Thanks for these posts!

I chose Ghachar Ghochar for last month because it was short. It was interesting! And an easy read.

I think I’ll do Picnic at Hanging Rock.

Thanks for the post! I've had Boy Swallows Universe on my list for this one. But it's 450+ pages so I have no idea if I'll manage to get through it.

I love those posts, thanks OP.

I usually enjoy Australian thrillers, not sure yet what I'm gonna read for this coming month.

I've read A Burning for October/India, definitely not a book I would have read without the challenge but I'm glad I did read it although it was deeply depressing.

I read A Burning for October as well and damn it was good but so depressing

Yes I listened to this and I’m so glad. It was tough but I really enjoyed it

I didn't intend to do the challenge, but I'm currently reading Sally Hemsworth's The Good Sister, which is based in Australia. It's okay so far. I'm waiting for some more intrigue and suspense.

Also, Jane Harper should be on here! She's Australian and her books usually take place in really remote, interesting locations. The Dry and The Lost Man were great.

Seconding Jane Harper and The Dry! I loved that book so freaking much

Did you read The Lost Man? I thought it was kind of slow and disappointing for most of it but then the ending totally redeemed it for me. I love that kind of ending. I've been meaning to read it again.

I did, it wasn't my favorite of hers, but I did enjoy it. I bought her latest release The Survivors, I haven't read it yet, so maybe I'll read it next month!
