10 New-to-Me Authors I Read in 2016

After a few reading challenge filled (and stress filled!) reading years, I wanted 2016 to be as stress and plan free as it could possibly be. And I think it helped! I didn't read as much as other years, but what I did read I enjoyed a lot more. Also, I reread quite a bit, which is something I've really missed doing over the past few years. (I'm currently three books in to my first ever Harry Potter reread, and it's awesome!) Combining lots of rereading and being determined to continue on with series I've already started, I didn't read quite as many new-to-me authors as previous years. But of those new authors, there were quite a few that I really loved and I can't wait to read more of their works. So, I've created a list and these are my 10 favourite new-to-me authors that I read for the first time in 2016.
