We’re back with another Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is: Authors I’ve Met.
But I’m going rogue today because being international, I never get to meet authors. The only author I’ve really ever met in real life is Nguyễn Phan Quế Mai, author of the beautiful historical fiction, The Mountains Sing, but that’s because she’s actually a family friend we have known for over a decade. I hope to one day meet more authors in person, especially some of my favourites!
On that note, I’m returning to my alphabet challenge. I’m now on the letter “U” and I have a feeling things are about to get a whole lot tougher now! 😂 I’m not going to make it too hard on myself today, so I won’t be putting any restrictions other than books from my TBR.
Check out the other letters of the alphabet:
A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S T
Under the Mistletoe with You by Lizzie Huxley-Jones
The Undead Fox of Deadwood Forest by Aubrey Hartman
Under Different Stars by Amy A. Bartol
Under Lock & Skeleton Key by Gigi Pandian
Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood
The Unicorn Hunters by Katherine Arden
The Unmapping by Denise S. Robbins
Unromance by Erin Connor
Unsub by Meg Gardiner
Us in Ruins by Rachel Moore
Alright, have “U” read any of these books or are they also on your TBR?
I don’t think I recognize any of these, but some of them seem like titles I may enjoy, so needless to say, this list presents more books I may need to add to the TBR. Hope you get to meet some cool authors someday. 🙂

I’m sorry you don’t have the opportunity to meet authors in general. It never occurred to me that something like this might not be a thing in some countries (for the most part, at least).

Us in Ruins looks intriguing!

I really enjoyed Under One Roof! Us in Ruins is on my TBR too 🙂

I always think “u” is going to be difficult, but with words like “us” and “under” it’s usually okay… Fun selections!

Wow! I’m impressed with your letter U titles. I would suspect that would be a tough one.

Haha love the title of your post! And you just reminded me I have The Unicorn Hunter on my shelf that I still have to read. Under Different Stars is an oldie! I’m sad the author hasn’t published anything in awhile, I might have to reread that series and review it. Hope you get to read these someday!

Under Lock and Skeleton Key was an okay read for me, but I never continued with the series.

I’m impressed that you managed to find 10 books beginning with U. The only one that I’ve read is The Unicorn Hunters which I did enjoy.

I loved THE UNDEAD FOX OF DEADWOOD FOREST. It’s different, but heart-warming.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

I always laugh when I read your titles for these posts! I think you’ll enjoy Unicorn Hunters, and Under One Roof was a cute quick read 🙂

“U” does feel like a harder letter, but you did great with this list! I’m curious about The Unicorn Hunters, too.

Omg how amazing that you have an author for a family friend 🥰🥰 I added that book by her to my TBR when you mentioned it in a previous post. Ive never met any authors either as I don’t know how Id cope thanks to my social anxiety 🙈
I’m impressed that you managed to find so many books with ‘U’ titles. Love the cover of the undead fox one. And The Unicorn Hunters is a definite must read for me soon too. I actually added one of the others to my TBR list this week, any guesses which?
I hope you love all of these whenever you get to them 🥰

I’ve read Us In Ruins, this was fun although I felt the plot was a bit all over the place lol.
Sorry you don’t get to meet authors. I was lucky to see Katherine Arden recently and got a signed copy of The Unicorn Hunters.
Great post, Dini 😊
