Top Ten New to Me Authors of 2013

1. Neal Shusterman - I read both Unwind and UnWholly this year and they are amazing sci fi books. I can't wait to finish the trilogy with UnSouled.

2. Ruta Sepetys - I can't believe I went so long without reading a book by Sepetys. She is a fantastic writer and I loved both Out of the Easy and Between Shades of Gray.

3. Kasie West - I thought that The Distance Between Us was the cutest book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Now I want to read Pivot Point which is a vastly different concept.

4. Holly Thompson - I'm really not a fan of novels in verse, but The Language Inside was beautifully written.

5. John Corey Whaley - Where Things Come Back has to be my favorite title of the year and the boo was just as good!

6. Amy McNamara - Lovely, Dark and Deep perfectly describes Amy McNamara's debut novel, which was a fascinating look at depression.

7. Elizabeth Wein - This is another author I can't believe I waited this long to read. It was hard to get into Code Name Verity but the second part of the book is excellent.

8. Megan Shepherd - I really enjoyed The Madman's Daughter even though I never read The Island of Dr. Moreau, the classic novel on which this book was based. I'm really excited to see what happens next in the sequel.

9. Kerstin Gier - I've been wait to read Ruby Red for so long and it did not disappoint!

10. Laura Nowlin - If He Had Been With Me was surprisingly good and I'm so glad I picked it up!
