    Yay for new books!! 🥳📚
    Yeah that cover definitely needs to look more beachy if that's the setting

      Right?!
      It was tough to receive because I was so excited about the premise. Now, advanced copies--which I generally say no to unless they sound amazing and I feel I have the freedom to be totally honest--I will be asking for mock covers, or the actual book cover to be sent in an email before I say yes. It's always good to learn from these experiences. Then I can give them feedback right away. Because once I get it, it's almost too late. And sadly, covers do really matter.

      Yes a learning experience for sure! It really does matter.

    I appreciate you’re judging the book by its cover😂. I agree! Also my son and I just had the cologne chat. I agree. It matters.

    I really wish we lived closer, I think we would have so much fun hanging out 🥰. I don't think I have read an Elizabeth Camden yet, but her covers are always so pretty.

      Wouldn't that be awesome?! I would love to move to the States. I wish my family lived out there. Technically I have family from there. Actually, I have a strong connection to the US through the family line, etc. Just no one I know personally.

    Mario Escobar is one of my favorite writers. He is a Christian, and the books I’ve read from him so far do have Christian themes. His writing style is impeccable and flourish. I’m always captured by it :)

    Oh this is so funny. I am one of Oceana’s subscribers and I watched her video of meeting up with you but I never did catch your name or social media info. Then just today I searched for “Christian fiction” and your video came up. I still had no idea it was you from Oceana’s video until halfway through your video. But I’m so glad I found you anyway!
