Join in the Top Ten Tuesday fun! 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.
New authors discovered is always difficult to limit to 10, especially when you have discovered many. The following is authors I discovered in 2022. I either read more than 1 book, gave 5 stars or placed them on my auto buy list for future publications.
1. Irma Joubert
I am a bit surprised with myself that I only first read her books in 2022. She is an Afrikaans author living in South Africa. A few of her books has been translated to English. I read three of her books in 2022:
Hallee Bridgeman has quite a few books published, but her military suspense series which released with Revell in 2022 caught my eye and I really enjoyed the series. Each book flowed differently, and the action and romance well written:
3. Kate Angelo
6. Katie Powner
I enjoyed the contemporary stories provided by this new to me author. I enjoy her POV of older characters and then the added POV of a younger generation and how the two generations interacts and impacts each other.
7. Mary Alford
I loved her thrilling suspense and will watch out for any future publications in this genre.
8. Toni Shiloh
I enjoyed the way the character's faith was such in integral part of their journey.
9. Erin Bartels
Her story was strong and emotional and tackled some harder topics.
10. Bethany Turner
I enjoyed this lighter fun contemporary.
Looks as though you discovered some great reads. I remember reading Bethany's first novel and thinking it was such a fun read! Someday I'll read her more recent release, too. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, a few of her books to catch up!
