  • A Life Less Punishing

    By Matt Heath
    0 stars

    After hearing this quoted endlessly by my husband on our evening walk, I had to read it myself. I'm loving the combo of self help, humour and philosophy.

  • Pride and Prejudice - the play

    By Jon Jory

    Play version of P&P that retains all the best lines, even if they appear in unexpected places.

  • We Didn't Think it Throughh

    By Gary Lonsborough
    4 stars

    Another insightful novel from the author of Boys From the Mish. Three friends from a small Australian town steal a car as a revenge act for ongoing racism and bullying they've exoerienced in school. They get caught by the cops and end up in juvenile detention. The story follows one of the characters as he discovers the power of words and poetry as a redemptive and transformational power towards a new positive life once he finishes his time in prison. This could be an excellent addition to a mixed box of class readers for Year 9 and 10 and would appeal to students with an interest in both social justice and the arts. I already have a few students in mind!
