Welcome to Read Your Feelings – a fortnightly letter for book-lovers, by Australian author Amy Lovat.

You’ll hear from me twice a month. Once with a letter about the books I’m reading and the feelings I’m having about them: think personal essay meets book review, with a bit of swearing and a lot of oversharing. 

Then at the end of each month, I’ll share my quick-fire round-up of stuff: life stuff, love stuff, book stuff, other stuff. The big, the small, the incandescent, the nominal. The excellent moon at which I gazed, the experiment with mouth taping, the book I wish had never been written. And always, an earnest recommendation of just one thing.

Paid subscribers go in the draw to win book prizes each month! Not to mention, you get excellent karma for life.

Founding members score a personalised bibliotherapy session with me, and a curated book stack suited to your reading tastes.

Amy Lovat is the author of Mistakes and Other Lovers and the current program manager of the Newcastle Writers Festival. She has a PhD in English and Writing and lives with her wife, a brood of animals, and thousands of books across unceded Awabakal and Gadigal Country in NSW, Australia.
