This page contains links to all the reviews on Reactions to Reading that discuss books by Australian authors. I’ve been quite liberal with my definition of Australian to include people born here, people who now live here, people who at some time have lived here and people who have seen a Hugh Jackman movie
From March 2011 I started posting my reviews of crime fiction by Australian authors exclusively at Fair Dinkum Crime which is a joint project I run with another blogger to highlight Aussie crime fiction. I’ve continued to list all the reviews here though (with links to the other blog as appropriate)

Pingback: How Aussie are You? | Reactions to Reading
By your definition, since I’ve seen a Hug Jackman movie, then I’m an Aussie
Which is good because I’m a fan of Australian literature. Thanks for providing the resource.
