Most-Read Authors of 2024

One of my favorite bookish stats to track is my most-read authors; I just find it really interesting how many authors I do or don’t return to in a given year, and whether those are new-to-me authors or authors I’ve read and loved in the past. This year I had an interesting mix, and my repeat author stats were increased due to my discovery of various romance novellas.

Most-Read Authors of 2025 Predictions – this can get tricky, but I’ll give it a shot.

Olivie Blake – one of my 2025 reading goals is to read more books by Olivie Blake, and so she better be returning to my most-read list next year. (She made the list in 2023 but I didn’t read ANYTHING by her in 2024).

Masters of DeathJanuariesThe Atlas Complex (The Atlas, #3)

Ali Hazelwood – It looks like I’ll only have 2 available books from her in 2025, but you never know.

Not in LoveDeep End

Julie Soto – I need to actually finish Not Another Love Song in 2025, and I’m super excited for her romantasy debut Rose in Chains.

Not Another Love SongRose in Chains (The Evermore Trilogy #1)

Tessa Bailey – I feel like I’ll be in the mood for more from this author in 2025, and luckily, she has a substantial backlist I’ve yet to delve into.

Dream Girl Drama (Big Shots, #3)Chase Me (Broke and Beautiful, #1)
