Book Blogger Hop!



The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jennifer at Crazy-for-Books!


This week's question: Tell us about some of your favorite authors and why they are your favorites!

My Answer: This is is an insanely hard question for me to answer. I would say the first author who I adored was J. K. Rowling and I can say without a doubt that if it wasn't for her and Harry Potter I wouldn't be a reader today.

Some of my other favorites include:
  • Sarah Dessen (because I adore her and she rocks)
  • Maria V. Snyder (because fantasy is my favorite)
  • Sarah Maclean (because Regency never gets old)
  • Richelle Mead (because I ♥ vampires)
  • Jane Austen (because she thought of Mr. Darcy)
  • Margaret Mitchell (because Scarlett + Rhett = Frantic page turning)
  • Jennifer Echols (because she makes me believe the story I'm reading)

There are so many other authors that I love and adore, but these are just a few that come to the top of my head. :)

What are some authors you adore?

Hoppin in from the book hop. Goodness me, I absolutely adore Jennifer Echols. I mean, The Boys Next Door was so hilariously funny and I couldn't get enough. Of course I had the 2 in 1 called Endless Summer and it was so wonderful I plan on reading it again. I loved Lori and her devious plans for seducing! Seriously, I laughed so hard I think I cried! I'll be following you to see what you post next!
