kind of books do you like to read - also what books are on your TBR at the moment? First up on my planned reading is the 12 Planets 12 book collection from Twelfth Planet Press - they're short fiction single author collections by a bunch of Australian women writers. I've been meaning to read them for AGES, so this is the time!

Sorry, I didn't see this earlier.
I read pretty much anything and my TBR is crazy huge already.

I am about to embark on the big decision of what to read next.... tough call

So my first 7 reviews are live....

Do you have them on Goodreads Michelle? We can't tell what books you've read or what your thoughts on them were...

Thanks Brenda. I need to remember to put it in all the places.... before I just used to put them on the website, doing the challenge adds so many places :)

I know what you mean:)

argh, cos when I see it my review is at the top

You've fixed it all now though:)

I always like both links incidentally - I add blogs to my rss feed from stuff like this if a reviewer tends to review stuff I consistently like :) but also nice to be able to encourage quickly and easily via goodreads too :)
