This is my second year participating in the AWW and I am really looking forward to the challenge, much more than I was last time. Last year I didn’t have a lot of confidence and started hoping to read at least 6 books by Aussie women, and when I met that goal I bumped it up. By the end of the year I ended up reading nearly 30 books which I was quite proud of considering I had a lot going on. I discovered so many wonderful female Aussie authors and I fell in love with their books and their words. I am looking forward to adding to the list of awesome women and hope I can spread some of that love around at the same time.
I am starting this year at my final goal from last year of reading 25 and reviewing 15. I would love it if I could bump that up, I admire all those who have goal’s in the 40s or even the 80s! But for now we’ll stick with the 25. Let’s not run before we read, as it were. I will post updates of my progress through the year and will include the badge on my reviews.
To find out more about the challenge and see if it’s something you would like to participate in, check out the website. The challenge runs from 1st January to 31st December so there is plenty of time to complete your goal, and you can sign up at any time during the year until the end of November.

The problem is more and more publish every year, it’ll be impossible to catch up! 😀

This is my first year – aiming for 6 – Miles and 4 reviews – but I am sure I will surpass that! Starting with The Matilda Saga by Jackie French.
