Top New-To-Me Favorite Authors I Read For The First Time In 2015
Top Ten Tuesdays are hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, where we make lists of our top ten books (or something else!) based on that week’s prompt. The topics are provided ahead of time and can be found here. Book links bring you to Goodreads or my review.
I decided to go with nine here because I realized (a) my books are organized with three per graphic and I’m picky about keeping things even and (b) I realized my first Kody Keplinger book was in 2014 so I had to eliminate her. Regardless, these nine authors became auto-buys – lots even after just one book! There are a few other where I just BINGED series and/or entire published works by them. All of these authors will easily stay favorites for me (I hope!) into 2016 and beyond. The picture attached to the author name below reflects the first – sometimes only – book I’ve read by them. HERE YA GO FRIENDS:
I’m seeing Marissa Meyer on a lot of lists this week!! That makes me so happy that so many more people discovered The Lunar Chronicles this year bc I LOVE that series!! I also really want to read 99 days and something by Dahlia Adler. Great list!!
Thank you!
Taylor Jenkins Reid also made my list, but I have only read After I Do (which I HIGHLY recommend if you haven’t read it yet). I’m glad that you enjoyed Maybe in Another Life because it’s been on my radar and I just need to get a hold of it!
I own it so I need to get going on that one!
Ah love this list so much. I also had Taylor Jenkins Reid and Marissa Meyer on my list. I just bought a Dahlia Adler book and am pumped to read it. Meant to Be is on my wishlist and I hope I get it for Christmas. Great picks!!
YESSS DAHLIA!
Wow, you went on quite the Marissa Meyer marathon this year! What was it like reading the whole Lunar Chronicles more or less back to back?
It was awesome! It was great because I was able to just keep reading (essentially) after some of the semi-cliffhangers. Each book has a distinct voice for each character.
I can’t say as I recall reading any of the authors on your Top Ten Tuesday post this week, so I have some new to me authors to check out for sure.
Here’s a link to my TTT post for the week: http://captivatedreader.blogspot.com/2015/12/top-ten-tuesday-top-ten-new-to-me.html
Glad to hear it 😀
One of my goals for 2016 is to finally read the Lunar Chronicles! My TTT
Hope you enjoy!!
Ah, Taylor Jenkins Reid and Liza Palmer are amazing adult contemporary writers. I’m eagerly anticipating their next releases! Also, I’m pleased to see Marissa Meyer, Dahlia Adler and Katie Cotugno on here, as I’ve really enjoyed all their novels too 🙂
I’m excited to read more Palmer and TJR! I own some of their other books but just haven’t read yet D:
