BBBD Is Expanding — You Can Now Find Me on Instagram #BookBlog #Bookstagram #DarkRomance

 

Books, Bruises & Bad Decisions is officially expanding.

After laying the groundwork here on the blog — defining review standards, content boundaries, and what readers can expect — it made sense to open another space for conversation, visibility, and community.

BBBD is now on Instagram.

This account isn’t about aesthetics for the sake of aesthetics.
It’s about extending what happens here into a more immediate, visual space.

What You’ll See There

The Instagram side of BBBD will focus on:
Dark romance commentary and reader discussions
Blog post highlights and review drops
Series posts like Books That Made Me Question My Sanity
Pre-review conversations and genre observations
Clear, honest framing — without hype culture

It’s meant to complement the blog, not replace it.

What You Won’t See

No forced positivity.
No sugarcoating.
No pretending every book is for every reader.

The same standards apply there as they do here.

Why Instagram

Some conversations work better in shorter form.
Some readers discover blogs through social platforms first.
And some discussions deserve a place where they can evolve in real time.

Instagram allows BBBD to:
Connect with readers more directly
Share thoughts between long-form posts
Reach authors and publishers where they already are

Reviews still begin January 1 here on the blog.
Instagram simply lets the conversation start a little earlier.
