These books sound wonderful! I've been very into Australian books (and TV) recently so I will definitely be checking a few of these out. Thanks for the recommendations!

Great to hear! I wonder what you think about Australian stories and TV? Do you find you can imagine the places in books and get enough context from the authors when you come across something that seems "Australian"? For me I find I can imagine any place if the writing is good, but I have a richer vision or understanding when it's something I'm familiar with, like a place or country.

I absolutely love The Thursday Murder Club books! I remember they had a quiz to see which character you are more like, and I was a Joyce! 😊

I love your photos of the libraries and I have often said that I could happily be locked into a room full of books for a month, just as long as there was a warmth, a big chair and someone would bring some tea and food once in a while.

I also love libraries, this one looks otherworldly with these old tomes.

That's great! TBibliotheca Armando Olivares was a very special place and gave me an even greater appreciation of the written word!
