Happy Tuesday! Here we are half way through 2026 and I have only read TWO new-to-me authors so far! I have been reading, but evidently only books by favorite authors. I am due to change that quickly. While I haven’t read any of these authors’ books yet, they have been on my radar for a while. I know I have some great reading ahead with my list today. I hope you find some new-to-you authors too!

Have a good week and a good day. Here is my TTT. https://dmhoisington.wordpress.com/2026/07/14/top-ten-tuesday-35-books-i-want-to-read-by-new-to-me-authors/
People have been insisting I read The Huntress for a bit now – one of these days (hopefully soon) I will.
Pre-Rendezvous!
yep!
I really want to try Carrie Cotten too — her books look so engrossing!
I also had quite a bit of Christian fiction on my TTT list this week 🙂
I just added a book by Grace Helena Walz to my TBR though not that particular one.
Thanks for sharing your #TTT
The Brunswick does sound interesting.
I loved Bless Your Heart, Rae Sutton by Susannah B. Lewis. I listened to the audiobook and it was fabulous. I have not read A Weekend on Allyson Island. I also loved The Gratitude Guarantee by Jordan Millsaps, but didn’t know about Mid-Field Meet Cute, I will be adding it to my TBR. Most of the other authors are new to me as well.
Good idea to add books by new-to-me authors you have read. Wish I’d thought of that.
It looks like you’ve got some interesting reads to look forward too.
