Top Ten Tuesday January 15: New-to-Me Authors I Read In 2018

Happy Tuesday everyone!!

It has been a minute and a half since I did a Top Ten Tuesday, which you can learn more about here! Today the topic is New-to-Me Authors I Read In 2018. I think almost every author I read in 2018 was new, and I found some new favourites honestly.

---

Celeste Ng: I read both of Celeste Ng’s books in 2018. Do you know how rare it is for me to actually read every book by an author????

Kazuo Ishiguro: I read Never Let Me Go early 2018, and it was one of the best I read. It was seriously amazing, and I want to read all his other books.

Ta-Nehisi Coates: I buddy read Between the World and Me with Rebecca earlier this year, and I loved it so much. I definitely want to read all his other books.

Laini Taylor: Strange the Dreamer ended up being one of the biggest surprises of 2018, and I can’t wait to read Muse of Nightmares.

Taylor Jenkins Reid: we all know that The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo was one of the best books I read last year. I’ve heard a ton of good things about Reid’s other books too.

Haruki Murakami: Murakami is a really talented writer, and I want to read most of his books.

Sylvia Plath: The Bell Jar spoke to me in a way that most books haven’t. It was so good.

Min Jin Lee: Pachinko is maybe one of the best books I’ve read in a while. Seriously just such a beautiful book.

Neal Shusterman: okay guys, I get the hype. Shusterman definitely deserves it.

Lisa See: ditto for Lisa See. Shanghai Girls is one of the most heart-wrenching books I’ve ever read.
