Top Ten Tuesday: Nice to Meet you in 2016!

Top Ten is an original feature/weekly meme created here at
The Broke and the Bookish that features a great bookish top ten every week.



These were my favorite new authors in 2016. I love discovering new authors and this was a good year for me.

1. Kerri Mannsicalo- Jack the Ripper was so awesome. I love historical fiction but I am picky over it and this book hit all the dos and missed all the donts. Can't wait for more!
Stalking Jack the Ripper (Stalking Jack the Ripper, #1)

2. Eileen Cook- With Malice was one of my top reads of 2016. Loved it. I almost passed this book up until a blogger friend said it was awesome!

3. Lindsay Ribar- Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies was not even on my radar, didn't know about it until a blogger friend again mentioned books with great names. I picked it up and loved every moment of it.

4. Sarah Jude- May Queen Murders had me from hello I see you on Goodreads. I loved the sound of this read from the beginning. I read it I mean I devoured it and yup it was awesome.

5. Erin L. Schneider- I am not all about contemporary read but this cover and title stood out to me. I read Summer of Sloane and just loved every moment of the read.

6. April Genevieve Tucholke - loved Winky Poppy Midnight so so much. Its hard for me to find great magical realism and this one was a great one.

7. Goldy Moldavsky - Kill the Boy Band just wowed me. It was a very dark humor read but I just ate it up. It had me so into the read and I just didn't want it to end.

8. Eric Lindstrom- I really didn't know if I would enjoy Not if I See You First, but I did  I loved it and I recommend it to everyone for a great contemporary feel good read.

9. E.K. Johnston - Another book with a difficult subject but the subject and the story was well handled and well told. great book 

Exit, Pursued by a Bear

10. Kurt Dinan - I love a great funny laughing book with some depth. Don't get Caught was this book for me. It was so fun.

  1. I really want to read "Stalking Jack the Ripper" but otherwise your list was unfamiliar to me. Sadly I don't think I've discovered that many authors this year... Maybe a couple of debuts. But I'm terrible and tend to stick with my favourites. Going to make that one of my goals for next year, to branch out a bit more!

    1. I am the total opposite. I go for new authors and new books most of the time and tend to leave the already loved authors alone. I just forget to see what is out there by them.

    1. I only read With Malice because you sang its praises. I am so glad I did. It was so wonderful. I need to find some more from this author and get read up on them.
