Doing @loveozya's #LoveOzYABloggers theme: #Costal Here are my picks: ~ #WordsInDeepBlue by #CathCrowley where part of the backstory is on the coast, but all of the story is beaitiful and full of feels. ~ #SongsThatSoundLikeBlood by #JaredThomas where I (so unlike me) found myself wanting to jog with Roxy around the bay. ~ #SeaHearts by #MargoLanagan because the coast can also be a harsh mistress, and this #Selkie story is breathtaking. ~ #LoveOzYA #bookstack #bookstagram #instabook #books #YABooks

@scott_westerfeld meets teens with super powers? Meet the Zeroes 📚 The author of the *Uglies* series and *Afterworlds* has teamed up with Margo Lanagan and @deborahbiancotti to write this series of books featuring a group of teens with unique and potentially dangerous powers 💣 The powers as avenues for character development is amazing and creates some really interesting problems the group has to overcome 🎭 They can't turn into squids like the Inklings, and they don't use guns, but they're both pretty fresh! 🐙 ************************************* #bookstagram #bibliophile #booknerd #bookish #booklover #bookphotography #readersofinstagram #booksofinstagram #booklove #bookaddict #bookporn #becauseofreading #bookblogger #books #read #literature #tolacunaandback #TLAB #zeroes #swarm #yalit #yafiction #scottwesterfeld #margolanagan #deborahbiancotti #superpowers #amiibos #splatoon #splatoon2 #nintendo

The #LoveOzYABloggers theme is #SciFi🔌 My favourite Sci-fi books usually have little to do with Space. Here are some #LoveOzYA titles that are more inward looking in their speculations. #Zeroes by #ScottWesterfeld, #MargoLanagan and #DeborahBiancotti - Because my mild superpower of winning free movie tickets only gets me so far in life... ~ #ASingleStone by #MegMcKinlay - because WOW! Quiet adventure at its best. ~ #Ida by #AlisonEvens - Because queering parallel universes is alright by me! #AusQueerYA!! ~ I feel that I should include an honorary mention of #WelcomeToOrphancorp by #MarleeJaneWard because it's the bomb! I want to pick it for ALL THE THEMES but will have to limit myself to just a few. ~ #YAbooks #YAlit #YA #books #sciencefiction #speculativefiction #specfic #AusYABloggers

Got to cast my peepers on a finished copy of #MargoLanagan & #RovinaCai's #Tintinnabula today! *Swoon!!!* It's my picture book of the year! Coming out in October. Oh, so beautiful!

#LoveOzYAChallenge Day 26: All Colourful Like. #MargoLanagan's collections of short stories are filled with more colours than their titles suggest. Her use of language is exquisite; surprising and unsettling while filling you with hope and wonder. If you haven't read them, you really much. I'm not saying they're easy, I'm saying they're brilliant! #LoveOzYA #YA #YAlit #yabooks #books #bookstagram #instabook #bookchallenge #book #ShortStories #specfic #colours #RedSpikes #YellowCake #BlackJuice #WhiteTime

In love with my new bookmark! 😍 Thanks, Nicole! 😙 It seems that I don't actually have many "merpeople" books even though I have read a few. This book, Sea Hearts, tore me apart... I think, however, it's Margo Lanagan who broke me. I mean, has anyone read Tender Morsels?! #bookmark #bookmarkexchange #playbooktag #merpeople #seahearts #margolanagan #loveozya #aussieauthor
