I come here so seldom, it takes me a minute to find the post button. But what lovely conversations go on here. It feels like the place for artists and dreamers.

thank you!!

New book announcement!! I am over the moon to introduce WISHSPUN, a cozy, cottagecore fantasy romance coming 2027. This is truly the book of my heart and I'm having the most wonderful time writing it.

It's here! I'm completely in love with the cover for THE ANTIQUARIAN'S OBJECT OF DESIRE!!

This cozy fantasy romcom features bff history professors, fake hating, magical antiques, and a hero who's blond but I hope you'll love him despite that. It's available to prėorder and add on Goodreads now.

She's so great!

I know I'm never here, I find it too unintuitive for me personally, but I'm popping in to let you know that I'm thinking about starting a private online reader's group for my books. If that's something you'd be interested in, there's a poll in my instagram stories. instagram.com/india.holton 💙

I'm so very glad you enjoyed it!!

Want your room to smell like the fancy parlour in a lady pirate's flying house? Or maybe like the English countryside sparkling with magic? @briarwickcandles.com has made these gorgeous candles inspired by the Dangerous Damsels and Love's Academic series!!! Aaaahhhh!!!

On World Autism Day, I'm thinking in particular about these two, who are so very dear to me. All my books feature neurodiversity, but Daniel and Alice (along with Gabriel in The Geographer's Map to Romance) touched my heart in a way I can never forget.

The next book in the series, The Geographer's Map to Romance, comes out next week! :) It's not a sequel though but a standalone. :)

The illustrated cover of SHIP WRECKED by Olivia Dade, featuring a line drawing of a jagged cliff over a calm sea, all in cerulean blue. Against that background are an embracing man and woman, close to a kiss, both fat and hot. She's in Viking costume, and he's in a dark gray suit, and he's dipping her back slightly for the upcoming kiss.

Autumn aesthetic ... the kind of book to read on a picnic ...

If you like the sound of:

- a dreamy, sunshiney, Anne Shirley coded heroine
- a grumpy Mr Darcy coded hero
- a story with Twister vibes, but about earth magic
- a book Julia Quinn calls "funny" and "cozy"

then you might like The Geographer's Map to Romance. Details below ...

Just got a mail notification that I'm pretty sure means my author copies for The Geographer's Map to Romance are on their way across the ocean. Yay! It's always such an * a m a z i n g * moment to hold the finished book. I can't wait to put her on a shelf with her sisters.

Yay!! :)

Although it's also cozy and heartwarming too, so there's that.

"Weird shit" is basically the tagline for The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels. Can I interest anyone in flying houses and a heroine who is excited that she has a contract on her head?

They say you should write what scares you, but I've always written what brings me joy. Lady pirates in flying houses...professors running after enchanted birds...idiots arguing in the middle of a dangerous magical storm...My hope is that they bring readers some joy too, along with making them think.

Pass it on.

Y’all, I finished reading this book last week and it was SO GOOD! I resented anything that interrupted my reading of it. I need to dive into @indiaholton.bsky.social ‘s other books IMMEDIATELY.
