So hard to pick just 10 since like you said some of my favorite authors have not announced publishing dates for some books yet
I tried to hunt some down on Goodreads and their own blog sites but I know I missed some.
Yeah, I definitely missed some that I know I’ll want to read.
I’ve wanted to read both Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews for a while now. and such a pretty cover on A Tempest at Sea.
Those two authors are in my top 5 favorites of all time, all genres. I highly recommend you try something. That said, the Sherry Thomas series is all kinds of awesome as well.
Nodding enthusiastically to all three that caught your eye. 🙂
The only one on here that I am really familiar with is the Juliette Cross one, although I still have yet to start the series. That will be a plan for 2023 I guess! Hope you all get the books you want!
Thank you Lisa, We have plenty of options for you then, if you want something new.
Oh yeah, so many wonderful authors out there that I haven’t gotten a chance at yet, Lisa.
You have a lot of good reading ahead of you! I hope you each are able to read all the books on your list too.
Thanks Wendy. Since I read 100s of books a year I’m pretty sure I will get to these 10 books. But it was hard to narrow down to just these 10.
From your lips to the authors’ ears. 🙂
Lassiter YES!!!! I cannot WAIT for Lassiter’s book! J.R. Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood series is awesome! I’m so excited to learn more about the 1980s David Lee Roth-style clothing, gold and black hair and Golden Girls-loving angel!
I hope you enjoy it.
I haven’t looked too far into 2023 yet. I am looking forward to the new Kelley Armstrong books and am always eager for more of Briggs’s writing.
I enjoy both of those authors too. Only so much room on a top 10 though. I think I have about 15-20 authors now that are on autobuy.
I think those are favorites for all of us. Some authors haven’t announced things so this list’s only a starting point.
The Krueger, Osman and Dugoni books are on my wishlist, too, Anne!
Ooh, thanks for the heads up on the new Sebastian St. Cyr book, Sophia! Robin, I didn’t know Pierce Brown had another coming out.
You guys helped me add new books to my shelf💜
That’s our job. We like all the good stuff in many genres.
Nice selections! They all look and sound good. 😀
yes and 10 is such a small number. Even 30 is low for how many great books are always releasing.
I am very curious about Bride Wore White, I definitely need to play catch up on the series! I hope you enjoy all of these here. I can’t believe you all were able to limit it to 10 haha
The only reason it was possible to limit it at all is many authors haven’t announced their new releases. 🙂
You made me want to look a little closer at your 2023 choices Anne & Robin
Sophia Rose there are two on your list that are on mine too Lassiter, oh yeah and the Amanda Quick the others I want to look closer at too.
Happy New Year
Happy New Year Debbie! (I moved your link to the top 10 of 2022 instead of the 2023 one.)
