Our July read is Bluey's War

This month's book selection is written by a Queensland author and set in the border town of Goondiwindi. While tracing the relationship of two childhood sweethearts, the book is largely about the impact of the Second World War on our returned soldiers and how, for many of them and their families, their war lasted long after Victory Day.

 

 

Here are the reactions from a couple of readers.  It is a while since we have read an Australian book, let alone a Queensland based book, so from that perspective it's nice to come home for a bit.

 

Looking forward to hearing about your experience of this thought-provoking book.
