Top Ten Tuesday: New to me authors 2014
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they provide a different prompt and book bloggers, like me, share top ten lists. This week’s topic is New to Me Authors in 2014. I’ve read so many wonderful authors for the first time this year but also a ton of amazing debuts. So I decided to split the list in half: debut authors & non-debut authors. [This list is also posted as part of A Month of Favorites]
Guest Post: A Tale of Christmas Food by Beth Albright
Today I’m welcoming Beth Albright back to My Novel Opinion. Beth’s latest novel, Christmas in Dixie, the second installment in her latest series In Dixie, is out now. Just as she did with Wedding Belles, there are some delicious sounding recipes at the end of the book, so I asked if Beth could theme her latest guest post around food, and that is just what she did! And because she is so generous, Beth has included a giveaway…details at the end of “A Tale of Christmas Food”.

Top Ten Tuesday: Most Anticipated 2015 releases
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they provide a different prompt and book bloggers, like me, share top ten lists. This week’s topic is Most Anticipated 2015 releases. My list is strictly non-debuts, I’ll be sharing my top ten 2015 debuts in a few weeks. I also didn’t include Stephen King’s Finders Keepers, the second book in the Mr. Mercedes trilogy, because the cover has not been released yet.
