Help me take on the World's Coolest Readathon!

Help me support the mental health of Australian Heroes

I am participating in The World's Coolest Readathon by reading 5 books in 30 days between the 1st and 30th of September!

All money raised goes toward the mental health charity 'Brothers and Books', whose programs support our Australian Defence Force soldiers, Veterans and emergency services. 

Please help me reach my fundraising goal! Sign up yourself to read some great books and support a brilliant cause!

My Updates

Almost there

Monday 30th Sep
Thanks to house sitting and flights I gained a little more reading time. Book 5 is underway. I may not turn the final page tonight, but that’s not really important. 
Raising funds and raising awareness is what it’s all about. I’ve really loved getting back into reading for pleasure, and not study 📚 

Decided to swap out one of my books

Sunday 22nd Sep
I decided I’d swap out the Lost Apothecary for this one. Good decision. I wasn’t really in the mood for fiction. I’m enjoying biographies at the moment. This is book 4

What to do with my free time now study is done

Saturday 14th Sep
Today I submitted my final assessment for grading. Study is officially over. What shall I do with my free time…… more time to read my books = WINNING 📗💪🥰

Ready for book 3

Thursday 12th Sep
Turned the frustration of flight delays into an opportunity to read. A week away for work provided me a couple of hours each evening and 4 hours sitting in airports & on planes to read more. Ready to hit book 3 💪
