  3. I usually follow my faves to try to get updates on upcoming releases or things like that. I follow a lot but feel like I need to put in notification alerts for some ultimate fave ones!


    Here's my BBH

    Have a GREAT day!

  4. I love connecting with authors on social media! Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, even LinkedIn. I try to tag them when I talk about their books. When an author shares one of my review, that just makes me giddy.

  6. I follow lots of authors, but not closely anymore, so I'm kind of in the same boat as you I think.
