Jane Austen ❤️
She Grafton
Oops…sue
Emma Martin it is coming up on one year. She succumbed to cancer 12/28/17.
Robert Jordan.
I think I would have preferred if he’d finished out WoT, instead of Sanderson.
Or William Goldman.
Buttercup’s Baby would have been an entertaining read.
Sue Grafton. I’m still sad that she was one book short of completing her series.
Ernest Hemingway❤️
Tony Hillerman
Plillip K Dick
Edgar Allan Poe!!!?
Has to be Charles Dickens and Sir Terry Pratchett (can’t choose one).
James A. Michener
I so agree. Wasn’t he the best?!
Judy Risler Covington He has been one of my favorite authors since I read The Bridges At Toko-ri in high school. Approximately 40 years ago.

I like the book not the author.
Each and every book written carries a part of the author. They include a bit of their life, breath, heartache and soul. The books you like would not exist without their authors.
@Leonie I’m not saying I hate the author. I’m just saying I judge the book by the book not the author. Does that make sense?
Michael Crichton
Shakespeare ,mark Twain,Gabriel Garcia Marquez
@Joel Marquez was final jeopardy yesterday
John Kennedy Toole (A Confederacy of Dunces)?
Willa Cather…
James Clawell
John Steinbeck or Mark Twain
Thomas Kincade
Robert Jordan

Sue Grafton in order to finish the alphabet series. She had just finished Y and passed from cancer. Selfish of me, but I want Kinsey Milhone(protagonist) to find a happy ending in her life. That would only happen with the final-
Z.
David Foster Wallace
Sue Grafton, and Robert Parker.

@Claire , Is that the Hilary Tamer books?
@Linda yes.
Stieg Larsson
Daphne du Maurier
Terry Pratchett
Emily Bronte.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Ian Fleming
Sue Grafton. Seriously the woman got to the second last letter of the alphabet and died. I want to read the series but what if Y is a cliffhanger!!
@Asheleigh it’s not a cliffhanger. Read the series. You will be glad you did.
Poe? <3
Sue Grafton!
Yes
Agatha Christie
Agatha Christie
Penny Vincenzi
Ann Rule
Bukowski…
Ruth Rendell
James D. Doss. I loved all his books featuring Charlie Moon. I really miss those characters.
I would bring back Charles Perrault or Jean de La Fontaine. I love these two authors. Charles Perrault is definitely fantastic as a fairy tale author. Jean de La Fontaine’s fables are beautiful.
Fyodor Dostoevski!
Agatha Christie
There are too many. I’m inclined to say William Shakespeare…who could probably broaden our understanding and portrayal of all humanity EVEN FURTHER through writing more plays.
