To be honest, it felt really strange writing the title of this book on my blog because I don't read any type of crime. Generally, it doesn't interest me, but this year I have decided to read out of my comfort zone a little.

When this gem arrived in the mail I was rather excited, I have always been a fan of the Where's Wally type of books and this one sure didn't disappoint. The Walkabout Orchestra Postcards from around the World, is a beautiful book.
Shout Out to the Girls is my definite pick of the month for a must have book, especially for Australian children and teens. With all the royalties going to The Smith Family charity you not only get to read the book but help those in need. Congratulations to the various Penguin Random House women that put this together, I thank you for opening my mind to possibilities.
