Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Artsy Reader where each week they post a new top ten list and ask fellow bookish folk to share their lists on that topic.
The topic this week: New-to-Me Authors I Discovered in 2023:
I enjoyed each one of these books by new-to-me authors. I linked my review to each of the titles below. Or if I didn't review I linked to Goodreads.

What new authors did you discover in 2023?
I want to read the mystery about Vera Wong. Glad you found good authors you like.
ReplyDeleteIt was a lot of fun! Sutanto is hilarious.
DeleteI also have Courtney Walsh on my list this week. I look forward to reading more of her books. I hope you continue to enjoy these authors in 2024!

I hope to read more by Courtney Walsh, too! Thank you! You too!
DeleteI've only read Karen White from your list, though not that particular book. I love how everyone's lists are so different. Here's my post for this week: https://portobellobookblog.com/2024/01/30/top-ten-tuesday-30th-january-2024-new-to-me-authors-i-discovered-in-2023-toptentuesday-bookrecommendations-amreading-tuesdaybookblog/
ReplyDeleteI hope to read more by her. I have the first of the Tradd Street series from my library, I just need time to listen to it!
DeleteHa! I discovered Karen White because of you. I am really enjoying her Tradd Street books and hope to check out her contemporary romances. Sutanto won me over with the Aunties, but I think I love Vera more
ReplyDeleteI want to start her Tradd Street series. I have the first one at my library. I just need some time to listen to it! Loved Vera and I'm happy she's written another!
DeleteI love Jesse Sutanto! I am excited to start her 3rd book in the Dial A For Aunties series (a series which I recommend to people all the time!).
ReplyDeleteI got Fourth Wing for Christmas so hopefully a good new to me author for 2024!
Have a great week!

I'll have to read her Aunties books at some point. She's hilarious!
DeleteCity Under One Roof by Iris Yamashita sounds so interesting - Great list!
ReplyDeleteIt was really good! Thank you!
DeleteI also read Rebecca Yarros and Iris Yamashita as new to me. Some other new to me authors would be : SA Crosby, Jodi Taylor, SB Divya, Malka Older, Robert Bailey, CJ Box, and Heather Fawcett.
ReplyDeleteAnne - Books of My Heart
They were both really good, right? I haven't read the others you've mentioned.
DeleteThe only one I've heard of is Rebecca Yarros, though I haven't read any of her books. She certainly is on a lot of lists this week.
ReplyDeleteI imagine so. Fourth Wing was such a widespread hit!
DeleteSo many people found Yarros through Fourth Wing this year. I have loved her books for years. I hope you get a chance to try her others. They are just as fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI would like to read some of her back list at some point. Happy to hear you enjoyed them!
DeleteREkulak is one I want to try.
ReplyDeleteI think you'd like Hidden Pictures, Greg!
DeleteHooray for Rebecca Yarros! I've loved her contemporary romances for years. It's exciting to see her excel at another genre.
ReplyDeleteYes, she exploded with Fourth Wing! I remember seeing you feature her contemporary romances over the years.
DeleteI read Melodie Edwards and Iris Yamoshita for the first time last year, too. Already loved Jesse Sutanto's writing and I liked a couple earlier Rebecca Yarros. I still need to try your other picks.
ReplyDeleteSophia Rose
I really enjoyed Edwards, Yamashita Sutanto and Yarros. I'm looking forward to reading more by them!
DeleteI've read a bunch of books by Karen White, but not the Tradd Street series. I need to do that already! Glad you found White and all these others.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
Great new-to-me authors are so fun to find. I also enjoyed Iris Yamashita's book last year. I need to get my hands on her new one but I might get your thoughts on it first.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed two of your books - Yamashita's book and Vera Wong...Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteI started reading Rebecca Yarros last year too. I enjoy her books for the most part. Haven't heard of the other authors on your list.
ReplyDeleteCourtney Walsh and Linda Castillo are two of my favorite authors! And I loved that Rachel Fordham novel. :D
ReplyDeleteVera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers sounds like so much fun -- I really want to give it a try!
