Everyone is enjoying some of the best fiction Australia has to offer at the moment, with gripping crime reads from Jane Harper and Chris Hammer, a surreal and audacious literary offering from Richard Flanagan and new bestsellers from Trent Dalton and Craig Silvey.

Two notable new international releases made their first appearance on our bestsellers this week: the zeitgeisty debut fiction from memoirist and podcaster Dolly Alderton, and Matt Haig’s enchanting novel about life choices and regrets.

And of course, we have to mention Sir David Attenborough’s legacy-defining A Life on Our Planet, which represents years of cumulated wisdom and his vision for the future.
