Books set in, by, or adapted in NZ

NZ books are underrated! I’d love to share our culture with the world ✨

This is a list of books covering many different kinds of sports, all written by women, because I'm tired of people disregarding women in sports. Share your favorite players, athletes, and types of sports!

Whether it be the authors, the characters, the setting, or the country itself, these books are some of the essential reads of Aotearoa New Zealand. Fiction to nonfiction, prose to poetry, the stories of our people and our land are here. This list is ever-growing, and I will continue to add to it as I read more pukapuka from our shores.
