Welcome to Stocktake Saturday! This feature is where I share some bookish news with you and then show you all the bookish goodies I got over the week.
The cover reveals from the last week – (links to Goodreads pages)

In Bookish News, the cover of Matthew Reilly’s newest book, The Tournament, has been released. I’m excited! The Tournament will be available from Pan Macmillan Australia in Novmber.
I was directed to an amazing resource for finding Australian literature – www.austlit.edu.au – which is a searchable database of books by Australian authors. Check out the list of Australian SFF being released this year! If you’re participating in the Australian Women Writer’s Reading Challenge, or just looking for awesome Aussie books, this website puts titles right at your fingertips.
Kathleen Peacock’s Thornhill (Hemlock #2) will be released in the UK and Australia as Deadly Thorns, in keeping with our title for the first book of the werewolf-centric series, Deadly Hemlock. The Simon and Schuster AU website states the release date as December 2013.
