Happy Australia Day!

The heart of Australia Day, like the heart of the country, is community. Some people call it mateship.

Here at the Dark Side DownUnder, we know the value of community. It's all around us. It's you. It's us. It's our shared love of great books and the journeys they take us on.

If you're looking for an Australia Day event to join, there's a website for that: Australia Day. There's also a fun blog hop, the Australia Day Book Giveaway Blog Hop hosted by Book'd Out and Confessions from Romaholics, as well as the ongoing Australian Women Writers Challenge which is collecting such a stash of great book recommendations and reviews that when you visit, you'll never leave :)

Wherever you are around the world, we hope today reminds you how important you are to your community--and how much we love having you visit! [Why else do you think we de-fanged the bunyip? *wink*]

Happy Australia Day!
