Reading Pile for Aussie Author Month 2013

During Aussie Author Month I am planning on only reading books by Australian Authors. Because I spent all my 'fun' budget on concerts in the last two months I will not be buying books, so these will be books I already own and love. I may also borrow one or two novels from others if I get a hankering to explore. There are so many amazing authors from Australia but sadly they fly under the radar. I love that Aussie Author Month highlights this homegrown talent. Below is a list of the books I have read so far this month, and the books I am considering reading during the rest of Aussie Author Month.

Read:

• Gift Of the Goddess by Denise Rossetti
• Tail Spin by Denise Rossetti
• Strongman by Denise Rossetti

• Guilty As Sin by Denise Rossetti

*I choose my reading material depending on my mood and how busy I am in my day job. If I am busy and wrapped up in the mundane I usually choose to read something light, either in content or writing style.
