This week’s Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, is: Authors I’ve Only Read One Book From But NEED To Read More. I’m going to broaden the topic a bit and also include authors I’ve only read one SERIES by. I have a tendency to binge read when I find a new author I like, so it’s a little more difficult to find an author I’ve read only one book from.
1. Megan Abbott.
Book Read: The Fever
This book wasn’t what I was expecting, but it was well written and I enjoyed it. I’d like to give her other books a try.
2. Julie Berry
Book Read: All the Truth that’s in Me
I really loved this book and it’s style. I definitely need more Julie Berry in my life
3. Chris Bohjalian
Book Read: Secrets of Eden
I read this book before I became a super reader and it was so different from anything I’d read before. (*SPOILER ALERT* Unreliable Narrators!! *SPOILER ALERT OVER*) While I didn’t love the story, Bohjalian’s writing was great and I’d like to see what else he can do.
4. Sarah Rees Brennan
Books Read: Unspoken, Untold
I just discovered the Lynburn Legacy earlier this year and fell in love. I love how the characters are written. I need more!
5. John Green
Book Read: The Fault in our Stars
Everybody loves John Green and I’ve only made it through this book.
6. Jenny Han
Book Read: To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before
This story was all kinds of adorable. I’ve heard her others are similarly so.
7. Colleen Hoover
Book Read: Maybe Someday
While I didn’t love Maybe Someday as much as everyone else seems to, but I’d like to try more from Hoover.
8. Kiersten White
Books Read: Mind Games, Perfect Lies
I loved the Mind Games duology so, so much. I definitely need to read more from Kiersten White!
9. Alafair Burke
Book Read: 212
I really enjoyed this book. It was a free ebook when I got it and it’s the third book in a series. I’ve always wanted to go back and read the beginning.
10. Kimberly Derting
Books Read: The Pledge, The Essence, The Offering
While this isn’t my favorite series, I did enjoy it and would like to try more of Derting.
HAVE YOU READ ANY OF THE ABOVE AUTHORS? WHAT AUTHORS DO YOU NEED TO READ MORE FROM?
I adore John Green. I really liked An Abundance of Katherines – it’s pretty nerdy, so that was fun. 🙂
My TTT
All the Boys I’ve Loved before was very nice and touching :). Based on these picks, please try “Making Light of Tragedy” by Jessica Grant. It’s a great collection of short stories. 🙂
Here’s my list. I’ve started doing them on YouTube as an experiment. Like and comment if you get a chance. 🙂 http://youtu.be/I12_Yd-x2tM?list=UUP4Ao6fj3mLXHqOSSxyqh8w
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve added it to my TBR.
Oooh, I need to read ALL THE TRUTH THAT’S IN ME. I also need to finish THE LYNBURN LEGACY books and read some more John Green. If you want to read more Colleen Hoover, I liked SLAMMED, and POINT OF RETREAT a lot. Also I really enjoyed Kimberly Derting’s BODY FINDER series 🙂
Thanks, I’ll add those Hoover books to my TBR. I’ve heard mixed things about the Body Finder series, but I think I’ll be giving it a try!
