It's Friday Again!

These Fridays seem to be getting closer and closer, don't they?? So, we're back with more following fun. First up... the Book Blogger Hop hosted by Jennifer at Crazy-For-Books!
Just head on over to her blog to enter your url into her linky thingy.... and answer the weekly question!

This week's question: Tell us about some of your favorite authors and why they are your favorites!
I have to admit that this one is kinda hard to narrow down. But I'll sure try:
1. Libba Bray - I have loved absolutely everything she's written so far. I'm constantly handing her books to unsuspecting teens and they're getting a treat!
2. James Patterson (YA) - I know this is a stock answer, but there really is something about his Maximum Ride series that has me hooked. He's always good for a fun ride (at least his books are. ahem).
3. Scott Westerfeld - It all started with his Uglies series and just keeps growing from there. I think I'd read anything he writes.
4. Richelle Mead - Vampire Academy. Need I say more??
5. Lisi Harrison - She is slowly becoming one of my favorites. I haven't read the Clique series, but everything else has been so much fun! I'm especially loving the Alphas series. She's very clever and I look forward to more of her writing.

  10. Hoppin' in from the blog hop. I absolutely love Scott Westerfeld. I think his ideas are so out there they are brilliant! I recently read a short story by him and was very depressed it was so short. Would have made an excellent book! Read on!! I'll be following to see what you post next!

  20. Stopping by via the hop! I haven't read Libba Bray or Scott Westerfield (for shame, I know), but maybe I'll give them a try. I hear Libba Bray has a new series coming out soon, so maybe I'll start there :)
