So yeah..
I thought it was freebie week for top ten tuesday. It’s not.
My bad, yo. I’m sure life will go on.

I love getting book recs from friends, but the best feeling ever, is to stumble upon a book on Amazon that sounds awesome, is self published (or started out self published), and actually ends up being better than the books being pushed by publishing houses! I love finding needles in the haystack! There are so many crappy self published books out there that readers and bloggers have created an unfair stereotype and avoid them like the plague. I get it.. I do. When I started getting more book mail from publishers, I had to cut back on accepting self published book pitches. It is a big risk to take one on because it is a complete crapshoot. BUT… some of these self published books eventually get scooped up by a house because the book is just THAT good! If readers don’t take a chance on them, the world will be missing out on something truly wonderful.
Plus, it just so happens that a lot of traditionally published books stink too!
Below are 10 books that were self published.
They aren’t good “for being self published”.
THEY ARE REALLY FREAKING GOOD, PERIOD!
In fact, a few of these are my absolute favorites of all time.
Give them a chance!
In no particular order…
ENCORE:
I triple dog dare you to go find a random self pub on Amazon and give it a shot! Go discover a gem that you can flaunt all over the internet! (And don’t forget to tell me all about it!)
