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 prompt is:
New-to-Me Authors I Discovered in 2024
I actually had quite a few ‘new to me’ authors during last year’s reading and so many good books but the following ten were definitely some of my favourite reads for 2024.
- The September House by Carissa Orlando
- Murder Road by Simone St James
- The Silverblood Promise by James Logan
- We Used To Live Here by Marcus Kliewer
- A Little Trickerie by Rosanna Pike
- Gorse by Sam K Horton
- Bless Your Heart by Lindy Ryan
- Hear Him Calling by Carly Reagon
- Run by Blake Crouch
- The Scholar and the Last Faerie Door by HG Parry
Have you read any of these? What did you think??

Anyway, here are a few of the books I’m looking forward to during the last two months of winter plus a few books from the last month that I haven’t picked up yet but am still hopeful of doing so (I posted this post recently which also highlights some of the latest additions to my bookshelf – so if you don’t see these books below it’s because I’m trying not to duplicate):
Titanchild by Jen Williams
Here One Minute by Alex Lake
The Last One at the Wedding by Jason Rekulak
Daughter of Chaos by AS Webb
The House of Frost and Feathers by Lauren Wiesebron
The Woman in the Wallpaper by Lora Jones

FREEBIE
As we’re approaching the end of the year and fairly soon everyone will be posting their favourite books for 2024 I thought I’d look at some of the books I’ve read during the last few years and give them a little shout out.

The Memory Wood by Sam Lloyd
You Let Me In by Camilla Bruce
Daisy Darker by Alice Feeney
The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward
Come With Me by Ronald Malfi
A Dowry of Blood – ST Gibson
The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell

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 I’ve done the exact opposite of the prompt – which was earliest published books on my TBR. Instead I’ve chosen:

Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix
Beautiful Ugly by Alice Feeney

The Crimson Road by AG Slatter

Destination Titles (titles with name of places in them. These places can be real or fiction!)
Well, I probably made this more difficult than necessary, I could have probably found hundreds of fictional places, but I went down the road of ‘reality’ and this is what I have. Some very good books on here but I’ve taken a few liberties with the titles.
