Crooked Reads

Hi! I'm Ashley Holstrom, a professional book person. No, really: production at an indie publisher, contributor at Book Riot, reviewer at Foreword Reviews, and occasional Bibliologist at TBR (Tailored Book Recommendations). 

 

These are some of my favorite books, along with the ones recommended in my monthly newsletter, Crooked Reads.
