We’re back with another Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is Indie/Self-Published Books (submitted by Nicole @BookWyrm Knits)
This is a great topic that I don’t recall ever doing before for a TTT and it’s always exciting to have a new topic crop up! 😃 When it comes to indie/self-published books, I tend to read mostly from the romance genre although I have read and enjoyed a few indie/self-pub fantasy, though I think I tend to be pickier when it comes to fantasy. But for today’s list, I’m sharing 10 indie fantasy and romance reads that I really enjoyed and that I think you should read too! 😉 For some of these, I’m recommending the whole series but I’ll only show one of the book covers but I’ll link the covers to my review as well!
The Goddess of Nothing At All by Cat Rector
The Will Darling Adventures by KJ Charles
Ikiri Duology by Phil Williams
The Thirteenth Hour by Trudie Skies
Fate of Eyrinthia Series by Heather Frost
Stay a Spell Series by Juliette Cross
The Rake of Hearts by Emily Windsor
Sing Anyway by Anita Kelly
White Trash Warlock by David R. Slayton
Venators Series by Devri Walls
Have you read any of these indie/self-pub fantasies or romances or are they on your TBR? What are some of your favourite indie/self-published books? I’d love your recommendations!

You have a couple on your list I’m going to have to “click” on GR for to read more about! Haven’t heard of them, but a couple of the titles really intrigue me! 🙂

I should probably keep track of the Indie Published books I read, but I haven’t in the past. I know I have read several but off the top of my head, nope.

I realised that I do read a lot more Indie/Self-pub books than I initially expected! 😂 I thought I’d have just enough to create a list this week but turns out, I have way more and wish I could share them all!
