The Aussie Author Challenge 2015 was hosted at Booklover Book ReviewsI was aiming initially at Kangaroo (12 titles) but the reality is that I read many more than that in an effort to meet requirements in all categories. It took me until just recently to finish.
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 2014 or 2015.

Another fantastic year, as always, Kerrie. Based on your recommendation, I am determined to get the work of Candice Fox on my reading list in 2016.
