I'm Issa, AKA, @TheBookishGirlReviews. I started The Bookish Girls Reviews in April of 2021 after my brothers passing. He always encouraged me to follow my dreams, to let nothing and no one stop me. So I did. What started as a fun passion for the authors I love, has now turned into my greatest adventure. I started The Bookish Girls Team and The Bookish Girls Services in 2022 at my one year anniversary! Underestimating myself at every turn, I did not think I would be where I am today, and I have you amazing authors to thank. You saw me and my heart for this community and the true passion I put into supporting your work. "There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibilty for changing them." ~ Denis Waitley Something my brother lived by - He wanted us to change the legacy our father left us and turn it into something more.
I'm Brittany, I work as the TBG Operations Manager and HR, handling all things booking, scheduling, and SO much more but you probably recognize me as @Bookish_Britt! I stumbled across Issa doing one of her wild and crazy dances to promote some Dark Romance reads and immediately hit "follow" and "favorite"! I ended up joining The Bookish Girls Team in early Summer 2022 and it's been SO much fun, but I wanted to do MORE! I joined the admin team in the Fall and have NO regrets! I am OBSESSED with Dark Romance, give me all the Trigger Warnings and as Grey as Morally Grey can get!! I can't say my favorite book quote because I LOVE too many, but this one has stuck with me. "Sometimes, the people we love take a piece of us with them when they leave, and sometimes all that's left behind is the worst." ~ Blood and Bone by Paula Dombrowiak
I'm Mandy, I work as the Service Coordinator/PA handling all things booking and scheduling, but you probably recognize me as @Mandy_BookishPA. I stumbled across Issa doing one of her wild and crazy dances to promote some Dark Romance reads and immediately hit "follow" and "favorite"! I ended up joining The Bookish Girls Team in February 2023 and it's been SO much fun! I was extremely honored to be asked to become a full time content creator and at the beginning of the summer Issa honored me by asking me to join the admin team!! The Bookish Girls have completely changed my life and over the last year I’ve become a full time PA to some amazing authors!! I am OBSESSED with Dark Romance, give me all the Trigger Warnings and as Grey as Morally Grey can get!! I can't say my favorite book quote because I LOVE too many, but one thing I can promise you is… I’ll always be down to ride on Devils Night 😈🖤
I'm Stefanie. I'm the Beta Team Lead, Team/Personnel Manager and PA. I joined The Bookish Girls Team in June 2022. I majorly got into reading in 2016 when I needed the escape and haven't looked back. I've read hundreds of books since then. I not only enjoy reading but also helping indie authors succeed in the writing world. I enjoy not only dark romance but different areas within the romance genre. "You treat me like a real person. Not someone you can push around and control." ~ That's One Big Deck by Mika Rayne
I'm Annette! I am a Social Media Coordinator for The Bookish Girls. I joined TBG in 2022 all because of a TT video I found of this beautiful dancing Queen, The Bookish Girl Reviews. I loved her vibe and passion for books and wanted to step out of my comfort zone and see if this was something for me. Since then, I have found such an amazing group of ladies who love reading as much as I do along with the many great authors I now call my friends. Reading as a kid was never something I enjoyed but growing up, my mother always had a book in her hand. Now, I am just like her, just an updated version and with my Kindle. I love dark bully romance, enemies to lovers, and mafia romance to name a few of my favorite tropes. "If we wait until we're ready, we'll be waiting the rest of our lives." ~ Lemony Snicket
I'm Kassie, also known as Chronicles of a Bookworm! I joined the Bookish Girls in 2022 and have found such an amazing group of teammates and authors in my time on the team. Music and reading are two of my favorite things. They have both been such an outlet for me, but I'm truly grateful for everything that has stemmed from my passion of reading. I am the Graphics and Social Media Coordinator for TBG. My Favorite Book Quote: "Don't be afraid of death; be afraid of an unlived life. You don't have to live forever, you just have to live." ~ Tuck Everlasting

I’m Hollie, I’m one of the Content Creation Managers for The Bookish Girls. I found Issa in a Group about the After Series by Anna Todd. Definitely one of my best decisions because it brought me Issa. And then Issa made The Bookish Girls and I joined and haven’t looked back since. It’s been hands down one of the best experiences Reading and building relationships with authors. Which lead me into Content Creating for so many amazing authors. I get to everyday do one of things I’ve always love read and make genuine relationships with authors and girls that obsess over books the same way I do. I’m obsessed with all things Dark Bully, Enemies to Lovers, Stalker, Mafia, Touch her and well you know morally grey men. Trigger warnings are like a shopping list the more the better. I have so many favorite books and authors to just pick one. But one phrase that forever will immediately get my attention is I Vow You Vow We Vow.. Mrs. Shantel Tessier has a grip on my soul with all her books.
I'm April and I joined The Bookish Girls in May of 2022. I'm currently a Content Creator and Content Creation Manager. I'm obsessed with all things dark and angsty. My favorite book quote is: "You don't slip into depression. It grabs you by the foot like Pennywise and drags you down a deep, dark sewer full of shit. Depression is never your fault. So don't apologize for that." ~ Playing with Fire by LJ Shen
