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

You Are All Amazing!!

Wednesday 11th Sep

A HUGE shoutout to everyone who’s donated so far. You’ve not only fuelled my caffeine addiction but also helped me surpass my initial fundraising goal! Now, I’m on a mission to make this readathon even more epic!


I’ve just conquered The Island, my second book out of five. It was such a whirlwind of drama and suspense that I’m still catching my breath!


Now, I’m diving into my third book, Liar’s Beach by Katie Cotugno. This YA mystery thriller comes with a friend’s seal of approval, so I’m ready for some serious plot twists that might just tie my brain in knots!


Keep the support and good vibes coming as I tackle more thrilling reads and keep this adventure rolling. Here’s to more books, more suspense, and even more coffee!

📚✨ Readathon Update Time! ✨📚

Thursday 5th Sep
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve just turned the last page of my first book, The Haters by Robyn Harding. What a whirlwind of drama and suspense!  And now, I’m diving headfirst into my second read The Island  by Adrian McKinty. This Aussie thriller promises to be more gripping than a koala hug!

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has donated and supported my readathon journey so far. Your contributions are making this adventure possible and keeping my caffeine levels dangerously high! ☕️📖

Keep the encouragement coming as I tackle the books on my list. Here’s to more reading, more thrillers, and more of your fantastic support!
