BLAST FROM OUR BOOK PAST!!! Helen’s message was short and sweet but incredibly impactful and I hate that I missed it – it came to me around the time of Book Bash and I was so entrenched with that, that I barely saw anything else. But here it is now, and I knew that I HAD to post this!
Luckily I’m not much of an “email deleter”, so I still have all of these amazing recommendations that deserve all of the love! And lucky for us, we haven’t all already read these (and we KNOW the OG indie days rocked our worlds) so now we have even more to discover (or re-discover).


Jaymei needs our book helps and OMG YESSSSSS!!!!! I totally want a list of books like this. YES YES YES!!! Not the best friend, and not the anticipated “hero” of the story either, but the jerk of the story GETS HER?? YES!!! This is TOTALLY one of my favorite tropes.
