Top Ten Tuesday #7


Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they will post a new Top Ten list that one of our bloggers over at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join.
This week: Top Ten Authors Who Deserve More Recognition

These authors are probably known in the book blogging world, but not outside of there. And they should be, because their books are awesome! The list is not in any particular order.

1. Veronica Rossi

I absolutely love her Under the Never Sky series!

2. Tahereh Mafi

The Shatter Me series is just amazing. Warner....

3. Susan Ee

Angelfall is probably the best self-published book I've ever read.

4. Michelle Hodkin

The Mara Dyer series is so confusing and mysterious and brilliantly written, love it!

5. Leigh Bardugo

The Grisha series is one of my all time favourites, everything is just perfect.

6. Sarah Maas

Throne of Glass was amazing, I can't wait for Crown of Midnight.

7. Rick Yancey

The 5th Wave did justice to its hype, I loved it. This writer is one of the few who have written a good 'multiple POV' book.

8. Amy Plum

I just read Die for Me and I can't wait to read the rest of her Revenants series. Her descriptions of Paris were just amazing.

9. Alexandra Bracken

The Darkest Minds was a great sci-fi/dystopian book, I'm looking forward to reading more books by this author.

10. Mira Grant

I'm currently reading her (first) book Parasite, it's really good until now.


Put the link to your Top Ten in the comments!

  1. I love all of your picks! No kidding. I know all of them, and yes they're amazing (diggin' Rick Yancey at the moment). Leigh Bardugo's also an amazing author, as well as Amy Plum and Veronica Rossi, since I follow their series :) Great list Eveline~

  2. I have most of these books but haven't had a chance to read them yet, lol. I have Parasite, too, from Netgalley. CanNOT wait to read that one! :D Awesome list!

  3. Great list--I love all of these books! I haven't heard of Mira Grant and Parasite though, so I'll have to check that one out! And I'm assuming you're a Warner fan? I don't know, I'm still an Adam fan, but Tehereh Mafi has definitely written one of the greatest love triangles where people are actually torn (which is a tough thing to do). ~Pam

  9. Niiice! I have Angelfall and The 5th Wave both in my TBR mountain! Angelfall is getting close to its turn in my reading queue and I hope the same for The 5th Wave because I keep reading too many good reviews on it to pass it up for much longer!

    Here's my Tuesday post

    Have a GREAT day!

  17. I've only read Leigh Bardugo's novels (which I heartily love), and I've heard of a few of the others, but have yet to read their books. I definitely want to, though!

  19. The only author whose books I've read is Laini Taylor, and she made my list as well! Such beautiful writing! Quite a few of these have books that are on my wishlist though. I'll have to check their work out. I'm especially interested in Mira Grant's books. I'm glad you're enjoying her book!

  20. Angelfall and Under The Never Sky are both on my TBR list. And I really want to check out Amy Plum's books too, the whole Paris setting sounds fabulous!
    Great list, thanks for stopping by earlier :)

  22. Is Mira Grant the author of the Feed series? The one with zombies and journalism?
    I haven't read anything by Alexandra Bracken but I've heard lots of good things about her.

  24. Great list! Fantastic to see Yancey on there - as awesome as 5th Wave is, his Monstrumologist series is even better.

    I did two this week - check them out at YA/MG contemporary authors and comics creators if you'd like to take a look.

  26. I've heard about a lot of the authors on your list, but I don't think I've read their books. Guess I probably should! Great list :)
