Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018.
It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
This weeks topic is Top Ten New-to-Us Authors We Read In 2018
Paein
1 Mackenzi Lee
The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue
I played with getting this one for a while. I finally got it as an audiobook. It has one of the best narrators I’ve listened to!
2 Deborah Harkness
A Discovery of Witches
I’ve had these book for ages. The TV show prompted me to start reading them!
3 Cinda Williams Chima
The Demon King
I’ve had this a while too. But I picked the first one up when I was working on ‘dustbusting’ my book cases.
4 Kerri Maniscalco
Stalking Jack the Ripper
I saw this all over Instagram and decided to give it a go. I’ve listened to the first two of this series, but the narrator is a little annoying.
5 Sally Green
The Smoke Thieves
This I got as an ARC in a book box. I actually loved this book and I look forward to part 2!

Ms4Tune
I have a very limited number to choose from as I read very little and didn’t leave my comfort zone much but I have found 5.
6 Holly Black
The Cruel Prince
I know it’s shocking that I’ve managed to go this long without reading a Holly Black book but fear not I will be reading as many as I can get my hands on in 2019. Spectacular Author.
7 Kristen Ciccarelli
The Last Namsara
Her debut book blew me away and I must thank Illumicrate for putting it into my hands. Now onto book 2!
8 Jenn Bennett
Night Owls
I didn’t know I needed something this cute and adorable in my life until I found this. Now, whenever I’m feeling a bit low, I think I’ll pick up another Jenn Bennett.
9 Melina Marchetta
Jellicoe Road
Wow did this book hit me hard! This was my second Audiobook and I’m so glad I listened to it, but I will definitely be buying it and reading it again.
10 Alyxandra Harvey
My Love Lies Bleeding / Blood Feud
I had the worst reading slump last year and I needed something short, sweet and easy to read. This series really is awful but for some reason I just can’t stop reading it.
