This week I’m sharing the new-to-me authors that I read in 2020. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

I love reading new-to-me authors and there were many that I discovered and read in 2020. So today I thought I would share some of my favourites for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday. There is a mix of young adult and romance here. And like always these are in no order. 

Also, I want to make a quick note, I knew about most of these author before 2020, it’s just that I never picked a book up from them before. 

Giana Darling: I didn’t know much about Giana until earlier this year when I was looking for some more MC romances to pick up. Then I started The Fallen Men Series and couldn’t stop. I haven’t picked up any of her other books yet and I don’t know when I will. But I will read anything in this series.  

Naima Simone: I didn’t realise how many Naima Simone books I read this year until I started getting this post together. I ended up reading 6 of her books this year including the WAGS series and Sweetest Taboo duo. 

Nalini Singh: I’ve been wanting to read Nalini Singh for a couple of years now, but just never picked it up. However, I took the plunge in 2020 and now I’m 12 books in. Seriously if you want to read some paranormal romances, pick the Psy-Changeling series up and you won’t be disappointed. 

Julia Quinn: I started the Bridgertons series about mid-2020 and I ended up reading the whole series, bar the last book last year. I’m hoping to get to book 8 in the next month. I seriously fell in love with this world, her writing and the characters. I can’t wait to pick up something else from Julia as well. 

Vikki Wakefield: Has been on my radar for a few years now, I just didn’t pick up any of her books and then I read This is How We Change the Ending and it ends up being one of my favourite reads. I can’t wait to read some more from Vikki. And if you want to read some fantastic #LoveOzYA then this is for you. 

Sabrina Jeffries: Sabrina is another author that I have wanted to read for a while, and finally picked up something from her this year – which turned into 6 reads I think. I can’t wait to read more from her. Ely and I are planning to read the first in the School For Heiresses Series for our February Buddy Read.

Sarah MacLean: I couldn’t’ forget about Sarah MacLean. I seriously loved all the books that I read from her last year. I can’t wait to pick up something else for her. But, I just don’t know which series to start with first. 

Roni Loren: I’ve been wanting to read The Ones That Got Away series for some time now and I knew that it was going to be an emotional ride so I put it off for a long time, but I started the series this year and it was fantastic and I can’t wait to read some more. 

Elizabeth Acevedo: Has a name that I heard of for years. And I picked up a good amount of her books in 2020 and loved them all. I adored With Fire On High and Poet X so much. I’m excited for more from her for sure. 

Beverly Jenkins: I didn’t know too much about Beverly Jenkins before I picked up Rebel but now I can’t stop reading. I have read the Le Veq Family series and I’m trying to decide which series to pick up next of hers.I’m just so excited. 

And that is it. I read a lot of new-to-me authors in 2020. And I wish I were able to share them all here, but these are just a few that I love. What new-to-you authors did you read last year? Did we share any that is the same? Let’s chat!
