I love Tara Moss. She does thrillers. I also love Jennifer Weiner – she wrote in her shoes.

I recently read The Natural Way of Things by Charlotte Wood and found her writing style to be fresh and interesting.

Alexandra Duncan- sci fi author. She wrote Salvage, Sound and Blight. Salvage is my favourite. It’s sort of a retelling of the Little Mermaid, but much more than that.

I love reading Diana Gabaldon’s novels, in particular the Outlander series.

I’m a huge fan of female fantasy authors: Trudi Canavan, Alison Croggon and Cecelia Dart-Thornton (all Aussies), Juliet Marillier (NZ), Fiona McIntosh (UK born Aussie) are all faves in this house!

I’m getting to know a lot of great Australian authors. If you have the chance, read them! Josephine Moon, Jenn McLeod, Fleur McDonald, Tess Woods…

MOM93821 you are very welcome!
Outlander has also been made into a TV series as well if thats your thing ^.^
(Personally I always think the book is better)

I love, love, love Jodi Taylor at the moment. I’m up to book 6 in her Chronicals of St Mary’s saga and I’m already sad because it’s the last book and I don’t want the adventure to end. Check out the reviews on Amazon about the books. The first one is called Just One Damned Thing After Another.

Absolutely! I love Monica McInerney! I’ve read all her books and she’s just awesome. She’s Australian/Irish.
I love Jodi Picoult too!

Sara Douglass’ Battleaxe trilogy is up there as one of my favourites, and if you enjoy it there are another two trilogys afterwards that continue the story 🙂
Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series is fantastic too, and there are 8 of those so far, with 2 more planned and several offshoot books that follow some of her characters as well.
