Jodi Piccoult, Stephen King, @Jo-Ann, Catherine Ryan Hyde, so many more!
John Grisham..Joyce Maynard..David Bell..Wally Lamb..Have all Pat Conroy’s books and Stephen King…I guess I’ll stop now. ? too many!
Yes, Cathy – Pat Conroy! Though sadly, no more new ones. I’m still devastated…
Me too. I think my favorites are Prince of Tides and Beach Music.
Oh….The Prince of Tides was good.
Both excellent books!

Jodi Piccoult

Ellen Hopkins without a doubt is the first to cross my mind. Second (but not really lol) are P.C. Cast, Kristin Cast, & Gena Showalter (All Oklahoman authors so they have a special place in my heart!). Next is any book written in the fashion of Go Ask Alice (like Lucy in the Sky, Letting Ana Go, Jay’s Journal, the Book of David, etc). They are edited by Beatrice Sparks.
Francine Rivers. I own every book she has ever written, I will read anything she writes. Also, Simone Elkeles.
