Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme where every Tuesday we look at a particular topic for discussion and use various (or more to the point ten) bookish examples to demonstrate that particular topic.  Top Ten Tuesday (created and hosted by  The Broke and Bookish) is now being hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and future week’s topics can be found here.  This week’s topic is:

New-to-Me Authors I Read In 2018

So, I went through my list of books for 2018 and I had a lot of good books and a lot of those books were written by authors I’d previously not read, in fact I think a good number of them were also impressive debuts.  I’ve narrowed it down as best I could – I’m still a little over the limit but here goes:

1. Hazelwood by Melissa Albert
2. The Mermaid and Mrs Hancock by Imogen Hermes Gowar
3. Semiosis by Sue Burke
4. Age of Assassins by RJ Barker
5. Kin by Snorri Kristjansson
6. Master Assassins by Robert V S Redick
7. The Poppy War by R F Kuang
8. The Last Sun (The Tarot Sequence #1) by K.D. Edwards
9. The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker
10. Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse
11. The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell
