does anyone have any good book recommendations? I've picked up reading again after years and I want to keep reading. I've already finished a book called "For Whom the Belle Tolls" (good book highly rec!) And I want to help growing authors! I'm already thinking of getting the Spider Mate Series.

Anyone work in book publishing PR who would be interested in doing an informational interview with a PR student I’m mentoring? She’s a romance reader!

She’s ready to hear the real story on what it’s like to work in the industry as she figures out her career path.

The cover of "When I Trust You" a bisexual romance by A. Lee Welles shows a young man wearing a rumpled yellow shirt being embraced by another man from behind, and their hands clasping together

I have a new, bite-sized, low-stakes, moderately spicy bi-romance between two guys forced to share a dorm room and deal with feelings, not to mention conflicting taste in music. $2 at most online retailers including bookshop dot org bookshop.org/p/books/when... and kobo www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/...

Indie authors & publishers aren't paid immediately, so there's just 9 days left to where any books bought in 2025 will be paid out to them. So I thought I'd do a thread where people could find some books!

Someone give me book recs! In the mood for:

- something smart and gothic
- female characters

- recent (last 5 years)

COVER REVEAL!
The Knowing Doll, releases November 29th 2025.
Cover art by the astounding Moonkipp: vgen.co/moonkipp

#indieauthor #Booksky #WritingCommunity #fantasy #coverreveal

Hey #Romancelandia? I am losing my mind trying to find a book I saw online a month or so ago and now can't relocate. It was about a barista (possibly café owner) spiking the MMC's coffee with something spicy to see if he could take the heat. If you have clues about this book, it's appreciated! TIA!!

As a gym girlie… 😬😬😬

Header text that reads, “Every act of defiance steers you into the person you were always been meant to become.” A 3d mockup of an ereader with Riyati Ripple’s cover is on the left. On the right, the following bullets are listed: Third book in series Dark Fantasy Contemporary & low fantasy with urban fantasy elements Buffy x Persona 4 Vibes 1st Person & Multi PoV Classism & effects of generational poverty Demi, ND fMC Found Family Reincarnations Intricate Elemental Magic Childhood Friends Slow Burn 97k words (~320 pages) Retailers Logos for the itch.io, ko-fi, Campfire, Payhip, Apple Books, Kobo, Smashwords, Google Play Books, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon Kindle are listed. Underneath says "+ more @ riyati.ink/ripple"

There are faded yellow particles and a yellow faded glyph on a black background. On top of the particles and glyph is text that reads: I just needed the damn piece of paper. That’s all that mattered. I could do this, would do this. Yet despite telling myself that more than once in the past few weeks, I still wondered if this had been nothing but a massive mistake. I pulled my jacket tighter around myself. Outside was like a humid swamp hell, but they must’ve had the AC running full blast inside. It worked for the best since I preferred long sleeves, but outside of work, I hadn’t been in an AC’ed environment in weeks now — nearing a month. It brought me back to the question I’d asked myself so many times now: how was I going to do this?   Just as predictably, there was only one answer as well: it didn’t matter; I had no other option.   -Maya On the bottom left, there is a picture of a teenage girl with dark brown hair and light emerald eyes pensively looking to the side. To her right, retailer logos are listed as follows: itch.io, ko-fi, Campfire, Payhip, Apple Books, Smashwords, Google Play Books, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon Kindle. A plus sign with “more @ riyati.ink/ripple” is under the retailer logos.

There are faded yellow particles and a yellow faded glyph on a black background. On top of the particles and glyph is text that reads: When I’d started back in May, I’d been happy that I didn’t have to learn the damn registers and talk to people like Elaine did when she worked checkout. I’d since realized maybe that’d have been better ‘cause being stuck unloading the damn trucks and then stocking shelves’s boring as hell. But ‘cause I ain’t eighteen, couldn’t touch the cash, they said. So I got to do every damn other thing instead — like right then, was stuck breaking down yet another damn box after filling that shelf with canned beans. Didn’t get why there’s seriously nine different flavors of the same brand. Did anyone even buy all this goddamn shit? They must’ve, since I was restocking multiple hours a day, near every damn day of the week for weeks now.  Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Elaine brush past me. We never spoke here. Hell, barely spoke at home either, in all fairness. She went behind the back desk counter, but I couldn’t see what else she did; likely’s going on break since she loved those.   -Jordan On the bottom left, there is a picture of a teenage boy with olive brown hair and light blue eyes pensively looking at the viewer. To his right, retailer logos are listed as follows: itch.io, ko-fi, Campfire, Payhip, Apple Books, Smashwords, Google Play Books, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon Kindle. A plus sign with “more @ riyati.ink/ripple” is under the retailer logos.

There are faded yellow particles and a yellow faded glyph on a black background. On top of the particles and glyph is text that reads: Mom had been an anxious wreck, as bad as when I’d come back from being kidnapped by Asuza. But unlike then, there was no Sia to block emotions; I knew how terrified and exhausted she felt, how she cried when she didn’t think I was awake to hear.   If I’d just died back then, she could’ve moved on, not be put through this again and again.   Instead, all I could do was lie in bed, barely able to go to the bathroom without her trying to help me. Really, it was worse than after I’d been kidnapped because I couldn’t even sit at my desk to work on stuff and had no Sia to talk to, only my thoughts that never stopped anymore. Exercising was definitely off the table with my actually non-existent injuries, something further destroying any sense of normalcy I might’ve had. Mom had requested emergency leave, had groceries delivered in, never left. How much stress had I put on her? How many lives had been destroyed because of me? I’d finally managed to sneak my spell book into bed with me, hidden it to my right, underneath my comforter. But after having it beside me, I lost any drive to actually skim through it despite knowing I needed to figure out what that “anti-magic” thing was. Another sign of disrespect to those that’d died and suffered because of me.  -Kylie On the bottom left, there is a picture of a teenage girl with reddish-brown hair and teal eyes anxiously looking at the viewer. To her right, retailer logos are listed as follows: itch.io, ko-fi, Campfire, Payhip, Apple Books, Smashwords, Google Play Books, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon Kindle. A plus sign with “more @ riyati.ink/ripple” is under the retailer logos.

Hey you. Yes you. Do you want some traumatized teenagers in your life? Well have I got the book for you, fresh to your ereader on Nov 14th and ready for pre-order!
