'Prodigious research…illuminating detail.' —TheAustralian
'A tour de force.' — Professor Rodney Tiffen
Before
newspapers were ravaged by the digital age, they were a powerful force,
especially in Australia — a country of newspaper giants and kingmakers.
This
magisterial book reveals
who owned Australia's newspapers and how they used them to wield political
power. A corporate
and political history of Australian newspapers spanning 140 years, it explains
how Australia's media system came to be dominated by a handful of empires and
powerful family dynasties. Many are household names, even now: Murdoch,
Fairfax, Syme, Packer. Written with verve and insight and showing unparalleled
command of a vast range of sources, Sally Young shows how newspaper owners
influenced policy-making, lobbied and bullied politicians, and shaped internal
party politics.
The
book begins in 1803 with Australia's first newspaper owner — a convict who
became a wealthy bank owner — giving the industry a blend of notoriety, power
and wealth from the start.
Throughout the twentieth century, Australians were unaware that they were
reading newspapers owned by secret bankrupts and failed land boomers, powerful
mining magnates, Underbelly-style gangsters, bankers, and corporate titans. It
ends with the downfall of Menzies in 1941 and his conviction that a handful of
press barons brought him down. The intervening years are packed with political
drama, business machina

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons.
A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good.
B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy.
Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”??
Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer.
Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s
Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward.
Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud
Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.

Slightly repetitive but I did love some things
Format: Kindle
I love this type of story. And omegaverse is one of my all time favorite genres. But there are a few things that pulled me out of my enjoyment while I was reading. It was repetitive at times as well as struggled with telling not showing. So we didn’t always feel like we were experiencing things with the main character. There were also some plot holes but they may still be answered in part 2.
Now this isn’t to be said I didn’t enjoy parts of the story. I loved the almost instant love between Mila and Oliver. And how he started changing around her.
