#77Saturday with #AusYABloggers Featuring The Magnolia Sword: A Ballad of Mulan by Sherry Thomas. I have a thing for girl-dressed-as-boy trope so that's one of the reasons I love Mulan's stories but more importantly, she's Chinese and so brave 🤩 #currentlyreading #amreading #TheMagnoliaSword #SherryThomas #youngadult #ireadya #historicalfantasy #litcelebrasian #retelling #pink #pinkmood #quote https://www.instagram.com/p/CDVN1Jhg_n6/?igshid=1d42giepwd4xo

#dymocksreadingchallenge Book 10 of 26: A book by an indigenous author 👻 Catching Teller Crow by Ambelin Kwaymullina & Ezekiel Kwaymullina 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 Absolutely adored this book! On the surface, so easy to read with intriguing mystery, dynamic characters and loved that father-daughter relationship. Dig deeper and I'm just blown away by the ingenious way these authors have sent their most serious message across 💔🖤❤ Needless to say, I sobbed too near the end, in a good way. I also read this for #AusYABloggersReadingChallenge to fit July's prompt: Indigenous Voices. #77Saturday #LoveOzYA #CatchingTellerCrow #AmbelinKwaymullina #EzekielKwaymullina #indigenousreads #aussieauthors #aussielit #ireadya #mystery #ghosts #youngadult #ausyabloggers https://www.instagram.com/p/CCfC3ZkAfxC/?igshid=mdm2rk7vs23w

#77Saturday 💡 I really just want to show off what arrived today 😁 Thanks, @qbdbooks 💜 A Wish in the Dark by @csoontornvat 🔸️Synopsis🔸️ A boy on the run. A girl determined to find him. A compelling fantasy looks at issues of privilege, protest, and justice. All light in Chattana is created by one man — the Governor, who appeared after the Great Fire to bring peace and order to the city. For Pong, who was born in Namwon Prison, the magical lights represent freedom, and he dreams of the day he will be able to walk among them. But when Pong escapes from prison, he realizes that the world outside is no fairer than the one behind bars. The wealthy dine and dance under bright orb light, while the poor toil away in darkness. Worst of all, Pong’s prison tattoo marks him as a fugitive who can never be truly free. Nok, the prison warden’s perfect daughter, is bent on tracking Pong down and restoring her family’s good name. But as Nok hunts Pong through the alleys and canals of Chattana, she uncovers secrets that make her question the truths she has always held dear. Set in a Thai-inspired fantasy world, Christina Soontornvat’s twist on Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables is a dazzling, fast-paced adventure that explores the difference between law and justice — and asks whether one child can shine a light in the dark. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_8wZuwA98W/?igshid=1c006jh1x9amo

#77Saturday 🛣 I've just started this, a most anticipated 2020 release, Fly on the Wall by @rrremylai this morning so I've just read that the protagonist, Henry Khoo, is about to embark on the greatest adventure everrr like in the wuxia dramas he likes to watch with his popo (grandma). Now I feel like watching one of those, of course 🤣 ⚔ FYI, Jin Yong is one of the greatest and most popular wuxia writers ever and one of his most popular trilogy has now been translated into English! 💞 #FlyOnTheWall #RemyLai #AusYABloggers #LoveOzMG #middlegrade #middlegradebooks #contemporary #aussieauthors #australianwomenauthors #aww2020 #diversebooks #currentlyreading https://www.instagram.com/p/B_rbDWxAUvp/?igshid=m55s56qyo1l3

#77Saturday My bookclub was scheduled to meet today & we were reading my pick ‼️ A Few Right Thinking Men by Sulari Gentill 🖌 But instead we'll just do a quick zoom catch up to check on how everyone is doing in isolation. I hope you're all keeping safe and in touch (even if virtually) with your loved ones. And do what you need to stay sane like knit or draw; if you're after a fun sketching project, @rrremylai is currently running one 😜 #AusYABloggers #bookstagram #quote #AFewRightThinkingMan #TheRowlandSinclairMysteries #SulariGentill #ausbookishfeatures #australianwomenauthors #aussieauthors #aussielit #historicalfiction #historicalmystery #mystery #firstbookinaseries https://www.instagram.com/p/B-iiM0egWkS/?igshid=1k8l8yo3g7bjb

#77Saturday I haven't done anything productive today and I think that a sign that I'm possibly somewhat in the dump BUT I figure I need to channel some goodness and what more fitting quote than this!?! Let's all do our bit, hey! It's the only way we can survive this & remain human 💞 🦢 The Swan Maiden by Serene Conneeley Once upon a time, a young girl cried all her sadness into the lake of her local city park, and a lonely black swan drank a tear and was transformed... For Signet, being human is much harder than she imagined. There are machines that are trying to kill her, people who want to replace her, and dizzying new emotions she'd rather not feel. When she finds herself torn between two wildly different worlds, she must discover how much she's willing to sacrifice, where she really belongs, and who she truly is. Enter a world where birds shapeshift into wizards, women emerge from sealskins, swans transform into maidens, and love is the most powerful enchantment of all. #igreads #bookstagram #TheSwanMaiden #SereneConneeley #fairytale #youngadult #LoveOzYA #ausbookishfeatures #australianwomenauthors #aussieauthors #AusYABloggers #readthroughcovid19 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-RGZ72gCav/?igshid=mgecashoqv8x
