New-To-Me Authors and Books I Want To Try in 2023

New-To-Me Authors and Books I Want To Try in 2023

Dec 22, 2022


As we bring 2022 to a close, I wanted to talk about some of the books I want to try from new-to-me authors in 2023. I’ve spoken a lot about all the new-to-me authors I read this year, but there are so many more that I want to try already, so let’s get a list together. 

These are the books from new-to-me authors that I would like to try and read next year. There is a mix of romance genres here. A few are from authors that are more on the popular side as well as a few I haven’t heard much about. And that makes me so excited. I love trying new authors, especially if I enjoy them and read more from them. 

So let’s get into it. These are the books from new-to-me authors that I want to read in 2023. And as always these are in no order. 

Midnight Kisses by Jeanine Bennedict | The High Mountain Court (The Five Crowns of Okrith #1) by A.K. Mulford | Mile High (Windy City #1) by Liz Tomforde. | The Nanny by Lana Ferguson.

Black Sheep by Brynne Weaver and Alexa Harlowe | The Accidental Pinup by Danielle Jackson. | The Redeemable (The Redeemable #1) by Grace McGinty. | Things We Never Got Over (Knockemout #1) by Lucy Score.

The Stopover (The Miles High Club #1) by T.L. Swan | Promises and Pomegranates (Monsters & Muses #1) by Sav R. Miller. | Hooked (Never After #1) by Emily McIntire. | Haunting Adeline (Cat and Mouse Duet #1) by H.D. Carlton. 

And there we go. Those are the books from new-to-me authors that I want to read next year. Some of these books have been on my tbr for a little while and I hope that I can get to them next year and some I’ve just discovered.

Have you read any of these? What did you think of them? What books do you want to read next year from new-to-you authors? So, Let’s chat!  

 

New-To-Me Authors I Read in 2022 And Want to Read More Of

New-To-Me Authors I Read in 2022 And Want to Read More Of

Dec 15, 2022

I’ve shared a lot about new-to-me authors this year. But today I wanted to share the books from new-to-me authors I read in 2022 that I want to read more of. From authors that I love, and some that I want to give another try. 

I love reading books from authors I haven’t read before. But what I love more is finding new-to-me authors that I love. Sometimes it takes me a few books before I love the author’s works and they become a favourite. I always like to give authors a few tries before I decide if I won’t read them again.

But today is the focus on the authors I do want to read some more books from. So let’s get into it. These are the books from authors that I read for the first time this year that I want to read. Some of these authors I’ve read one book from, and some I’ve already read a few. And like always these are in no particular order.  

Focused (Ward Sisters #1) by Karla Sorensen | Flawless (Chestnut Springs #1) by Elsie Silver. | Sea of Roses (A Pirate Romance Duology #1) by Opal Reyne. | Intoxicating (Elite Protection Services #1) by Onley James.

Ruthless Demon King (Wrath & Rain #1) by Nikki St. Crowe| Cruel Intentions (Rydeville Elite #1) by Siobhan Davis. | Stalked by the Kraken (Monstrous Matches #1) by Lillian Lark. | Reject Me (Immortal Vices and Virtues #1) by Kel Carpenter and Aurelia Jane.
 
Astrid Parker Doesn’t Fail (Bright Falls #2) by Ashley Herring Blake. | So This Is Ever After by F.T. Lukens | Spoiler Alert (Spoiler Alert #1) by Olivia Dade.
 
And there we go. Those are the books from new-to-me authors I picked this year that I want to read. Have you read any of these books? What did you think of them? Have you read anything else from these authors? Let’s chat! 
Holiday Romance Books On My TBR

Holiday Romance Books On My TBR

Dec 11, 2022

Okay, so I normally don’t read holiday and Christmas romances. But this year I am really feeling them. So today I thought I would share holiday romances on my tbr. From new to me authors, to books from authors I’ve enjoyed before. 

This isn’t just Christmas romance, it’s also general holiday romances as well. While I find  Christmas romances hard to read at times as I live in Australia and the differences in weather, I still like to read them. But I also enjoy romances set around that time of the year. 

So let’s get right into it. Here are the holiday romances on my tbr. I won’t be able to read most of them this year, but I hope to eventually. And as always these are in no order. 

How the Dukes Stole Christmas by Tessa Dare, Sarah MacLean, Sophie Jordan and Joanna Shupe. | Duke, Actually (A Princess for Christmas #2) by Jenny Holiday.  | Kiss Her Once for Me by Alison Cochrun. | How to Excavate a Heart by Jake Maia Arlow.

How the Grump Saved Christmas by Claire Kingsley | The Mistletoe Bet by Maren Moore. | From Cocktails to Sleigh Bells by Wren K. Morris | Merry Inkmas by Talia Hibbert.

The Geek Who Saved Christmas by Annabeth Albert. | A Singh Family Christmas by Nisha Sharma. | 

And there we go. Those are the holiday romances on my tbr. Have you read any of these yet? What did you think of them? Are you planning on reading them? What are some holiday romances that you have loved? 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.
…

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!
