Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, featuring a different top 10 theme each week. This week’s topic is Bookish Discoveries I Made in 2025, with the prompt New-to-you authors you discovered, new genres you learned you like, new bookish resources you found, friends you made, local bookshops you found, a book club you joined, etc.

I always enjoy taking a moment to reflect on and appreciate new-to-me authors whose books I experienced for the first time… and there were quite a few in 2025!

Here are ten new-to-me authors I read in 2025 — all of whom are authors whose books I’ll be looking for in the future as well:

1. Audrey Bellezza and Emily Harding (co-authors)
2. Freya Marske
3. Mike Gayle
4. Richard Osman
5. Liz Moore
6. Kirsty Greenwood
7. Janelle Brown
8. Ariel Lawhon
9. Rachel Koller Croft
10. Kiersten White

Do you have other books by these authors to recommend?
