New-to-Me Authors I Want To Read in 2022

New-to-Me Authors I Want To Read in 2022

January 25, 2022 Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 8 Comments

This week I’m sharing new to me authors that I want to read in 2022. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

Okay, so I had to change this weeks topic slightly, just because I shared my new-to-me authors I read in 2021 a few weeks ago. So today I’m sharing new-to-me authors that I want to read in 2022. Some of these authors, I already have their books on my tbr. Some I haven’t had the chance to pick up their books yet. But I really want to. 

There are a mix of romance authors and some young adult authors. Some new books and some books that have been on my tbr for a while and I haven’t read yet. As always these are in no order. 

F.T. Lukens: I didn’t realise how many books this author has written until recently, but In Deeper Waters has been on my tbr for a little while now, so I am really excited to pick it up. There is a good chance that I have already read it before this post gets published, but I am super excited for their next book as well. 

Elise Kova: Now I don’t know which of Elise’s books I’m going to read first. I have A Deal with the Elf King and the first few books of the Air Awakens series, so I have a lot of options. Ely my best friend has really enjoyed Elise’s books so that makes me super excited. 

Xiran Jay Zhao: I have been putting off reading Iron Widow for a little while now, but I need to get on it. I think there is a high chance I am going to love it and I just can’t wait. 

Kel Carpenter: Is an author that I actually have quite a few books of now and I haven’t read any of them. It’s my mission to read at least 1 book in the next two months. Don’t know which one I’m going to pick up first, but I will. I think it’s either going to be Fortune Favors the Cruel or Dark Horse by Kel Carpenter and Aurelia Jane. 

Ana Huang: Twisted Love and Twisted Games have caught my eye so many damn times and I haven’t picked them up yet. But gosh will I. I’ve said this before, I’m not a massive fan of contemporary romances without a sub-genre. However, I have just heard some fantastic things about this series. 

Harley Laroux: Is another author that has caught my eye through a few of their books mainly Her Soul to Take and The Dare. But I think I’m going to play it sorta safe and start with Her Soul To Take. It just sounds dark and creepy, but still my thing. 

Lana Pecherczyk: I only discovered Lana late last yet but I haven’t read any books by them yet. I got the first book in the Fae Guardians series, so I think I am going to start with that. But all their books sounds pretty amazing too. So if I like this series I feel like I might binge them all. 

Olivia Wildenstein: I haven’t read a young adult/new adult fantasy in a while and I think this one is going to be fantastic. It sounds like a book I would have adored a few years ago. And I’m starting to get back into paranormal/fantasy. 

Danielle L. Jensen: This is another author that I found about last year, but haven’t read it. I really want to start reading more and more fantasy romance and this seems like a great way to go. I have heard some great things about it and I can’t wait to see it for myself. 

Raven Kennedy: It’s no surprise this is another author that I have found via tiktok and I’m really excited I did. I love any type of retelling or a book based on myths and this author has grabbed me right away with Gild. I’m intrigued and excited. 

And there we go for this weeks Top Ten Tuesday. Those are new-to-me authors that I cannot wait to read in 2022. Have you read any books from these authors? Are you planning to? Let’s Chat!

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
… 

How Race Week Reads Will Work 

On Monday of race week I’ll announce the book I’ll be reading for the week, then throughout the week I’ll be posting stories and my thoughts. And then on Sunday, race day my review and final thoughts will go up.

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
