So do you only read their first book when you try a new author?

I know a lot of authors who reference characters from books of their own when the books are not part of series or otherwise connected. Julia Quinn for example, used Lady Whistledown in Mr. Cavendish, I Presume even though the Bridgerton and Two Dukes of Wyndom series are totally unrelated. And she's had other characters from her early books have cameo appearences in her later books. Their like Easter Eggs to long time fans but don't really affect the story. I know there are other historical authors who do this as well.
