I gave this TTT a lot of serious thought. It wasn’t difficult for me to pick only 10, as crazy as that sounds, but rather it was more difficult to think about my working definition of “favorite.” Because, believe it or not, several of the novels written by the authors on the list probably wouldn’t make my all-time favorite books list. But their authors are on this list because their writing has moved me, or inspired me, or captivated me. It is absolutely the best feeling to become so wrapped up in a book you forget all else. These authors have accomplished that for me, so I thank them for it. 🙂
In no particular order…
1. J.K. ROWLING – Harry Potter series, Cormoran Strike novels
2. AGATHA CHRISTIE – Hercule Poirot murder mysteries
3. MAGGIE STIEFVATER – Raven Boys series
4. SUZANNE COLLINS – Underland Chronicles, Hunger Games trilogy
5. MARISSA MEYER – Lunar Chronicles
6. RICHELLE MEAD – Vampire Academy series, Bloodlines series
7. CASSANDRA CLARE – Mortal Instruments series, Infernal Devices trilogy
8. SARAH DESSEN – contemporary romance
9. MAUD HART LOVELACE – Betsy-Tacy series
10. RICK RIORDAN – Percy Jackson series, Kane Chronicles, Heroes of Olympus series
What do you think? Are any of these authors your all-time favorites? Would you read absolutely anything they write?
