It's #IndieApril and this is my current read (edited by @arvwriter.bsky.social and Ocean Riley).

It's been on my TBR for too long, and I have a whole load more indie reads to get to after this one.

Tell me - what's your current read? And do you have any favourite indie books?

Once again repeating that audiobooks are an accessibility feature. Saying audiobooks aren't really reading is ableist - people with visual impairments and dyslexia deserve access to books too!

I have once again done the thing where I impulsively bid on too much stuff on a charity auction, and now I am waiting for someone to outbid me on the stuff I am winning so that I can bid on other stuff I saw later that I want more....

GO BID ON STUFF, PLEASE. There is lots of awesome stuff here!
