Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish.

Each week we will post a new Top Ten list complete with one of our bloggers’ answers. Everyone is welcome to join.  If you can’t come up with ten, don’t worry about it—post as many as you can!

My favorite authors:

1. Jane Austen -- My all time favorite author. I always return to her novels.
2. Neil Gaiman -- I just started reading his work about two years ago and I fell in love. His stories are fantastic.
3. Rick Riordan -- A big favorite with my twins and myself.
4. Sarah Addison Allen -- Her books are a nice comfort, but I still need to read her latest First Frost.
5. Diana Gabaldon -- Loved Outlander, need to read the rest of the series now.
6. George R.R. Martin -- I have been completely sucked into his novels.
7. Bill Willingham -- Love the Fables series. I should branch out to his other works.
8. Mira Grant -- The Newsflesh series was amazing. Now I want to read Parasitology.
9. Veronica Roth -- Really enjoying the Divergent series right now.
10. Philip Pullman -- His Dark Materials was amazing. I need to reread that series soon.
