20.01.2022 FREEBIE FRIDAYS This week we have an Advance Reading Copy of Jacinta Parsons memoir Unseen, which explores the secret world of living with chronic ilness. Unseen will be published 29 September 2020. Broadcaster Jacinta Parsons was in her twenties when she first began to feel unwell the kind of unwell that didnt go away. Doctors couldnt explain why, and Jacinta wondered if it might be in her head. She could barely function, was frequently unable to eat or get out of b...ed for days, and gradually turned into a shadow of herself. Eventually she got a diagnosis: Crohns disease. But knowing this wouldnt stop her life from spiralling into a big mess of doctors, hospitals and medical disasters. Whats most extraordinary about Jacintas story is how common it is. Nearly one in two Australians live with a chronic illness, but most of these conditions are not obvious, often endured in secrecy and little understood. They are unseen. With compelling candour, Jacinta trains a microscope on the unique challenges of living with an invisible condition. She lays bare the struggles with shame, loss of identity, the threat of mortality, and the profoundly complex relationships between the chronically ill and their own bodies, as well as with those around them. Its a story of trying to fix an unfixable illness, getting beaten down then clawing back up, and how that experience can shape a life.

And now, when it seems that fate is offering her second chances, she is not as sure of the choice she once made. As the story unfolds, Dawns two possible futures unspool side by side, as do the secrets and doubts long buried beside them. Dawn must confront the questions shes never truly asked: What does a life well-lived look like? When we leave this earth, what do we leave behind? Do we make choices...or do our choices make us? And who would you be, if you hadnt turned out to be the person you are right now? TO ENTER: Like and share this post, then comment when youre done!

10.01.2022 FREEBIE FRIDAYS This weeks Freebie Friday is an Advance Reading Copy of Song of the Crocodile by Nardi Simpson, a captivating Australian saga from the winner of the 2018 black&write! fellowship. Official publication will be in October 2020. Darnmoor, The Gateway to Happiness. The sign taunts a fool into feeling some sense of achievement, some kind of end- that you have reached a destination in the very least. Yet as the sign states, Darnmoor is merely a gateway, a waypo...int on the road to where you really want to be. Darnmoor is the home of the Billymil family, three generations who have lived in this gateway town. Race relations between Indigenous and settler families are fraught, though the rigid status quo is upheld through threats and soft power rather than the overt violence of yesteryear. As progress marches forwards, Darnmoor and its surrounds undergo rapid social and environmental changes, but as some things change, some stay exactly the same. The Billymil family are watched (and sometimes visited) by ancestral spirits and spirits of the recently deceased, who look out for their descendants and attempt to help them on the right path. When the towns secrets start to be uncovered the town will be rocked by a violent act that forever shatters a century of silence. Full of music, Yuwaalaraay language and exquisite description, Song of the Crocodile is a lament to choice and change, and the unyielding land that sustains us all, if only we could listen to it.
