Do you even have Goodreads in Australia, Bookpossum?
My guess is that it has probably been read mostly by Australians and maybe not a huge number of them are on Goodreads - don't know! I only heard of it after I had joined MR. What an insular lot we are! (Except that we are a continent rather than an island - we used to be called both but not any longer.)
