Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created here at The Broke and the Bookish. This meme was created because we are particularly fond of lists here at The Broke and the Bookish. We'd love to share our lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!
Each week we will post a new Top Ten list complete with one of our bloggers answers. Everyone is welcome to join. All we ask is that you link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND post a comment on our post with a link to your Top Ten Tuesday post to share with us and all those who are participating. If you don't have a blog, just post your answers as a comment. If you can't come up with ten, don't worry about it---post as many as you can!

Any surprises to you and I should read before mid year?
I've read several of those authors but have quite a few I need to get to myself. I think you'd like Coben's work.
ReplyDeleteI loved the Forgotten Garden and I like all of the Tami Hoag books I've read. If you end up liking her, I recommend you try Lisa Gardner as well.
ReplyDeleteI've only read Carlos Ruiz Zafon, who I loved. I haven't read any of the others.
ReplyDeleteI've read a few Coben which I thought were okay. I read one by Carlos Ruiz Zafon and other people seem to like his work more than I do.
ReplyDeleteI guess we can add your whole list to mine. lol I haven't read any of these and some I haven't even heard of! Thanks for stopping by earlier!

The first list I have read where I haven't read any of them! Though Kate Morton is high on my TBR list! And I really want to try and tackle The Shadow of the Wind this summer!
ReplyDeleteJennifer @ A Librarian's Library--My TTT!
O Kate Morton! YES! I haven't either and need to.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of these either, so we are in the same boat!

I've just read my first Laura Lippman book, and really liked it! I'm not sure that I'd seek out more, just because it's not really a genre I read very much. I have three of Kate Morton's books on my shelves and haven't read any yet -- but I really want to! Interesting list :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read Harlan Coben either, but I do recommend Tami Hoag, Pam Jenoff, and Kate Morton! I have enjoyed all of them. Also consider Laura Childs if you like a nice light cozy mystery.
ReplyDeleteI only know Tami Hoag from your list. We have quite a few books by her on our shelf... but I haven't gotten around to reading them. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
Hey Marce, thanks for stopping by my blog! Let's see, some of these authors I haven't even heard of, but I do like Harlan Coben and I've read "The Forgotten Garden" by Kate Morton. "The Shadow of the Wind" was also really good. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of these authors either, but heard some really good things about S. J. Bolton (from Vicky at Books, Biscuits, and Tea), so I might check Now You See Me out at some point :)
ReplyDeleteHarlan Coben for you being a thriller fan is a must. I really, really enjoy Tami Hoag as well. AND S.J. Bolton is one of my FAVORITE AUTHORS EVER! You simply must read her books soon! Kate Morton is another good one with The House at Riverton :)
ReplyDeleteI have read Harlan Coben and Laura Lippman but don't remember the book titles off the top of my head. I may have read one Tami Hoag?
ReplyDeleteI don't think you can go wrong with Coben and Hoag (especially her early mysteries). I loved Shadow of the Wind and need to get to the next few.
