I've been reading a book on and off today, in between doing household chores and tending to the daily stuff. It was Wimmera by Mark Brandi, and I actually finished it! I haven't read a book in ages, let alone read one in a day. Having family in northwestern Victoria I was so familiar with the setting, and with the characters being born in the late 70s it made me feel like I was stepping back in time. It was such an authentic and genuinely riveting book! But I still have questions! Aargh! Overall a very satisfying read.
