Here I go through a couple of the reasons why I think some people dont read indie, and then some reasons why I think self-publishing stands out.

Im not technically judging books by their covers, just looking at the covers in isolation, so theres definitely no shade thrown at any author or book if I dont like the cover! All these books are slated for release in October 2022 or later. Which are your favourites?
