Have you heard of the author Colleen Hoover?
She began her writing career as a self-published author on Amazon in 2012. Her debut novel Slammed made it onto the New York Times best seller list -unheard of for a self-published debut novel.
Despite her success, I hadn’t heard of her until this fall when patrons started requesting her books. Why did she fly under my radar? She has had a very unusual assent to fame. Her fans are devoted and share news and video clips about her on Facebook, TikTok and other social media sites daily.
Did I fulfill the requests and purchase her books for the library? You bet — and they have been flying off the shelves. We have her newest book, It Starts with Us, the long-awaited sequel to It Ends with Us. If you are looking for a new author to read, check her books out – if there are any left on the shelves.
