Progress report: 2014 Aussie author challenge

Yesterday, having completed 12 crime fiction titles by Aussie authors this year, I thought I had completed what I considered to be the first stage of the challenge.

Then I read the fine print:

Read and review 12 titles written by Australian Authors of which  
-at least 4 of those authors are female,
-at least 4 of those authors are male,
-and at least 4 of those authors are new to you;
- At least 6 fiction and at least 2 non-fiction,
and at least 3 titles first published in 2013 or 2014. 
The bits I've coloured are the bits I have completed with my 12 books.
As you can see I have some way to go.

Currently: 12 - still need one more male author, 2 new to me authors, and 2 non-fiction.
