From Lab Coats to Storybooks
"I made my Bookstagram to help me post about ARCs (my first one was the Ever King in 2023) and make bookish friends. I absolutely love reading indie books and supporting the indie community."
Meet the bookstagrammer of the month, Kaitlyn! A former Medical Laboratory Scientist, she now resides just outside the bustling city of Charlotte. Kaitlyn’s life changed when she embraced the role of a stay-at-home mom. Growing up, she was an avid reader, spending weekends immersed in books.

Books became her refuge, helping her navigate the anxiety and stress of postpartum life. Among all genres, fantasy holds a special place in Kaitlyn’s heart, offering an escape from reality through its captivating world-building.
