Must be pretty gosh darn good to beat Don Winslow’s CITY OF DREAMS. Great video but can you mention the font size and white space? I dont have the eyes of a 20 year old anymore. But this book should be awesome!!

Wonderful book!

Incredibly difficult to listen to the audiobook as the narrators different voices were extremely irritating!!! I should have read this instead.

Just finished this book and LOVED it!!

Thank you. I also found you can really hear the Australian voice in this one. I guess their bushfires are so similar to ours. I’ve just started it.

Me. Want.

I preordered this on its announcement.

Fabulously informative and entertaining interview!

I actually read this book first and then the first one

Sounds awesome!

He is one of my favourite authors! Pacing, plot, character development.... ahh so good!

Cant wait to read this. 🇦🇺❤

WOOOOO I’M SO GETTING THIS!!

👀🙏

What an utterly extraordinary talent she is.

We’re so proud of Fiona! She’s a local writer with our Albury shop and her being based in Wang. (We’re claiming you over the border Fiona). I hope she comes and does a signing soon- except we’ve sold out!!!!!!!!! So wait til we restock. Jac from QBD Albury.

This one I read in a day!!!! And I gave it 10/10. It’s a heist book, a missing persons story and a human story. I completely engaged with the lead character and I want Candice to write more books about “Andy”. This lends itself to film so well. The bad guys are really bad. Like - I loathe you bad- I’ve been sharing this book with people who don’t usually read crime because it’s that good. There’s a reason she co-writes with the great James Patterson, but Candice’s stand alone books soar above those. What a truly great crime novel this is.

I'm wating for polish edition in my country :D

I just stayed up to 2am reading this. A great read.

She co-writes books with James Patterson

A great way to discover Australia without actually travelling !! 🇦🇺😍

I’m so buying this.

So happy to see this video, yes Sarah is amazing. 😊 I'm learning alot

Great Interview. Thank you. I read Day's End in one sitting, thoroughly engrossed. So many layers.

Kempers podcast is great

Yes please!!

Another brilliant interview. What a great job you have.

I just finished Lola in the mirror and I cried. I’m over seventy, have read thousands of books and never cried over a book.I cried because I didn’t want it to finish,I cried because I was happy, because I was sad, because I was moved,because of the hope that’s portrayed in this book in spite of the world seemingly becoming more hopeless. That river sure is thirsty, it swallows us whole,not satisfied that is insides are saturated,it wants more than we can give. Trent Dalton has produced three of Australia’s greatest books and the world needs to learn about his works.

Fiona speaking about Bryce Courtney really shares how generous Australian writers are. David Malouf had a chat with me at a bar in Canberra last century. Australian writers are different from European, English or American authors. There’s a beautiful team spirit.

I’m a new Fiona addict! What a fantastic interview, too.

Looks great! Great video!

A great synopsis of a most brilliant book and the thoughts of a brilliant writer. The phrase he uses at the end - that we read alone, yet it makes you feel less alone - is so true. Thanks for the interview.

I adored “Boy Swallows Universe”, which I read two years ago- and because I raved about it to my Mum for so long, she gifted me this book for Christmas. I have set aside a whole weekend so I can read it from start to finish in one go. Trent is an incredible, incredible storyteller who still manages to make me look for the positive in everything.

Great review guys. Belinda's press tour is lovely, and she looks and sounds great

The book is awesome and mine is signed thanks guys

I live in Bali, and I love murder mysteries. I found his first book in a bookstore here. I have now read all of them.

I could listen to Bryan talk about storytelling for hours and hours. He’s such a familiar character, to hear him tell a yarn. That’s the voice of the book. Love this interview. He does like to talk - best subject to have. Thanks so much for bringing the book to life. My god I’d love to interview Bryan Brown. Well done Victoria.

Sounds great! Woo!

I loved this book it was great. Tool me back to my first job and we had a wonderful tea lady. So looking forward to April 2024. Love your books, especially The Tea Ladies. Reminded me of how people used to smoke in the offices! So awful. It's amazing the memories it brought back. Just fabulous.

I think many underestimate how much that British "feel good" vibe in many tv-series,movies and books are loved around the world! I am Norwegian but I read these in english because I want to experience them in its raw,funny,typically British form. And I really do adore this series,I have to say they are amongst my top 3 favourites of everything I have ever read! It is pure delight from beginning to end!

Love that we have another book by Kathy. So gripping. Love this kind of crime writing and what a beautiful interview.

This is such an exciting book. Love it. Thank you.

Such a fun interview. I am loving this book. Thanks so much to Benjamin for showing the whole publishing world to the outside world. We all have a lot of books to read. This one is a real joy.

incrediblle vlog! see you later! Qbdbooks~😲

Victoria carthew has got a rockin bod, and a sexy smile

I just watched an interview where DJ says there's a lot of jealousy towards him and i just cringed, it's a poor choice of words. It's sad to see these guys aren't able to get together as mates, considering they've been through so much. I hope they find their peace, individually and collectively

first things first: im so happy that chris survived his health issues and i wish him all the best! hope he easily lives past 100 and sees his grand grand grand kids!! now, i hope that chairboys will meet again behind closed doors and just start to hang out again! that friendship should last till they all are alive! i dont even care if silverchair will reunite as a band. as a fan of the band that had a huge impact on me, its just really dissapointing and unnecessary to see the trio destroying their legacy!! silverchair was once in a lifetime magic, dont ruin it neither for urslef, not for the fans

Cant wait to read this. World class writer !!!

Thanks so much for reviewing this book. It just grabbed me from the first page. It’s been about a month since I read it and I still hear Tessa’s voice. Such a powerful first person narrative. I was absolutely lulled into her understanding of the world, then, the thing happened. I love that this is the book of the month. Definitely not an easy read but an important one.
