I read so many good books in 2021! Amongst all the favorites, I discovered 5 that were not only my favorite, but their authors became classified as “auto-buy” for me! I feel like that’s kind of a big deal. From a cozy cultural thriller and supernatural mystery to a dystopian, end of the world fantasy, a Rapunzel reimagining, and a paranormal, romantasy rom-com series, here are 5 of my favorite reads from 2021 and their authors who are now on auto-buy for me.

This was the month of mystery, space exploration, and dystopian dilemmas. It felt like a slower reading month, but it really didn’t turn out that way! Check out this complete review and recap of all the books I read in March 2021.
