Top Ten New-to-Me Authors I Read in 2024

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, is the best authors we discovered in 2024. These are all authors I’d like to read more of. I decided only to cover fiction in this list, because I find it’s hard to compare fiction and nonfiction.

Best New to Me Authors:

1. Ordinary Human Failings by Megan Nolan
2. Olga Dies Dreaming by Xochitl Gonzalez
3. Skin & Bones by Renee Watson
4. Sandwich by Catherine Newman
5. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce
6. Women of Good Fortune by Sophie Won
7. Passing by Nella Larsen
8. The Cautious Traveller’s Guide to the Wastelands by Sarah Brooks
9. Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett
10. In This Ravishing World by Nina Schuyler

And here’s a few more I wanted to mention:

1. Kiss Her Once for Me by Allison Cochrun
2. Cascade Failure by L.M. Sagas
3. Birnam Wood by Eleanor Catton
4. Margo’s Got Money Troubles by Rufi Thorpe
