New-To-Me Authors That I'd Like to Continue Reading!

This week's Tell Me Something Tuesday prompt is: Debut authors/ New to me authors. What books have you read lately by new authors that you want to read more from? I've decided to continue a similar post I've done and feature some authors that I read for the first time so far in 2018 that I want to read more from. Keep in mind, I'm only including authors that already have other work out that I actively want to read, so any  new debut authors that I've read this year and loved (which there have been a lot!) won't be included--I'll be making new posts for those at a later date.

Top Ten Tuesday is weekly book blog meme hosted by the lovely girls over at The Broke and the Bookish.
