Top Ten Tuesday is a feature hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
This week topic is all time favorite authors. It's pretty hard for me since there's so many authors that I like (basically if I like the book, I like the author). Anyway, I manage to list write down the top ten, and here it is!
1. Rick Riordan
I think you all can expect this. I love the Percy Jackson series, the Heroes of Olympus, the Kane Chronicles and his other books! And, of course, I love his wit and humor, aaand basically everything.
2. Kasie West
Kasie West became my favorite author when I read The Distance Between Us, and so far, it's my favorite contemporary books. I love how she write cute and adorable romance in her books!
3. Marie Lu
I love the Legend trilogy by her, especially the writing style. It's pretty similar with Riordan's--that kind of writing style that made me hard to stop reading because every chapter always end with a cliffhanger.
4. Cassandra Clare
I haven't read TMI yet, but I love The Infernal Devices! Cassie is really good in making an interesting plot, romance, friendship and hot boy.
5. Tahereh Mafi
I actually just read Shatter Me a month ago, but I she's immediately became my favorite author because of her unique writing style! You really should check out her books.
6. J.K. Rowling
I think most of you will write her name too. Harry Potter is my very first favorite book, so Rowling deserve a place in this list. If she didn't write it, I wouldn't like reading as much as I do now.
7. Jennifer E. Smith
I only read two of her books, and even though I only rate it around 3, it's pretty addictive (not sure why, maybe because of her writing style). I really want to read her latest book, The Geography of You and Me.
8. Morgan Matson
I actually only read Second Chance Summer, but that book is really beautiful. Not just it has an great family stories, but also it made me thinking about my family.
9. Rainbow Rowell
I absolutely adore Fangirl! It's pretty unique, since basically it's about us fangirls. And the characters are adorable too!
10. Stephanie Perkins
She is also became my favorite after I read Anna and the French Kiss. I love the way she write it, and of course, the setting!
So that's my top ten! What about you?
Oh, I LOVE Jennifer E Smith and Stephanie Perkins - only stating 10 was really hard!
ReplyDeleteYes, I have many authors that I like too!
DeleteI love J.K. Rowling and Rick Riordan (although I think I put Neil Gaimen in his spot), hmm this was hard. So many I feel like I left off. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of Neil Gaimen's books actually, but I'm hoping soon :)
DeleteGreat list!
ReplyDeleteRick Riordan is probably my all-time favorite, too.
It's really nice to see Kasie West on your list. I've read On The Fence, and adored it. I wan't expecting to be blown away, however, it really surprised me. It's one of my all-time favorite contemporary novels. Something about it....I just fell in love. I agree with Morgan Matson, too. Her books are beautiful. You should read Since You've Been Gone - it was incredible.
I love On The Fence too, even though not as much as The Distance Between Us! And yes, Since You've Been Gone is on my tbr. Glad you love it :)
DeleteWhen I was going through my Goodreads shelves for this I realised I've read quite a few Jennifer E.Smith books, so I guess I'm quite a fan too!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like her too! Personally, I think it's the cover that made me buy her books over and over again (I like matching cover!)
DeleteGreat list :) Stephanie perkins and J.K Rowling are on my list as well. :) I have read two of Jennifer E Smith's books and really liked them to. I just recently read The Geography of you and me and it was so good.

I plan to read it too after I finished my exams. Glad you like it! :)
DeleteI LOVE all your authors on your list! The only one I haven't read anything from yet is Rick Riordan, but I do plan to read some of his books at some point!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED The Distance Between Us!!! SO CUTE!
I really need to read more Rainbow Rowell, I still haven' read E&P and Fangirl.
Wonderful list!
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and commenting!

Stephanie @ My Bookish Itinerary
You HAVE to read Rick Riordan's books! It's really good and addictive (especially because the humor). I haven't read E&P too, but I hope soon! :)
DeleteGreat list! Rick Riordan, JK Rowling, and Cassandra Clare are on my list to! Love them! I really love Kasie West too and I forgot about her :(
ReplyDeleteThe Piviot Point series was awesome and I have been wanting to read The Distance Between Us for awhile. I hear great things.
Awesome list!
-Amanda @ Hearts Reading
I haven't read Pivot Point, but I read some great reviews about it. Glad you like it :D
DeleteGreat list, I couldn't number mine. I haven't read most of these, but both Rick Riordan and JK Rowling were on mine.
ReplyDeleteYes, J.K.Rowling and Rick Riordan's books are the one that made me love reading! They're awesome!
DeleteAbsolutely agree with J.K. Rowling. I have read her Harry Potter series only last year but I still haven't seen anything else like it in complexity, character development, world-building and plot. J.K. Rowling's the only queen! Whee!
ReplyDeleteFaye at The Social Potato
I agree, her books are pretty unique! (though I probably have to reread them since I forgot many things) I guess that's the reason her books became very succesful.
DeleteI'm surprised that I've read from all these authors already. That rarely happens when I read Top Ten Tuesday posts. ;) Here are the authors I totally agree with you for adding here:
ReplyDelete1. RICK RIORDAN, YES! <3 He's one of my all-time favorite authors too. The Percy Jackson series has a very special place in my heart.
2. I've read all of Kasie's published books so far and I've loved all of them. :) Pivot Point's my favorite!
3. I don't think Marie's writing is similar to Rick's, but I adore her as well. The Legend trilogy was gorgeous!
8. I read Second Chance Summer and Amy & Roger's Epic Detour (which you should check out because it was the cutest thing ever) and loved them both!
10. I loved both Anna and Lola! Plus I've met Stephanie in real life and she was just the sweetest. <3
Well, I don't think it ever happens to me when I read Top Ten Tuesday post!
DeleteI haven't read Pivot Point yet, but I hope soon since I heard great things about it. Also, I already have a copy of Amy & Roger's Epic Detour, so it's just a matter of time! Glad you love it :)
Cassandra Clare is one of my favorite authors!! JK Rowling is queen <33 I really enjoy Kasie West's contemporaries. They are so fluffy and warm and adorable ;) Nice list!
ReplyDeleteRachel @ A Perfection Called Books
The Infernal Devices got me fangirling for about 2 months (which rarely happen) after I finished that series, so she deserve a spot in this list!
DeleteAnd yes, Kasie West's contemporaries are my favorite <3
JK Rowling is definitely up there as one of my favourites, and I think she always will be. I *still* need to read something by Kasie West, though I do have a copy of Pivot Point so that's a start. Great list :)
ReplyDeleteEugenia @ Genie In A Book
I haven't read Pivot Point yet, but I heard great things about it! Hope you enjoy it :)
