For this week, I have only a few auto-buy authors. There are many authors I'll read their books but I may just get them from the library instead of buying.
But below are authors I will auto-buy, always.
1. Veronica Rossi - Hands down Veronica Ross is my favorite author. (Under the Never Sky series and co-author to the Boomerang series) Veronica is the best at writing worlds in a way you can visually see and characters that are extremely well written. Her secondary characters are just as strong as the main characters.
2. Samantha Shannon - Samantha is currently writing The Bone Season series (there will be 7 books, and only 2 are out! Eeek!) and it's a wonderful adult fantasy/dystopian series. I am eagerly awaiting the announcement of book 3 title and cover. She also is writing a fantasy series, which I'm super excited to hear more about!
3. Sarah J. Maas - Of course, Sarah is an auto-buy. Her Throne of Glass series is one of my favorites and she's such a great and fun person. I got the pleasure to meet her last fall during her Heir of Fire Tour.
4. Jodi Meadows - Jodi's book The Orphan Queen has become a favorite of mine (you'll know that if you follow me on Twitter). I love Jodi's humor and can't wait for The Mirror King to release in April along with her co-written book My Lady Jane!
5. A. C. Gaughen - I am a huge fan of her Scarlet (Robin Hood retelling) series! I don't know if there is another series that gives me as many feels as her books!
6. Lissa Price - Lissa wrote the duology Starters and Enders. I LOVED these books. She is still working on her next project but I will auto-buy it once it finally is released!
7. Marissa Meyer - Marissa is a fantastic writer and I've been waiting FOREVER for the release of Winter. Her new series Heartless that releases next fall sounds very good!
New Authors who have become auto-buys!
9. Virginia Boecker - I LOVED The Witch Hunter so much and she now has become an auto-buy author. She is hilarious and can write fantastic secondary characters!
10. Melissa Grey - I just finished listening to the audiobook of The Girl at Midnight and it quickly became a favorite for me this year. I will buy the second book to this series!!!
Who are YOUR auto-buy authors!
Rossi, Maas, and Meyer are the only authors I've read on this list. Meyer is definitely an autobuy for me though! I really need to read Jodi Meadows and Melissa Grey! Your gushing has really made me want to pick up both of their newest books!
