Debuts I’ve Loved
Today’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is “Debut Novels I Enjoyed.” I’ve read quite a few debuts and thought it would be fun to see which books I’d choose. I’ve decided to focus on new adult or adult novels I’ve read. Here are my top ten choices:

What about you? Which debuts have you enjoyed? Do we have any in common?
Great list! I loved The Bear and the Nightingale, and didn’t even realize that was a debut.
I enjoyed Throne of Glass, but it wasn’t until I got further in the series that I realized how incredibly it was plotted.
Thanks! 😀 Yeah, it’s hard to believe that THE BEAR AND THE NIGHTINGALE is Arden’s debut because of how good it is.
I’ve only read THRONE OF GLASS but I really loved the idea of the story. I’m excited to read the rest of the books. 😀
I didn’t know The Bear and the Nightingale was a debut either, but I love the series! I’ve been meaning to read Dune too but I feel so daunted by the fact that it’s a huge series!
it’s such a fun series, isn’t it?! 😀 As far as DUNE, I’ve only read the first book. It’s my all-time favorite book and I’ve heard things about the rest of the series that makes me afraid they’ll ruin how I feel about DUNE if I read them. DUNE works great as a stand-alone. 😉
