We were dismayed to see no Australians on the New York Times Best Books of the 21st Century – so, with the help of 50 experts, we created our own, all-Australian list. You can have your say, too!

    Sorry bruh. I’ll start with top 10, not gunna troll through 50+.

    I can sort through any reader app based on my fave genres and rating and I’d be happy.

    I’m always game to give a well rated read outside my preferred genres a go, but I’m not going to start with 50 books listed in what/which? order

      Yeah, I’m saying you (as in “a person”, not you-you) could pick a few from these 50 - I’m not saying start reading 50 books and only finish the ones you like lol. I’d guess “experts” might pick a few of the titles different from popular ratings so there’s probably some meaningful differences vs “goodreads top 50 books by Australian authors”, but I’m not an avid reader so idk, maybe you’d have a better idea 😅

        My bad. No offence intended.

        It’s probably more a reflection of my general topic/genre preference over author/nationality/individual.

        And if you give me 50+ random experts, I’m tapping out…
