Top Three New To Me Authors Of 2013

Looking through my 2013 reads, I have only given six 5 star reviews this whole year. And only 3 of those 6 are authors that were new to me this year.


Tabitha Suzuma

She has to be number one. I can't believe I only read Forbidden for the first time this year, I've read it twice more since January because it's that good. It makes me want to buy all her books and read them all, but I am also waiting because I know I will just compare every other book to Forbidden. This lady truly is talented, she took such a tough, taboo subject and created something really beautiful with it. I love, love, love this book and author, I can't recommend her or Forbidden enough. For my Forbidden review, go here. 


Melissa Landers

Alienated was one of my top reads of 2013. I really thought I wasn't going to enjoy that, but then ended up absolutely loving it. I'd not read many books where you have an alien as the male love interest, but it really, really worked. I can't wait for the sequel to this and to get my hands on anything else Landers writes. For my Alienated review, go here.

Leila Sales

This Song Will Save Your Life was a book I had put off reading because I didn't think I would really like it that much. I don't know why, maybe it was the way LOVE was spelled out on the cover in pink letters, but I thought it was going to be a gushy teen romance story. It wasn't at all, it was truly incredible, and completely blew me away. That book had me feeling so many emotions; it was brilliant. Will definitely be looking out for more of Leila Sale's books from now on. For my review of This Song Will Save Your Life, go here.




Those are the three new authors that managed to get a 5 star rating from me, and they truly deserved them. All three of those books blew me away, and were ones that I really, really loved. I would definitely recommend them all.
