Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl.
The rules are simple:
- Each Tuesday, Jana assigns a new topic. Create your own Top Ten list that fits that topic – putting your unique spin on it if you want.
- Everyone is welcome to join but please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own Top Ten Tuesday post.
- Add your name to the Linky widget on that day’s post so that everyone can check out other bloggers’ lists.
- Or if you don’t have a blog, just post your answers as a comment.
This week’s topic is New-to-Me Authors I Discovered in 2022. I’m always pleasantly surprised by how many of the books I read in a year are by authors whose books I’ve never read before. Understandable, yes, if they’re debut authors but sometimes I feel extremely late to the party when it comes to more well-established authors.
Very attentive followers of this blog may notice that a couple of the authors on my list feature in my Backlist Burrow reading challenge.
Links from the titles will take you to my review.
Noel O’Reilly, author of The Darlings of the Asylum
Jess Kidd, author of The Night Ship
Simon Scarrow, author of Death to the Emperor
Kamila Shamsie, author of Best of Friends
Charles Lambert, author of The Bone Flower
John Boyne, author of All the Broken Places
N.E. Solomons, author of The Bone Road
Denzil Meyrick, author of The Death of Remembrance
Tony Birch, author of The White Girl
Ciaran McMenámin, author of The Sunken Road











This week’s topic is Bookish Goals for 2023. As always, I started out with a long list – there are so many tempting reading challenges out there – but in an effort to maintain a degree of reality, I’ve narrowed it down to ten.
