“I’m Jenny, and I'm from sunny Southern California. I started my Bookstagram a little over two years ago, and it has honestly been one of the best decisions I've made. It's introduced me to an amazing community of readers from all over the world and given me the opportunity to meet some incredible authors and narrators, including LJ Andrews, Leigh Rivers, Avina St. Graves, and Teddy Hamilton.
If there's one trope that will have me immediately adding a book to my TBR, it's age gap! Oh cuz you know, the older the better. 😛
My auto-buy authors include Kate Stewart, Keri Lake, T.L. Swan, Pam Godwin, Jescie Hall, and Leigh Rivers.
My shelves are filled with romantasy, dark romance, and mafia romance. Some of my all-time favorite reads include The Monster Trilogy, Frozen Fate Trilogy, The Ravenhood Series, and honestly, anything Keri Lake writes.”

“Hi Sinners!! I'm Brittany, Atlanta-based mom of two and wife to the most patient book husband alive. I started making book content last year because I had exactly ONE friend in real life who understood my chaotic book brain, and I needed more people who'd let me lose my mind over a fictional man without judgment.
I'll read pretty much any romance but dark romance has my whole entire heart. The darker, messier, and more unhinged, the better. Penelope Douglas, Katelyn Taylor, Leigh Rivers, and Jennifer Hartmann are permanent favorites and I will NEVER shut up about Frozen Fate, Edge of Darkness, Devil's Night, or Legacy of Gods, ask anyone. I'm also a huge audiobook girl, and good duet narration will get me every time.
I came to BookTok looking for book friends, and getting to spend a whole weekend with the ones I actually found?? Kind of insane honestly. Can't wait to meet you all in Boston!!”

My favorite dark romance series is The Hollow Boys by Monty Jay. My favorite dark romance authors are Rina Kent, Monty Jay, Lola King, H.D. Carlton, Brynne Weaver, and Leigh Rivers. I love all types of genres but romance is my favorite. I have been running my social media pages for almost 5 years. Starting posting during covid and haven’t stopped.

I started sharing my love of books through BookTok and Bookstagram to connect with fellow readers and gush about the stories I can’t stop thinking about.

Some of my favorite authors include Catherine Cowles, Rina Kent, Sara Cate, LJ Shen, Brynne Weaver, and Holly Renee. My goal is to share books I genuinely love and hopefully help you find your next five-star read!”

What is up guys, it’s Kenneth from Kennethreads! I have been an influencer for about two years. I started my love of books in romance but then discovered my real passion and niche in Dark Romance. My favorite authors would have to be Saige Parker with her Revenge Duet, C.J. Primer with her book Bite and Willow McQuerry with her Little Sister Series. My favorite genre will be hands down Dark Romance. I got started as an influencer when I started posting reviews for some amazing indie authors and all the wild and amazing books I read and two years later… here I am!”

“I’m Morri Day, I’m a cosplayer, performer, and bookish content creator with a love for fantasy, romantasy, dark romance, morally gray characters, and fictional women with complicated personalities. I got started through cosplay and my theatre background, and somehow turned dressing up as my favorite characters and yelling about books online into a job. My favorites include anything fantasy, spice, drama, and someone a little unhinged 😌🙃.”

“Ahhh what can I say about myself … I’m a mom of 3, wifey, fiery Latina. I have always loved to read and about 4/5 years ago I fell back into it, full throttle - joined the book community and it has been one of the best things that have happened to me. I have had the opportunities to meet some of my favorite authors, meet some of my best friends and connect with babes from this community. I’m a sucker for age gap and taboo, also love my books with spice and smut. My favorite authors are SJ Ryder, QB Tyler, Jack Whitney, Santana Knox, Ruby Medjo, Sara Cate, PH Nix, XOCHITL, Marie Maravilla - Omg I can keep going on and on LOL! But I think this gives you an idea of the books I’m into and the genres I love - always romance though. Being an influencer isn’t something I think I am - I just love to read and share my favorite books, talk about my favorite authors and support them. I’m glad I get the opportunity to do it and sometimes life gets hectic but I’m glad I have my books to help me get lost in a different world and a community who understands”

“Hi I’m Nicki! I’m your friendly, fun-sized, fast-talking dark romance girlie, who loves falling for fictional men covered in red flags. I’ve been reading since childhood, but now the books just have SO much more spice, and I am always looking for my next book boyfriend. As a dabbler in all content, you can find me in a wig, a book rec, or a yapping video as your relatable spicy book bestie. I read books for the vibes and rate everything five stars, carry my kindle around for emotional support but constantly have an audiobook on, and I absolutely adore meeting up with book besties at author events.”

“Hi 👋 I’m Heather, your friendly mood reader!
Dark romance definitely owns the biggest piece of my heart, but I also love me some cowboys, shadow daddies, and the occasional pitch black erotic horror… You know, balance 💅
The LORDS series was my gateway into dark romance and completely changed the game for me! But my true love will forever be the North Shore series by Lola King. And if you know me, you probably know me for my love for Caden King from Beautiful Fiend & Damon Torrance from Kill Switch!
Lola King and M.L. Burns are my two “drop absolutely everything” authors, but some of my other favorites include Leigh Rivers, Harleigh Beck, Monty Jay, Bailey Hannah, B. H. Eastwood, Brynne Weaver, H.D. Carlton, and Penelope Douglas (because Damon, duh)! These authors quite literally write gold🙌
I’m just a girl who loves to scream about books, bad*ss woman & fictional men on the internet! And it all started when one day finishing a book and thought, “I need somewhere to yap about this!!” So I started creating content and never looked back!!”

"Favorite author: please don’t make me choose just one🙈
Favorite book: see above answer!!
A list of a few of my all time favorites are: Trial of the Sun Queen, Fourth Wing, The Bonds That Tie, To Bleed a Crystal Bloom, Avalon Tower, Bewitched… and so many more😅
Favorite Genre: Romantasy is what got me back into reading so it will always hold a special place in my heart, but both contemporary and dark romance have me in a chokehold. I am the ultimate mood reader so it depends what day you catch me, the answer might change!"

“Hi my name is Chelsea and I’m a 34 year old reader from Long Island, NY! I’m a dog and cat mom and I love all animals. I am down to read any book in any genre but I always find my way back to romantasy ♥️ I’m so honored and excited by the community I’ve come to be apart of in the bookish space and I can’t wait for that to continue to grow at Sinners!”

“Hi! I’m Kels. I’m a SAHM that obsesses over dark romance, especially of the gothic and/or dystopian variety. My favorite series is The Frozen Fate Series by Pam Godwin. Honestly, if she writes it, I devour it. Same with Jennifer Hartmann. Actually, Irreversible was my first ever ARC, which ended up being my first ever bookish post when I decided to finally start this bookstagram journey. I have always loved getting lost in books, but when I discovered I could combine two of my favorite things: reading and being creative while also getting to know others that are passionate about it too?! I knew I had to at least give it a try and I will forever be grateful that I did. I quickly saw how incredibly welcoming and uplifting this community can be, which was so appreciated as someone who felt a bit lost after motherhood. I then decided to go ahead and take another step out of my comfort zone by applying to represent for the admirable bookish companies and conventions that I’ve come to love. Supporting them is truly a dream come true that I will never get over… In fact, my first ever bookish event I bought tickets for was Shadows, and here I am an influencer for Sinners. Talk about an emotional full circle moment. (I’m not crying, you are. :,)”
