Adele, thank you so much for letting me be a guest on your amazing blog. Happy happy blogoversary, you lovely Australian you. (:
I admit that I have read very, very few book by Australian authors, despite the fact that Adele posts about dozens that I am dying to read. The total number I've read is probably like...6. And four of those would be by Melina Marchetta and Markus Zusak, so obviously I have not read a wide variety of authors.

Very descriptive, I know. Luckily, the book is much more exciting than I make it sound. Amy is a delightfully confident and entertaining narrative, making even the worse things going on seem not-so-bad. I loved how I had to guess along with the characters about what really happened the night the Bad Thing occurred, and how it remained a mystery until the end. I loved seeing how Amy dealt with the Bad Thing, trying to find out what happened while dealing with her loony parents and fun friends.
And personally, my reading experience was much more pleasurable because everything in the book is so Australian. Being American, I find anything foreign to be intriguing and endlessly amusing.

Happy blogoversary, Adele!
Sadly, I haven't read anything by an Aussie authos, but that's about to change. I was contacted by multiple authors, thanks to an interview I did w/Hazel Edwards & Ryan Kennedy, and one of them is sending me her book. It'll be my 1st AU book! I'm so excited!
Feb will be Aussie Month on my blog, since I had I bunch of authors who asked me for an interview. Stop by if you can, and help me spread the word!
xo,
Ella
