Top Ten Of My Auto-Buy Authors


Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Broke And The Bookish where each week there is a new topic for a top ten list. 

This week is "Top Ten Of My Auto-Buy Authors" 

1. Nicholas Sparks. His new book is coming out in October and. I. Need. It! 


2. Ann Brashares. I cannot get enough of Ann's writing. I crave it! 


3. Lisa McMann. All her books are intriguing, mysteries with a romantic twist. Need I say more? 


4. Stephanie Perkins. Anna, Lola, Isla, I could read them 10X a day and still LOVE all of them! I need a new book from Stephanie ASAP! 


5. Tracey Garvis Graves. I've read all three (or four...) of Tracey's books. Once you pick up on of her books it's impossible to set down! I'm pretty sure I finished each one of her books around 3 or 4 in the morning. 


6. Jenny Han. Her books are so sweet and so adorable that you can't help but fall in love with all the characters and their stories. I still want Kitty to get her own book!!! 


7. Kiersten White. This is one of my favorite books from last year. It is beautiful (both inside and out!). And of course I loved her Paranormal trilogy so I can't help but pick up her books when I see them! 


8. Rob Thomas. I cannot get enough of Veronica Mars (read Logan Echolls) I need book three in my life! I'd say I'm counting down the days until I can read another one but it's impossible to do so without a release date! 


9. Lauren Oliver. I love her writing style and she is such a fun person, there's no way I could walk into a bookstore and not walk out with her newest release! 


10. And last but not least- Sarah Dessen. The Truth About Forever and Saint Anything are two of my favorite books and she has definitly earned herself a place on my auto-buy list!


Lemme know who your auto-buy authors are or leave me a link to your TTT so I can check out your post! 

Until next time,
Ginger

Top Ten Summer TBR Books For 2015


Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Broke And The Bookish where each week there is a new topic for a top ten list. 

This week is "Top Ten Books On My TBR For Summer 2015" 

I'm currently reading Morgan Matson's "Since You've Been Gone" and I'm LOVING it so I'm really excited to read "Second Chance Summer" in the next couple of weeks. 


Next are two books from Huntley Fitzpatrick, I loved "What I Thought Was True" and I've been dying to read "My Life Next Door" so when I saw she had a sequel (companion novel?) coming out I thought it would be the perfect time to add it to my summer TBR. 


Next up are two Kasie West books, can you tell I love reading contemporaries during the warm months? I adored "On The Fence" and I know I'll love these two just as much! 


Another authors who I just recently 'discovered' (or who I've heard about for AGES but only just picked up a book and fell in love for myself) is Jennifer E. Smith. "The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight" was such a cute, fast read and I'm dying to get my hands on more of her books!


Next up is Jenny Han's new book. Jenny writes the perfect summer/beach reads so of course this one made my list! 


Second to the last book and I can honestly say that before tonight I had never heard of this book. I was randomly browsing Goodreads and stumbled upon it and it looked so good I couldn't help but include it! It sounds like "The DUFF" (the book not the movie) and since I loved "The DUFF" I'm super excited to pick this up! 


And last but certainly not least is a re-read I'll be picking up this summer. Since this book came out in 2007 I've read it almost every summer. It's one of my favorite books and I can't imagine letting the summer go by without picking it up and immersing myself in Ann Brashares world. 



Let me know which books you'll be reading this summer and please link your blogs in the comments! I need to get better about commenting/reading others blogs! 

Until next time, 
Ginger

Top Ten Tuesday


Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by The Broke And The Bookish where each week there is a new topic for a top ten list. 

This week is "My Top Ten Authors I REALLY want to meet" 

1. J.K Rowling (...Duh) 

2. L.J Smith 

3. Cassandra Clare 

4. Veronica Roth

5. Kevin Brooks 

6. Harper Lee 

7. Ann Brashares 

8. Jen Lancaster 

9. Rachel Vincent 

10. Stephanie Perkins 

So going through this and trying to narrow it down wasn't as hard as I thought it would be but looking back I realize I only have one male author on my list*... I don't know if it's because I forgot some or if I just read way more books written by female authors but either way leave me your favorite male authors in the comment below so I can broaden my reading horizon.  

Until next time,
 Ginger

*Edited to add, I have already met Scot Westerfeld and Brandon Sanderson (multiple times) so that made me feel a little better about my list :)
