Offering an extensive range of outreach and output, Rutkowska enables thousands of emerging authors to achieve publishing success.

The December list of praiseworthy books by self-publishing authors appears below. The selected publications have been enthusiastically welcomed by independent critics and are already being enjoyed by devotees and newfound readers alike. Some have already become Amazon best sellers in their particular categories, while the very best of the books have won awards within the independent publishing sector. LibraryBub introduces thousands of librarians to bestselling and award-winning books from the independent publishing sector. These books hold immense potential for enhancing the lives of their readers. Author Susan Orlean was shaped by the feeling of freedom that the local library gave her when she was a child. "The library was so bountiful," she recalls. "I loved wandering around the shelves, scanning the spines of the books until something happened to catch my eye. Those trips were dreamy, frictionless interludes that promised I would leave richer than I arrived. It wasn't like going to a store with my mom... in the library, I could have anything I wanted." Librarians enable writers to make that kind of difference to people's lives and LibraryBub CEO Alinka Rutkowska considers it a privilege to support them in that role.

Below is December's selection by category.

"LibraryBub is a great click-and-forget option when it comes to accessing libraries," says medical author Judson Somerville. He adds that most people don't realize "how critical libraries are to increasing the exposure of your book. Far more people go to libraries than go to bookstores. I really appreciate that LibraryBub frees me to work on other areas knowing that the important area of libraries is taken care of for me."

Often LibraryBub enables authors to bring moving personal stories to the attention of a wider audience. Author Trish Titus was overcome by emotion when she saw her book Delilah and Others Like Her among the list of chosen books. "I felt so proud, you brought tears to my eyes," she said. "I didn't want Delilah to be forgotten. It was her death that inspired me to write this book along with sharing the stories of many contributors in order to help comfort pet owners who were and are dealing with the grief of losing a beloved pet. I wanted them to know that they are not alone in this process, and that healing is a slow journey."
