chesilbeach Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Hi, welcome to the forum Can you give us a bit more information about what you're looking for? What sort of genres are you interested in? Who have you enjoyed reading in the past? I would suggest browsing through The Library board, and looking at the particular genre you want to read, and see if you can find new authors from those books. On a wider perspective, you could have a look at bookstores such as Amazon and Waterstone's who both have sections for debut novelists, or search for some of the awards that are given annually for first books or debut novelists.

Books do furnish a room Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Best new novelist I've read this year is Sunjeev Sahota. The novel is called Ours are the Streets and is about home grown terrorism. It's set in Sheffield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
