In the spirit of “a rising tide lifts all boats,” this year for Self-Published Authors Appreciation Week, I wanted to give some Self-Published authors a chance to spread some love (while also indulging in a bit of self-promotion, I mean, c’mon, it’s hard out here…)
An Elevator Pitch for Something You Love
Owl Eyes Motel by Barbara Avon
Owl Eyes Motel is a gripping, haunting read that will stay with you long after you finish it. Each chapter tells the story of a different guest who checks into the motel, but as the book unfolds, it becomes clear that there is a common thread running through their experiences. The Owl Eyes Motel is more than just a place to stay; it’s a purgatory of sorts, where the guests are trapped by their own dark secrets, as well as the motel’s murky past.
My Elevator Pitch by Anca Antoci
When a vengeful blood-sucking creature stalks a Transylvanian village, leaving a trail of gruesome murders, Ella, Felix and Radu join forces again, and must face their own darkness to stop the carnage before Transylvania drowns in blood.
Based on Romanian folklore and mythology, the story follows the events of Midsummer Night’s Curse, but can also be read as a standalone. Each book in this series features a new mystery that will be solved by the end of the story, but the dynamics between the characters may change and evolve, so I recommend that you read the books in order.
This is a good fit for readers who love cozy gothic vibes, mystery, folklore, ancient secrets, morally gray characters, a detective with a haunted past, found family and a slow-burn romance.
