    Faebound was really good and I'm going to try her first series just because of that.

    I definitely agree with you on the hardcover release, I prefer the Hardcover over the Paperbacks. And your knit hoodie sweater is dope! 📚🫡

      @ChocolateCoveredPages  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you dear! It definitely shows that they were unsure about it because most releases come out in hardcover first, then about a year later we see it in paperback. But that’s okay. We’re going to support her regardless. I’m actually a paperback girlie! Hardcovers feel so stiff and unappealing lol. I have to take their clothes off first before I start reading…it’s a hassle 😩

    I've always been a cover girl through and through. Swift River is an anticipated read. The Mayor of Maxwell Street, Ours, A Song for Ricki Wylde are on my shelves and I'm currently reading The American Queen. Loved DeBerry and Grant books....so good and loving the covers. I'm not a fantasy reader, but because of the covers I can't wait to hear your thoughts on City of Stardust and Fathomfolk. Beautiful souvenirs.

      Oooo somebody has been SHOPPING 😂 I’m trying to see if I can squeeze in American Queen before the week is up but I’m already reading a historical fiction so we’ll see. Are you liking it so far?

    I read “The American Queen” and it was so good. Just received “A Love Song for Ricki Wilde” and looking forward to reading it. Never read a Tia Williams book before.
    I’m a cover girl as well! Enjoyed this video! Want those bookmarks!

    • @ChocolateCoveredPages
      @ChocolateCoveredPages  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you! I keep hearing all the good things about American Queen! As soon as I’m done with my current historical fiction I’m ON it. I can’t do the same genre at once lol.

    • @dbooknerd
      @dbooknerd 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I can’t do two different genres at once. 😂 I get it. I have to focus! Well, I can like be working on a self help or spiritual book and then read for pleasure but that’s it. Lol

      Girl we’re hoping Faebound lives up to the hype TOGETHER. Awww I’m surprised you didn’t find any! Maybe it depends on what area you were in. I keep feeling like I should’ve bought way more back. They were so cheap.

    not a tia williams fan I tried back when I read smut and I hated seven days in june and I dnf'd perfect find...the only things I like in 7days was the relationship between the main character and her daughter.

    • @ChocolateCoveredPages
      @ChocolateCoveredPages  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      This is why I like you because girl we be HERE ✌🏾 In 7 days the relationship between the FMC and her daughter was what carried me to the end. I couldn’t stand that miscommunication trope she threw in there. There would be no conflict if a phone call had happened. Yet everyone loves that book lol. I also DNF’d the perfect find…I was so bored.

    Welcome back!😊 I enjoyed the video. Do you reach out to these publishers, or do they reach out to you and send you all those goodies? Looks like you will be busy with all the books you have collected.😅

    • @ChocolateCoveredPages
      @ChocolateCoveredPages  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you! So I signed up for all of these influencer lists and every month I get emails from publishers offering books available for the month and I choose which ones I’m interested in. Sometimes I get a blind mailing if it’s something they think I will like. Or they will hit me up randomly asking if I’m interested in a book. I don’t do too much reaching out unless it’s something i REALLY want. Hit me on ig, I can send you some of the applications that might still be open.

    The positive thing for me when I see my favorite upcoming book gets released in paperback is that I can buy it in a more affordable price. 💴
    Thanks for introducing me to Virginia DeBerry, Donna Grant.

    New subscribers here, hello!. I read a little of Tia Williams new book but I couldn't get into it. I loved Seven Days in June. You mentioned similar books by indie authors. Do you have a list or would you be interested in doing a video on romance with sustenance?

      Hi! Glad you’re here Sara💜 Yes, I could definitely put a video together on that. To get you started off the top of my head I love Kay Shanee’s books. I feel like you can’t go wrong with any of them but my favorites so far are Conflicted Hearts and Last Time Around.
