This week’s theme is new to me authors I read in 2024. This is both a great and horrible theme for me because I am a horrible fan. I say that because I can absolutely pick up a book from an author I've never read, love the book, and then never read anything else they ever write...or at least take years to do so. For instance, I absolutely love The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, and I've heard The Starless Sea is even better (and I've owned the ebook of it since April 6, 2020), but I've never read it. So I'm only going to feature authors I've read more than one book from. Let's go.
The Gilded Ones by Namina Forna. I read this entire series last year, after starting with this one in February.
Butcher and Blackbird introduced me to Brynne Weaver. I also read Leather and Lark and can't wait for Scythe and Sparrow to come out.
Switched by Sarah Ready was the first book in the series I read, but I've read the other three at this point now too.
A Bad Day for Sunshine introduced me to Darynda Jones. I flew through the entire Sunshine series on audiobook.
Verity was my first ever Colleen Hoover book. And sure, I knew who she was, but I hadn't read anything she'd written until this. I also read It Ends With Us last year.
The House in the Cerulean Sea introduced me to TJ Klune. I've also read Somewhere Beyond the Sea and have one of his other books on my TBR.
The Perfect Marriage was my introduction to Jeneva Rose. I've also read Home is Where The Bodies Are.
Their Vicious Games introduced me to Joelle Wellington. I also really enjoyed The Blonde Dies First.
The Only One Left was my introduction to Riley Sager. I've also read Home Before Dark, and have several others on my TBR.
So there we go. Ten authors that were new to me in 2024, that I have read more than one book they wrote. Who are some new to you authors you read last year? Anyone I should add to my list?
If you're stopping by from the linkup, please be sure to drop a link to your post below so I can check out your list too. - Katie
I hope you read Darynda Jones' other series, Charley Davidson and enjoy it as much as you did Sunshine.

I also just started reading Sager! I loved The Only One Left.
ReplyDeleteFourth Wing has been on multiple lists this week!
ReplyDeleteTJ Klune is a fun writer. He purposely tries to stay positive with his themes.
ReplyDeleteRiley Sager is an auto-read author for me. I've read all of his books but one and enjoyed them all. I'm glad you discovered some great new writers in 2024.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
A great looking list. I still need to read Fourth Wing, I loved House In the Cerulean Sea, but still need to read the second one. I would also like to read The Only One Left.
ReplyDeleteHere's to finding more great new authors this year!
Have a great week!
