Each week, I'll bring you a new review along with a chat with the creator, to give them a chance to let you know more about themselves, their creative process, and any upcoming projects. I'll search far and wide, so why don't you join me to find the next book YOU SHOULD BE READING...

Love the concept & Format

I always have trouble finding a good up and coming indie book, and this solves that problem for me. Not only do you get a unbiased recommended book review from different genres, you also get insight from the actual author. I bought the book from episode one and I have to say his review was spot on, it was a great book. Will be tuning in every week for more reviews.

Indie Author interviews ❤️

I really enjoy the style of the podcast- review and interview, all with indie authors. Definitely will continue to listen and will be taking Donovan up on his book recommendations!
