  1. I see at least a few of those are for the global challenge Kerrie so it has expanded your reading like it has mine. Of the 70 books I've finished so far this year 39 have been by new to me authors! What I'm struggling to work out is when I'm going to get to read second books by anyone but I am definitely on a discovery kick at the moment.
