Reading project, week ending 17 July 2022

What have I read this week? It’s late, sorry.

Golden Boy by Abigail Tarttelin

This is a novel about a teenage intersex boy who is horribly assaulted. I couldn’t finish this; it was too upsetting, partly because it was very well written. I might read more by this author, but will be checking the subject matter first.

Picnic at Hanging Rock by Joan Lindsay

This is a novel about an excursion to Hanging Rock in Australia where three schoolgirls and a governess go missing. I quite enjoyed this, although I found the ending somewhat unsatisfactory. I might read more by this author.
