Conversations With Kav – Celebrating Indie Authors Day + Giveaway

It’s the fourth Sunday of the month and time for a new blog tradition – celebrating our independently published authors! I’m trying to read more indie books and have been thrilled to get all kinds of great recommendations from you guys so I thought it would be fun to set aside one day a month where we can chat about indie books as a way to support these hardworking, often overlooked authors.

• what we’re reading 
• new release alerts 
• recommended authors

Here’s a snapshot of some of the indie books I’ve read this summer.

I’ve had fun sourcing out some great indie suspense and my beloved cozy mysteries. Along with a few Christmas books as part of my participation in Christmas in July .

Now for some indie books that have been languishing on my TBR for way too long. Will August be the month they finally get read?

And the August Independently Published August ReleasesI am looking forward to:
