I never realized I read so many books by new (to me) authors. I guess I have always thought for myself as a series reader. Or at least one that tends to stick to authors I know and like. Some of these will probably just be singles, and some are authors that I will be seeking out more books. None the less, I think most of these new authors I enjoyed. I definitely will be making an effort to read more new authors in the future. Thanks for hosting Jackie. =D
