It Was Nice Meeting You: Top Ten New-To-Me Authors of 2012


This is a great question from The Broke and The Bookish.  I think it not only allows us to share authors who perhaps need more exposure, but it is combined with the end-of-year theme.  December often seems to be a time of reflection.  So let me share with you my new-to-me authors of 2012, in no particular order:


I read quite a few new authors this year.  I didn’t even realize.  I thought I’d have a difficult time getting to ten, but I actually had to remove a few people.  I read some great new authors this year.  How about you?

  1. Interesting list with some new-to-me authors :-) But a few I've read and loved too, like Brooks Clare & Roth - loved The Divergent series too.

    1. I can't believe I hadn't read any Mansfield until this year.

      Richard Ford is fantastic. I need to read more of his novels.
