Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone join as you please. This week’s topic is: Top Ten New To Me Authors That I’ve Read in 2016

When I saw the topic for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday, I got excited for a couple of reasons.
1. I love finding out new authors.
2. I knew that I read quite a few new authors this year.
However, I didn’t realise just how many new to me authors that I had read. It came down to 48 – and that is

It came down to 48 – and that is a hell of a lot and made this week really hard to narrow it down to 10. But I did it, however, I had to break it up. There are no #LoveOZYA authors on this list simply because I want to do a different post for this. Anyway here are  the top ten new to me authors that I read this year, in no particular order. Side note, these are new to me – they might have been published for years, but I have only read them this year. 

Kiersten White: I have wanted to read Kiersten White’s books for a while now, but I am glad that I picked up And I Darken. I loved it, it’s what I love. I am so excited for Now I Rise, plus I am going to have to pick up some of her other books. 

Jennifer Jenkins: I hadn’t heard of this author until a couple of months ago. but as soon as I finished Nameless, I had to read Clanless. 

Josephine Angelini: I’ve been wanting to read the Worldwalker trilogy for quite some time. And I was finally able to this year. I cannot wait to read more. Trail by Fire, Firewalker, Witch’s Pyre. 

Heidi Heilig: The Girl from Everywhere is one of my favourite books of the year. I adored it and I need book 2 – like now.

Leigh Bardugo: Six of Crows was one of those books that I knew I would love before I even read it. And that was totally true. I love Leigh Bardugo’s writing and beautiful setting. 

Courtney Summers: I read 3 Courtney Summer’s books each year and loved them all. They are very hard to read and they will break your heart – but done so well. 

Ruta Sepetys: Salt to the Sea has to be my favourite book this year – it killed me. I cannot wait to read more of her books. Which should I read next? 

Lauren James: I cannot wait to see what else comes from Lauren James because I am 2 books down and loving it. 

Danielle Rollins: I wasn’t in love with Burning, however as time goes on,  I want to find out more. 

Trish Dollar: The Devil You Know took me on a journey and I wanted to read more from Trish Dollar. What do you think I should read next?
