Okay, so last week was AWESOME! I got to visit the uber-amazing people at Coppell Middle School West (Hi, Ms. Brock!) and honestly I don’t know when I’ve had so much fun.
But something weird happened. Actually, it wasn’t all that weird because, to tell the truth, it’s more like a disturbing trend.
Because, you see, people have a tendency to ask me who MY favorite writers are.
And I have a tendency to choke.
And stammer.
And clam up as if I’ve never read a book in my life!
Why this question leaves me so incredibly intimidated I will NEVER know, but as soon as someone asks I inevitably behave like a total idiot.
So I think it’s probably a good idea for me to write a list of my favorite books-slash-authors. And memorize it. Or maybe get it tattooed on my forearm. Or something else that doesn’t hurt as badly.
So here goes.
–The Percy Jackson books by Rick Riordan
–The Twilight Books by Stephenie Meyers
–anything by Dennis Lehane*
–anything by John Green
–anything by E. Lockhart
–the Bras and Broomsticks books by Sarah Mlynowski
–The Squad books by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
–The Kiki Strike books by Kirsten Miller
–anything by Laurie Halse Anderson
–the Harry Potter books
–anything by Meg Cabot
–anything by Sarah Dessen
–anything by Jennifer Weiner
–Amazing Grace by Megan Shull
–Motherless Brooklyn by Jonathan Lethem*
–Girls’ Poker Night by Jill A. Davis
–Story of a Girl by Sara Zarr
Now the problem about me and this particular list is that I ALWAYS FORGET books and authors that I LOVE.
So I may have to come back to it.
A lot.
But this is a pretty dang good start.
