Sera (seraseah) | 1 comments I've only read The Book Thief and I love it so much. I definitely need to check out other Aussie books!

Elly (tragicromantic) | 3 comments Hey Diem, I ADORE Summer Skin! It's definitely been on of my favourite reads of 2016 so far.

Last week I read two particularly excellent Aussie YAs; the Sidekicks by Will Kostakis, and the Yearbook Committee by Sarah Ayoub.

And I also recently read and adored Yellow by Meg Jacobson. Other faves are This is Shyness (Leanne Hall), the Piper's Son (Melina Marchetta), the Cracks in the Kingdom trilogy (Jaclyn Moriarty), apparently I have so many I can't stop so I'm going to press 'post' now.

I LOVED Summer Skin. Such an incredible and empowering read for young women. It's been my favourite Aussie lit so far this year too.
