This was hosted by Something of the Book who created this tag out of a love for lists. Now Geeky is taking over the tag. There are different topics for us all to be able to take part and you can find the prompts here. There isn’t a specific number of favourites so it’s entirely up to you how many you share.
This week I am going to share some of my favourite books which were debuts. If I love an author’s debut book they often become an auto buy author for me so I’m going to share some older books which were debut books that I loved and have loved every other book by that author since.
1 The Wrath and the Dawn by Renee Ahdieh – I adore everything that Renee writes!
2 Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton – Alwyn’s writing got better in every book and I am so excited for her next book!
3 Cinder by Marissa Meyer – One of my all time favourite series and have read multiple times.
4 Saints and Misfits by S.K. Ali – Love both her books so much and I cannot wait for the sequel!
5 When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon – Excuse me but this book is so damn adorable!
6 Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo – I have read all of her Grishaverse books multiple times! I have also been told I will love Ninth House so I am excited to dive in!
7 An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir – I absolutely adore this series and I am not ready for that last book.
8 Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan – I love every single thing that Riordan writes!
9 Written in the Stars by Aisha Saeed – This book had me ugly crying both times that I read it. I love her books so much!
10 The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty – I bet you thought I wouldn’t mention Daevabad but I OBVIOUSLY have to include it in any and everything I can possibly write because my love for this trilogy knows no bounds!
Great list! I recently started Percy Jackson and realised what I’d been missing out on all these years! Thank you for participating in Friday Favourites, even when I couldn’t this week!

LOL I was like “where is The City of Brass???” And there it was… AT THE END!? HAHA I always put it at the top like “we all know it’s going to be on this list, so here it is!” I also included When Dimple Met Rishi on my list too! I loved that one so much, but Sweetie is actually my favourite book of hers! So far at least 😀
