22.01.2022 Another lovely friend and rural author, Meredith Appleyard, has a new book release on the shelves this week. Sporting a very attractive cover, WHEN GRACE WENT AWAY, will be in a bookstore near you! WHEN GRACE WENT AWAY ~ 'Functionally dysfunctional.' That's how financial analyst Grace Fairley describes her family in the small South Australian farming community of Miners Ridge - a family fractured by tragedy and kept that way by anger, resentment and petty jealousies. As the ...eldest sibling, Grace tries to keep the family in touch, but now she's accepted a promotion to the London office. Time-zones and an enormous workload mean she's forced to take a step back, although she finds time to stay in contact with Miners Ridge landscape gardener Aaron Halliday. Sarah Fairley, Grace's mother, fled Miners Ridge and her embittered husband eight years ago. Now, in the absence of Grace, she finds herself pulled back to the small town where her estranged children and grandchildren live. Drawn into the local community, and trying to rebuild family relationships, she uncovers a long-kept secret that could change her world ... Can Grace, Sarah and their family find a way to heal? Who will have the courage to make the first move?
21.01.2022 After hanging out with me here over the years, some of you would know, I’m a closet Matthew Reilly fan. And I’m usually lucky enough to get his latest blockbuster for my birthday. So, here’s this years ... and I’m diving in ... Wish me luck because somehow I’m going to have to remember the last Jack West Jnr book, so I can make sense of this next Jack West Jnr installment. With Reilly’s perchant for ‘out of this world’ crazy, adrenaline pumping, nonstop action, maybe I should’ve gone back and reread the last book again first ...
20.01.2022 Oh my! Lee Child’s Jack Reacher novels are a fav in our family.

16.01.2022 Looking for a good read while we’re all either staying home or - as it is here - close to home ... This. Loved it. Couldn’t put it down. The writing is stunning, the story fascinating, bordering on almost magical. Kate Grenville (author of The Secret River) you’ve done it again ... What if Elizabeth Macarthur - wife of the notorious John Macarthur, wool baron in the earliest days of Sydney - had written a shockingly frank secret memoir. And what if novelist Kate Grenvill...e had miraculously found and published it? A Room Made of Leaves by Kate Grenville. Not a rural romance by any stretch of the imagination, but a beautifully wrought piece of historical writing; a book which will sit on my special shelf forever. See more

08.01.2022 When you have some time on a cold Sunday afternoon to curl up and read in front of the fire, but you end up out in the paddock admiring your calves instead #speckles #herefords #coraballaspeckleparks #karinyaherefords #glenmaggie

04.01.2022 As we move into Spring, I cannot even BEGIN to tell you how much I am loving my homemade muesli right now. If you are looking for a healthy, delicious way to start your day, here’s the recipe link. Although I had a play with the recipe, and use 1/4 cup of good olive oil, and 1/4 cup of maple syrup rather than honey and sugar. I also add Chia seeds, macadamias and a few of whatever other nuts I have in the pantry. (Not my kids though ... ... nuts ... do you get it? It’s going to be one of those days ... ) https://www.taste.com.au//d1904084-500c-4d1c-ae9e-a5db2237
04.01.2022 ‘One hell of a novel’ said Stephen King. Has anyone else read American Dirt by Jeanine Cummins? It’s a difficult, compelling read and one I’m not sure if I like or not ... maybe because it makes me incredibly uncomfortable to realise how lucky we are to live in this beautiful country, while others suffer such staggering danger and deprivation.
03.01.2022 Nora Roberts and I have a love hate relationship. I’m often drawn to her books, but in some, the constant head hopping - often mid sentence - tosses me out of the story and ... well, gives me a headache. It also breaks a cardinal ‘authorland’ rule - No indiscriminate head hopping! Characters have got to earn their right for an opinion in a novel. But, that said, if I was Nora Roberts and had sold 500 million copies of my books, I reckon I’d be entitled to break every rule in... the book and then some ... So, I picked this book up, put it down, walked away, walked back, picked it up, and went ‘It’s about Alaska!’ and I LOVE books about Alaska. (Think Kristin Hannah and The Great Alone!) So I bought it, and I started reading, all in a slight miff of bad grace. It took until page 437 of a 562 page book for her to do it. ‘John’ had no right to a POV that late in the story, but he got it and I forgave him (& Nora) because I really enjoyed this book. If you’re looking for an pleasing romance with a crime twist set in one of the most spectacular places in the world, try Northern Lights by Nora Roberts. A reprint of a 2004 release, it’s a solid, engaging read.
