The Palazzo gave me all the feels, you don't know who has been killed or who is the killer..it's a group of family and friends staying at a luxurious palazzo behaving badly..you had better believe I was there for this story! It feels like everyone in my feed is overseas at the moment so this was (almost) the next best thing! 

SO warm, SO much good eating and drinking, SO much time by the pool...such a great winter read! I loved The Palazzo and chatting with Kayte Nunn just reinforced that love. Kayte has been a book and magazine editor, as well as a historical fiction author...the descriptions are just so lush and vivid, and there is so much to think about once you have finished, it was great to get to chat about all the layers in here in The Palazzo!!

I adored Cockatoo Cove and the chat I got to have with Maya Linnell. I turn into a tree change wanta be I think whenever I read a Maya Linnell; small Australian rural town living sounds perfect! And if that meant running into Scottish winemakers reading Outlander..well when can I move? I am loving her Limestone Coast series and I am sure Cockatoo Cove is my favourite..we get the story of Fergus the Scotsman and Maggie who I love...

I could chat to Michael Thompson all day every day, I am a huge fan of his novels and could not have loved All The Perfect Days more. I can't even imagine what I would do with the ability to see how many days a person had left to live; would you warn? Watch? Ignore...what a premise for a novel! Through in a small town and a love of a life and goodness me; I am there!!! Loved it!!!

This does sound unedited, but honestly I took out lots of giggling and lots of just chat! It is hard to talk the sex lives of married women when you are me and not be giggling through the conversation! 

I devoured this book, I do compare it to cocktails with friends and I stand by it! Super fun and so much to think about!

I devoured How to Kill a Client and absolutely jumped at The Bluff..I was completely chuffed when I got to speak with Joanna Jenkins and cannot believe how much I loved the opportunity! So interesting!!! No wonder I couldn't pick the killer!!!!! There is so much to enjoy and ponder with The Bluff...I really enjoyed it and think it would make an excellent bookclub book! Too many spoilers for here!

Cannot believe historical thrillers weren't on my radar! I loved this one!! What a way to thrill!!! The opportunity to speak to Pip Fioretti was just the icing on the cake for me! Fantastic!!

I had never heard of depersonalisation prior to hearing Nathan's experience, and gosh I am glad I have. I think this is just such a generous memoir and I am so glad I read it. Nathan was exactly as I pictured he would be, I really loved our chat! 

I took out lots of chitchat, but I did leave in the 'what do you call it when as a reader you know you can just settle in and enjoy..' chat there must be a term for it; like bookish hygge....hahaha 

I also realised on my last listen through it sounds like I think writing a thriller would be easy; obviously not!!!! I just meant telling a story might be easier than telling your story... you know what I mean?!?!

What a fun chat this was! I really loved Whiskey Valley, I love the Southern Highlands of NSW and loved all the eating and drinking that was being done while a murder was being solved! Definitely my way to investigate crime!! It was a real treat to get to chat with Joan Sauers, and I could have kept going all day...I did take lots of our chitchat out, but you had better believe I left in the part where Dave gets to be the bagpiper in the movie/ TV series..that *may* be something Joan needs to be reminded of..hahah he clearly has the gig....

Gosh I loved this book and chat, loved Georgia! What Would I Do to You imagines an Australia that has brought back capital punishment, with the stipulation that it is the victims family that have to do it themselves...talk about a premise!!!!! 

I also got to find out more about Georgia's important role as an Author Ambassador with Chapters for Change; an incredible charity to combat Cambodia's high illiteracy rate. The Readathon is just around the corner and it is honestly the most fantastic charity; https://www.instagram.com/chaptersforchangeau?igsh=MXUyZHowcnMydnZvbA== is their insta page and it is super easy to help from there!!!!
