Top Ten Tuesday is a meme from
The Broke and the Bookish.
The purpose of this meme is to create a list based on weekly prompts.
Just link back to The Broke and the Bookish, then add your name and blog
post to their link widget. That's it!
I think I'm hooked on this meme. I had a lot of fun with it last week, so this could very well be a regular thing for me. In any case, I looked ahead last week to see what this week's topic would be and knew I just had to participate this week, as well.
Top Ten Authors I'd Love to Have at My Thanksgiving Feast
Julie Kagawa, author of The Iron Fey series and the upcoming Blood of Eden series - From the writing, to the tweets, to the signing I attended where she was a participating author, I think Julie would be a blast to sit down for good food and conversation with.
Amy Plum, author of the
Revenants series, including
Die for Me and the upcoming
Until I Die - After going completely bananas over Die for Me, I would love to have dinner with Amy Plum. It would be a lot of fun to talk books, Paris, and Vincent, er, revenants. Yeah, revenants... *blink blink*
Jackson Pearce, author of
As You Wish and the
Fairy Tale Re-Tellings series of books, including
Sisters Red,
Sweetly, and the upcoming
Fathomless - Jackson was great at the Southern Festival of Books, so she would definitely be a nice addition to this ultimate Thanksgiving dinner of awesome.
Kersten Hamilton, author of the
Goblin Wars series, including
Tyger Tyger and the newly released
In the Forests of the Night - How can I not invite an author who has been inspired so much by Irish mythology to the party? It's a no-brainer for me, plus I have so much more gushing to do over
In the Forests of the Night.
Maggie Stiefvater, author of
The Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy, the
Books of Faerie series, and
The Scorpio Races - I laughed so, so much at her signing in Nashville this past summer, plus I love her books. I'd have to be insane not to invite her to the feast.
Ruta Sepetys, author of
Between Shades of Gray - Simply put, Ruta is absolutely awesome. I've met her twice now and she is simply a great person to talk to. Not only that, but she lives not very far away from where I do! With her knowledge and observations on history, she would be a great guest at Thanksgiving.
Victoria Schwab, author of
The Near Witch and upcoming
The Archived - Victoria is another author that I have had the pleasure of meeting twice. She, too, is hilarious and would be another great addition to dinner, plus, have you read
The Near Witch!? Come on! It's amazing!
Rachel Hawkins, author of the
Hex Hall series - Ash2Nash was a blast and I really enjoyed meeting Rachel, who was also a very, very funny lady. There's nothing more fun than good food and laughter, so she is the perfect author to round out the festivities.
