It's Friday Blog Hop time... stop into Crazy for Books to see a long list of this weekend's book blogs. Leave a comment to let me know you've visited!
This weeks question:
Who is your favorite new-to-you author so far this year?
Hard one! Last year I read some fantastic new-to-me authors. This year I've read lots of series and known-to-me authors, so I am going to pick 2 authors from the 19th Century:
Arthur Conan Doyle... For the first time, I am reading The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (mobi)
- the complete collection for Kindle, for only 99 cents! I've enjoyed it all so far, although taking a short break about half way through this long work! In the same vein of Victorian writing and mysteries, I loved Wilkie Collins' Woman In White
- Amazon have a free version, and this 95 cent version optimized for Kindle. See my previous review.Let me know if you've just hopped in, or if you're a follower, who is your favorite new-to-you author this year? I am always looking out for new books to download!
Hi! Here from the Hop. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI read Sherlock Holmes for the first time recently as well! I'm hopping on by and I'm following now because I'm interested in e-readers and I'm interested to hear what you have to say about the Kindle! I will be back. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm stopping by on the hop. I've read several by Wilkie Collins, and like his novels. My new discovery is David Rhodes...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLily - I am a huge Kindle lover. I've just posted about the new version coming out in a few weeks too!
Hey, just stopping by on the hop. I'm pretty similar to you as last year I encountered many new authors... this year I've mostly been trying to read what my old favourites have produced. Hope you're enjoying the very long Sherlock Holmes. Happy Friday! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm here from the Hop! And I just ordered my NEW Kindle, I can't wait. I have a Kindle 1 and have been waiting for the upgrade. I started reading Sherlock Holmes this year, those are great stories. I also discovered C.S. Harris who writes a good series of historical mysteries.
