#read2019 The Tales of Beadle the Bard, by JK Rowling, illustrated by Chris Riddell. Neat little stories as popular as fairy tales to wizard children, with wonderful commentary by Albus Dumbledore. Fabulous illustrations, including every person mentioned in the commentary.

Pascoe’s love for Country—and anger and sorrow for the treatment of Indigenous Australia—bleeds from every essay. His fiction, in particular, was a revelation to me. Tender, observant, powerful. The cadence of writing suits it being read aloud, which I did. #read2019
A practical and informative guide to building and sustaining good habits. Very actionable. #read2019
Once Upon a Pet (Ever After High), by Suzanne Selfors — read aloud to C. Short stories about the Ever After High characters’ pets. Pretty cute, but still my least favourite of all the Ever After High books. #read2019
Pang explains how deliberative rest complements, rather than competes with, work. Good premise but ultimately a disappointing read. The plethora of examples obscured the message and was strikingly dominated by privileged white men. #read2019
I finally picked this up, not knowing what to expect, and put it down a couple of hours later. It’s gentle and fierce, about relationships that are both complex and simple. Moving and beautiful. #read2019
Harper has an uncanny way of capturing the essence of Australia—particularly the Outback—in a way that feels almost criminal for someone who hasn’t lived their whole life here. I read this in one sitting. Very, very good. #read2019
A devastating memoir of trauma. Unflinchingly honest. Laced with both humor and insight. Unputdownable — I read it in a couple of hours. (Beware that the book contains many confronting topics.) #read2019
Full of lots of interesting mathematical tidbits, perfect to fill in a few spare minutes. #read2019
Currently listening to #imaginaryfriend by #stephenchobsky on @audible_com It’s super creepy! #audiobooks #horrorbooks #horrorbookstagram #bookstagram #readersofinstagram #read2019 #booknerd #spookystories https://t.co/DVous0k3KM
A beautiful work of fiction about a little girl, a Danish sailor, and the Antarctic ship Nella Dan. Parrett’s writing is always pure and, for me, tinged with sadness. #read2019

#read2019 The Host, by Stephenie Meyer. Earth is controlled by body-snatching aliens. Alien Wanderer struggles because her host Melanie refuses to give up her mind or her furious love for her family. Very slow-moving, but certainly interesting.
Re @robinince “I’m a joke and so are you” ...didn’t expect *such* a deep dive into mental health, suicide, death, grief & our own mortality! Ultimately provides a case for comedy as a healing tool. Little #Adelaide even gets a mention re a convo about suicide?! #read2019
Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, by JK Rowling (read aloud to C — C turned 11, same as Harry, so it was time.) The right mix of silly and serious, and events are connected up with satisfying neatness. The wonder at this hidden world is very nicely drawn too. #read2019
