Genie's Weekly News (50)

First of all, I can't believe that this time next week Harry Potter and the Cursed Child will be released! I know all of us booksellers are excited, and it seems that the hype will only get bigger as the release date looms closer...here's to hoping it lives up.

*Reading Right Now*

A book filled with delicious recipes alongside a heartfelt story which tackles some real issues - I'm liking this one!

*Recommendation of the Week*

I finally read another Ginger Scott novel that's been on my TBR for a few months! Up next I'm hoping to get to The Hard Count. 



Aussie author Liane Moriarty definitely impressed me with this book - something I wouldn't normally pick up but I am so glad I did! It's not a quintessential chick-lit but a story much deeper, and very well crafted. No wonder why her novels are so popular (I think I've just become a fan).

Thank you to Tara Eglington for the copy!

Tara Eglington is a fantastic #LoveOzYA author who knows how to write cute, heartwarming contemporaries that will make you swoon. I'm definitely looking forward to this one coming in November!

*#BooksfortradeAU Reminder*

I've posted about this on the Aussie YA Bloggers and Readers Group via Facebook and Goodreads, but in case you missed it - #booksfortradeAU is officially back on in 2016! Thanks to everyone who participated this year, it'll be great to see even more getting involved this time around :)
