Welcome to this month's edition of Six Degrees of Separation, which is a monthly meme hosted by Kate from Books Are My Favourite and Best. The idea is to start with a specific book and make a series of links from one book to the next using whatever link you can find and see where you end up after six links. I am also linking this post up with The Sunday Salon, hosted by Deb at Readerbuzz.
This month the chain starts with Eats, Shoots and Leaves by Lynne Truss.
l wasn't sure how to start this chain this month. In the end, I have taken the fact that Eats Shoots and Leaves is about grammar and decided to link it to a dictionary because grammar and language go together right? So my first book is The Dictionary of Lost Words by Pip Williams
I am continuing down the lost track with The Lost Man by Jane Harper, a book that is set in the harsh Australian Outback.
That brings me to the first book in a big saga called Outback by Aaron Fletcher. I first did a post about the identity of Aaron Fletcher about 10 years ago and I still get comments on that post, most recently talking about his passing.
Keeping with the outback theme, I am choosing Outback Sisters by Rachael Johns which is part of the Bunyip Bay series. There is a new book in this series out in October which I am looking forward to.
A bunyip is a creature from Aboriginal mythology. A book which incorporates Aboriginal mythology into a YA dystopian/fantasy setting is The Interrogation of Ashala Wolf by Ambelin Kwaymullina.
Using the concept of mythology as my final link, I am jumping to ancient Greek mythology with Circe by Madeline Miller
Next month starts with Postcards from the Edge by Carrie Fisher.
