Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish.
To take part, just pick your top ten, and add the link here.
This is going to be really hard, choosing only 10. (Just realized I have only female authors on here, didn't mean to .)
Laini Taylor
Author of the Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy. Her writing really captivated me and drew me into the world she created. I would love to meet her and hopefully understand how she gets inspiration to write what she does.
Sarah J. Maas
Her writing is just so good. The sarcastic humor she gives her characters, for me, brings a level of realism to her characters that not everybody gives. Her main character of the Throne of Glass is not just an assassin, she also likes to get dressed up and be pampered. She likes pretty dresses and sharp knives.
Cassandra Clare
While some people might be getting tired of her writing Shadowhunter books, I think there is still enough room in that world to keep expanding. I love both Shadowhunter series', and I am excited to read more.
Marie Lu
She has a talent for taking a common genre and making it seem like something new. At least for me.
Morgan Rhodes
If you have read Falling Kingdoms, then you'd want to meet her too. Those books are so good, and I am really excited to read the rest of that series.
Jennifer L. Armentrout
I have read almost all of her books, and I love them all. Her characters are funny, and she makes them seem like they could be real people if you took away all the paranormal stuff from them. She also seems like she'd be really fun to talk to.
Leigh Bardugo
It's hard not to want to meet the author of one of your favorite book series ever. Her books had me close to tears and made me want to throw them across the room in the span of a paragraph.
Tahereh Mafi
The writing in her Shatter Me series, was so damn good. Way different than any other book I have read. And her main character had some of the best character development of any character I have read.
Sarah J Maas and JK Rowling were both on my list too!

Thanks, They are great authors.
DeleteSuch an awesome list - I love your choices. Cassie Clare is so sweet and kind, it's a shame so many people are becoming frustrated with the number of Shadowhunter books. I love seeing all the different aspects on the shadowhunter world.

Same here, and I love seeing characters cross over to into the other books. I am really looking forward to reading the next series, and when the Shadowhunter Academy stories are done I am going to read those too.
DeleteJennifer Armentrout made my list too! I love Abbi as well and bet she would be great to meet. Great list!
ReplyDeleteI love the characters that they both create. And they seem like really fun people.
DeleteI love how you chose Maas and Taylor they seem amazing and really great persons. :)

Not to mention that Laini has glorious pink hair. :) I recently saw a really informal interview of Sarah on Jessiethereader's youtube channel, she is so funny.
DeleteGreat choices. JK Rowling also made my list. I suspect she’s going to be on a lot of people’s lists.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Thanks, It's tough to chose only 10. But I'd be happy to meet any of the authors that I read. ^_^
DeleteWe share Taylor and Rowling. I should have added Maas to my list! :)
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT.
It is so hard to pick only 10. I wanted to add Marissa Meyer as well.
