This week, we've interviewed author Mika C.C. about her romance novel "Fastballs & Flirts". Her fifth book, the novel touches on themes of buried trauma, and has a romance between a girl and her brother's bad-boy best friend. She told us how she got into writing, what the novel is about and some other interesting facts, like for example that she wrote the book in only two months (and that her name is pronounced like Pikachu, without the ‘chu’)!

The Montauk Project, one of the most infamous and bizarre conspiracy theories in American history. This conspiracy theory includes science gone too far, hidden experiments on children, and a military base that some people swear is still active… even though it’s been “closed” for decades. The official story says Camp Hero was just a radar station, nothing more. But believers think it was home to something much bigger, and much darker.

Though poetry is a fantastic genre, we have never featured poetry books in our weekly book recs yet. Today, we're changing that. We've compiled a list of poetry we've read and enjoyed, and we think you might just like it, too. It's a nice mixture of indie poetry booklets and better known, well established poetry books, so you're guaranteed to find one you haven't read yet.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Holleigh Rae, author of "Eagle", the "Force Recon Series" Book One. We asked her where she drew her inspiration from, what the book is about, and what some of the most important themes in her book were, and she told us about her faith as a christian, her pride in being a country girl, her own personal experience with having close ones in the army and how she did research on the types of missions that the Marine Force Recon do.

In a move set to catch both the eye and the imagination of readers, Apollo Imperium has officially launched its new Sleek Covers line: a fresh, cohesive redesign of classic novels that redefines how timeless literature can look on the modern shelf. The Sleek Covers series brings together some of literature’s most enduring works, including The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux, Dracula by Bram Stoker, Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, and more.

Have you ever walked through an airport that just felt… off? Not like, “my flight’s delayed and I’m starving” kind of off, but the kind where you start wondering if maybe, just maybe, something’s hiding underneath your feet. Welcome to Denver International Airport, or as conspiracy theorists lovingly call it, the world’s weirdest airport.

This guide covers the essentials of formatting your book; from paragraph structure to chapter length, font size to chapter names, and even when to use scene break icons. For many of these topics, there will be separate in-depth guides, but for now, let’s get you started on formatting your novel the right way.

This guide will walk you through how to write flirtation, chemistry, and the emotional journey of falling in love, no matter your genre.

We spoke with author Patricia Prior, and interviewed her about her novel "Where Summer Left Us", part two in a three part series––the last part will be published this December. She told us all about herself, her work and just how much of herself she wrote into the characters. We enjoyed the interview very much, and we're sure you, as readers, will too. Thank you to Patricia Prior for entertaining all of our questions!

We sat down for an interview with author Fiona Ballard to speak with her about her novel "Inscription". A novel about family separation, a wedding ring and a fight for an inheritance. We asked Ballard about her research into the topic, how long it took her to finish writing the book, herself, and more.

We interviewed author duo Kate Hyers and J.C. Smith about their mystery slash fantasy novel "The Courtesan's Eye" that they've co-written over the span of five years. We've asked them about their inspiration, important themes and hidden easter eggs––and they've told us about how they met thanks to Dungeons and Dragons, who wrote what and their beginnings as authors.

New week, new book recs. With everything going on in the world right now, sometimes it's more fun to just escape into a different one. We've got some sci-fi and fantasy book recommendations that will help you do just that. Of course, it's good to stay up to date with the things that are happening, but for the moments in between, when your brain is just a bit too saturated with news and information, pick up one of the books on this list. Happy reading.

This week, we have the pleasure of introducing––and interviewing––Maureen Morrissey, author of "Sonder: Janie's Story", among other works. With a story set in 1960's New York, she's exploring the idea of sonder, the feeling you get when thinking about how every single person you see has a life, individual ideas, a house and so on. She told us where she gets her inspiration, where she discovered her love of writing, and, importantly, why and how she wrote her work.

We've got a fun mix for you this week. We're slowly moving through the submissions we've gotten in, and are back to six a week to be able to create better themes. This week has a mix of leadership, personal development slash self help, and women's fiction books (it's a real term, we were as surprised as you are). We've got some good ones with this edition!

This week, we're interviewing Romy Morgan, author of "Fallen Feathers". As the author of a sapphic novel, we asked her questions about her inspiration, writing process, and what the book is about, and she told us about her unique (but very effective) writing style, some themes she used in her book and plenty more. Take a journey with us into the world of her story, and let's get to know the writing and life of Romy Morgan.

With his book on emotional expression and male vulnerability, author Angel Kyle Lynch attempts to bring more awareness to men's emotions. Written for both men and women, Lynch interviewed over 100 people in a mix of both genders to get as broad of a picture as he could, and wrote his book with all of the answers in mind. Without further ado, let's interview author Angel Kyle Lynch about his work, his inspiration, his goals and, ultimately, find out if real men cry, who wipes

This week, we're diving into contemporary romance, women's fiction, second chances and some historical fiction! The theme of these book recs––love after loss, new beginnings––is one that mixes the sweet, the bittersweet and the bitter. So if you feel like crying, smiling, grieving or like falling madly, deeply in love, you're with the right edition of our book recs.

We've had so much fun interviewing author M.J. Parfitt about her book the Onionologist, her answers got us excited to pick up the book right now. Wine making, existential crises and how maintaining friendships and a personal life is so important, The Onionologist is Parfitt's debut––and we cannot be more thrilled that she agreed to an interview. Many thanks for indulging us, we can't wait to see where the Onionologist (and Parfitt herself) will continue to grow.

It's almost September, and we're getting closer and closer to the rainy, dark season. No better time than now to start stocking up on books with the eerie, mysterious vibes that are perfect for this upcoming time of year. Grab one of these recs, a blanket and cozy up for reading while rain beats down on your windows. This week's book recs feature thrillers, mysteries and crime novels (some cozy, some not), all sent in by independent authors!

We sat down with the author of "Before the World Moves On", Nathaniel Terrell, to speak with him about his work and his experiences being an author. A poet, storyteller, author and artist, Terrell explains to us how his work came to be, where he drew his inspiration from and what it means to be a man in midlife in this ever changing world.

This week's theme is Dark Destinies and Hidden Truths. It is a combination of genres, we don't want to just pick one genre each week––it would get repetitive––so we're creating broader, more vibe-based categories. A lot of the recs this week are fantasy or romantasy, but we have some really good different genres too, a mix for everyone. Give the authors some love!

This week, the theme is fantasy! We've included some urban fantasies, some fantasy retellings, and even paranormal fantasy. Because the book-market is getting increasingly filled up by AI "books", we try to only feature real authors in these recs.

If you're tired of regular romance novels and are looking for something with a bit more bite, these will do it for you. Featuring indie authors and traditionally published authors.

This week, we've compiled a list of six portal fantasy book recommendations. I think most people, as kids, have read books to escape their own small world. And why stop in childhood? If there's anything I'd like to do right now in this current state of the world, it'd be to escape to another world. One where things may be bleak, but there is one hero to save it all. A story about hope, instead of another news article about why capitalism and killing babies for land expansion
