Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme that currently resides at The Artsy Reader Girl and features bloggers sharing lists on various book topics. For this week’s Top Ten Tuesday, participants are required to list the debut books of 2023 that they are most excited for. This is a pretty interesting topic to think about, especially after I had such a good year for debuts in 2022. As such, I took some time and managed to pull together a great collection of upcoming, announced 2023 debuts that I am particularly excited for, including a generous honourable mentions section. So let us see what made the cut.
Honourable Mentions:
Judgement Day by Mali Waugh
We’re all Lying by Marie Still
How to Kill a Client by Joanna Jenkins
Top Ten List:
City Under One Roof by Iris Yamashita
Spice Road by Maiya Ibrahim
The Ugly Truth by L. C. North
Promise Boys by Nick Brooks
Seven Faceless Saints by M. K. Lobb
Shanghai Immortal by A. Y. Chao
Immortal Longings by Chloe Gong
Perilous Times by Thomas D. Lee
Lenny Marks Gets Away With Murder by Kerryn Mayne
Godkiller by Hannah Kaner
Well, that’s the end of my latest Top Ten Tuesday. As you can see from the above, there are some epic debuts coming out in the next year, all of which sound pretty damn awesome. It will be interesting to see how many of the above books make my end of 2023 best debut list, especially as I am sure a ton of other great authors will be debuting this year as well. No matter what though, 2023 looks set to be an exceptional year for fiction and I look forward to getting through all the exceptional debuts above when I get the chance.
