We’ve been proudly supporting Australian authors since 1879, and we asked some of our staff members to recommend their favourite Australian book to you. Happy reading, Booklovers!

While we do allow both Australian and international titles in our Top 101 list, we know that there are many of you out there who prefer to support local authors and their incredible local stories. To help you prepare your vote, we’ve compiled a list (in alphabetical order) of all the Australian authors and their books that have made it onto the shortlist. 

We've looked at adult fiction to look forward to in 2017, and then non-fiction to look forward to in 2017... Now it's time to look at the young adult books you'll be desperate to get your hands on this year! 

We’ve asked some of our most voracious readers in the office which three books they’d pick from the summer selection promotion, and why you should pick them up too. Their selections cross categories and genres, and we know there’s something in here for everyone!  

Last week we wrote about fiction to look forward to in 2017 and this week we’re back with a big non-fiction preview of the year ahead.

Get ready to add some books to your TBR lists, Booklovers! We’ve put together a long list of new fiction titles coming in 2017 that we’re looking forward to. Grab a drink, either warm or cool (it’s 12pm somewhere, right?), get comfortable, and prepare to discover the books you’re going to love this year.
