2019 was a great year for reading! I discovered a number of new and exciting authors. Discovered, as in I read them for the first time. Some of the authors had been published before and some had debut releases. (Some I met in person last year — squee!) You may be familiar with some or all of them, but in case you aren’t, they are all recommended by me. I look forward to more great books to discover from these authors.
Hope you discover a new author too!

The Story Peddler is on my TBR, so I’m glad to see you enjoyed it! All of these artists are new to be except for her, so I look forward to checking out some of their work. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Here’s my TTT post.

Thanks for sharing your TTT!
I have read several of these. My discoveries last year are Amanda Dykes, Susie Finkbeiner, Elizabeth Musser , Janet Ferguson and Stephenia McGee. This year is starting out good with Abigail Wilson, Terri Todd and Kathleen Denly.
I’ve read some of your discoveries too. Here’s to more great authors!
Thanks for giving my novels a try!

Thanks for sharing your TTT!
So many wonderful authors here! Thank you for including me! I was so happy to meet you!!
Loved meeting you as well! Hope to catch up with you again. Perhaps at a book event in Mississippi
Sounds great!
Linda Thompson — The Plum Blooms in Winter
Thank you so very much, both to Beckie and Michelle!! I am very grateful to you both–and I hope you don’t mind that I’ve promoted shamelessly based on your endorsements!! My second novel is due out at the end of 2020. I confess I’ve struggled mightily figuring out how to produce a novel on a reasonable timeline…unlike Plum, where I had all the time I wanted! Hearing from people like you who say that Plum has had an impact is part of what has kept me going. So again, my deepest thanks <3
Wow! Thanks, Linda! I look forward to reading your next installment. 💖
I haven’t heard of any of these authors except Cathy Gohlke and I love her! Thanks for sharing this list. I’ll check out the ones I don’t know!
Hope you find one to love!
