I would like to acknowledge that this video was filmed on the traditional lands of the Wurrundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. I would like to pay my respects to their Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander or First Nations people who may be watching this video.

I was so excited for Raiders of the Lost Heart (still love the cover), but it was so underwhelming😓 Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the ones you are keeping! 📚

Such a great idea! I need to do this for my physical TBR, I’m good at getting through what I’m buying now but I’ve had other books for several years without reading them.

Try a chapter for the win! Sometimes a book just doesn't suit me and I'd rather know right away. 📚

I will borrow and start using "aggressively average" immediately! 😎

I love doing Try-A-Chapters. I do them too!

Raiders of the Lost Heart is such a pretty cover and such a fun concept and SUCH a meh book. 😭😭😭

[becklebooks]

Aggressively average is such an accurate and hilarious way to describe a book. I can deeply relate with some of my reading experiences. 😂 Changing your mind SHOULD be normalised!

Edit: Do you have a list of recommendations for Australian indigenous stories, fiction and nonfiction? If you do I must’ve missed it.
