Last post of 2019!! I personally LOVE supporting smaller authors whether that’s self-pub., small pub., whatever, and every year I post a list of my favorite indie reads (so you should definitely visit my blog for this year’s list). As my last post for 2019, I’m sharing a picture of not only an indie read, Crooked Raven by @talisjones, but ITS MAP. 😍 I loooove maps in books (even if I rarely use them lol). So I have two questions for you: 1) What is an indie book you’d recommend? 2) What’s your favorite book map? 🎆Happy New Year’s Eve!!! xo Pooled Ink P.S. I have an important update that I will be posting in a few minutes on my blog with regards to my plan for 2020. I’m a bookaholic and that won’t change but I’m trying to find a new balance for the new year. 😊📚💕 #bookstagram #crookedraven #oneiroi #talisjones #yafantasy #indiebook #indieauthor #pooledinkreviews

Merry Christmas!! 🎄 As usual I’ve posted my Christmas message on my blog and this year it includes an important update for 2020. Thanks to all you lovely book fans for a fantastic 2019 and I can’t wait to see what new stories 2020 will bring! #bookstagram #chroniclesofnarnia #bookseries #merrychristmas #pooledinkreviews

My review for Kingdom of Ash, the epic finale of the Throne of Glass series by @therealsjmaas, is now up on my blog! It was gut-wrenching yet fiercely victorious. Huzzah! I told you that this month has been all about finishing series I began and this is the last of three that I started when I first opened my book blog in 2015 and have now at last concluded. I’ve always had a soft spot for fantasy and this series blew me away. I can’t wait to see what Maas will write next! Any suggestions for while I wait? #bookstagram #throneofglassseries #queenmaas #fantasy #fae #kingdomofash #pooledinkreviews

Red Rising Trilogy by @piercebrownofficial 🌙 December is my month of series finales! Last week was a paranormal/urban fantasy, this week is science fiction, and next week...you’ll just have to wait! As always my reviews for these books are up on my blog! (Link in bio) I began Red Rising not at all knowing what I was getting into, I just knew that the first page reeled me in so I bought the whole book. I don’t really think there was any way to be prepared for this series haha but somehow I survived! I still love my YA comfort zone but I gotta say this has been one worthwhile foray into adult fiction and has me curious for more so comment with any recommendations you might have! #bookstagram #redrisingtrilogy #piercebrown #pooledinkreviews (P.S. I dipped my fingers in some bloody paint to draw a wolf for the Howlers and yet for some reason it slowly shifted into General Grievous 😆 ah well, whatever, it’s at least still space related right?)

The Dark Gifts trilogy by @drvictoriajames has left me speechless. Epic from start to finish, beautifully complex, featuring villains unflinchingly cruel, and set at a pace so blinding I’m winded. Taking place in an alternate modern day England where those with Skill (sort of like magic) rule the rest, rebellion is brewing but a lot of blood will shed and nightmares will birth before a new dawn can break. If you’re a fan of the TV show The Man in the High Castle (suuuuper fantastic show by the way) then you might like this series. My reviews for all three books can be found on my blog! #bookstagram #darkgiftstrilogy #gildedcage #tarnishedcity #brightruin #vicjames #pooledinkreviews #urbanfantasy
