Indie Romance Books That I Have Loved

Jul 21, 2022

As you may know, I’m doing the Indie Accords Readathon this month – which you can check out more here. So today I thought I would share the indie books I’ve enjoyed reading over the last few years and think that you may like as well.

This list isn’t everything. I have read a lot of indie and self-published books over the last 3 years especially. But these are the ones I’ve really enjoyed and want to share with you all. As I mostly read indie romance books, I’ve decided to just include those in this post today.

Just a quick note, please check the trigger warnings for each of these books. There are some dark romances, and other triggering content mentioned in some of these books.

Another thing if it’s a series, I’ve just shared the whole series, rather than each book in the series. If’s a standalone book in a series, with no continuous story, I’ve only shared which book I’ve loved.

So let’s get into it. These are the indie and self-published romances that I have loved reading. As always these are in no real order.

And there we go! Those are just some of the indie romances that I have really enjoyed reading, and hope that you do to. Hae you read any of these? What did you think of them? What are some of your favourite indie and self-published romance books? Let’s Chat!

Books I Haven’t Read From My Favourite Authors

Jul 19, 2022

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is a freebie, so I thought I would do a past topic and share the books from some of my favourite authors that I haven’t read yet.

This was such an interesting post to do. Not only am I sharing some of the authors that I love, but also putting a tbr together for the books that I hope to read soon. There are a lot of books out there. And some of the authors that I love have written a lot. Which means I haven’t read all of their backlists. There are also authors that I have only discovered recently, so I am slowly making my way through their books.

So today I’m sharing some of the books from my favourite authors that I haven’t had the chance to read next. As always these are in no order.

Sacrifice (Bloodline Vampires #1) by Katee Robert | The Things We Leave Unfinished by Rebecca Yarros. | Archangel’s Kiss (Guild Hunter #2) by Nalini Singh | Bombshell (Hell’s Belles #1) by Sarah MacLean.

He’s a Brute (Tough Love #1) by Chloe Liese | A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor (Tempting Monsters #1) by Kathryn Moon | Only a Breath Apart by Katie McGarry | Honey Trap (The Guild #1) by Tate James.

The Truth About Lord Stoneville (Hellions of Halstead Hall #1) by Sabrina Jeffries | Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune.

And there we go. Those are the books from my favourite authors that I haven’t read yet but I’m really looking forward to reading. Have you read any of these books? What did you think? What books and authors would make it to your list? Let’s chat!

Indie Accords Check In

Jul 17, 2022

As I’m writing this we are at the halfway point of the Indie Accords. The Indie Accords Readathon last the whole month of July and it’s all about reading and sharing the love for indie and self-published books. If you want to check out more about the readathon and see my tbr from the start of the month, check out my tbr post and introduction.

Today is the halfway mark, so I thought I would share some updates from the readathon. As of the 15th, I have read 11 books, have had a blackout bingo and am already on the way to getting another blackout bingo.

I’ve read 6 books from my original tbr and plan to read a few more in the coming days. While I would have loved to stick to all my books from my tbr, I’m a mood reader and I knew that I was going to stray from it. So I don’t feel too bad about it. So let’s get into what I’ve read so far.

Savage Lover (Brutal Birthright #3) by Sophie Lark – 4 Stars Reread | Little Taste of Need (Creature Cafe #7) by Clio Evans – 3.5 Stars. | Resurrection (The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High #1) by Siobhan Davis – 3.5 Stars | Rebellion (The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High #2) by Siobhan Davis – 3.5 Stars.

Little Risk of Fall (Creature Cafe #8) by Clio Evans – 3 Stars | Lovelight Farms (Lovelight #1) by B.K. Borison – 4 Stars. | Rock Addiction (Rock Kiss #1) by Nalini Singh – 4 Stars | The Beast (Wicked Villains #4) by Katee Robert.

Reign (The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High #3) by Siobhan Davis – 3.5 Stars | That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon (Mead Mishaps #1) by Kimberly Lemming. – 4 Stars | Ablaze (The Firecracker Cousins #2) by A.H. Cunningham 3.5 Stars.

So those are all the books I’ve read so far. I’m really happy with how I’m going. I’m hoping that I can get another blackout bingo in the next 2 weeks. I think I can do it for sure. Here is how I’m going with all the prompts. I’ve decided to share mine like this, simply because I am reading a lot more than the bingo sheet.

And there we go. That’s my mid-month check-in for the Indie Accords! Are you participating in this readathon? What have you read? I’m having so much. Not only do I have an excuse to read more indie, but I get to talk about it as well. Let’s Chat!
