Top Ten Tuesday: Auto-Buy Authors

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and The Bookish, where we list our top ten according to a topic of the week. Check out future topics here.

Top Ten Authors I Would Auto-Buy From

The first four are basically all of my favourite authors and no matter what I will manage to buy their latest books. 



1. Kate Morton
I'm pretty sure Morton is the first Adult novelist I decided to follow loyally and cannot fault her work. Ever since discovering her I've bought her new releases following that. I'm super excited for her latest work, coming out this year! 
Read: Every single book she's released. It's so hard for me to choose a favourite, although The Shifting Fog has left an impressive impact.

2. Giorgio Faletti
Sadly, Faletti passed away last year but I only found out this year. I was shocked and devastated that one of my favourite authors wouldn't be releasing any more novels. It's funny how he actually never wrote in English, but that his novels were translated. He is an amazing crime/thriller writer and I've loved his work. 
Read: I Am God

3. Philippa Gregory
Gregory is a controversial character in the historical fiction field, at least from what I've heard. However, I am in love with her portrayal of historical periods, especially the Tudor era and more recently the War of the Roses. I've nearly completed the latter series, and will slowly make my way through the Tudor series. 

4. Catherynne M. Valente 
Valente is a newer addition to my favourites list. She writes beautifully and her stories are magical. I auto-buy based on her continuing series including Fairyland and Leningrad Diptych, but I've started to delve into her other works as well. 
Read: Deathless


The next four are authors who've published novels I've really liked and wouldn't mind reading their newer pieces whenever the time comes. 



5. Abigail Haas
I've loved all that I've read from Haas and I'm keeping a close eye on her next release.
Read: Dangerous Girls

6. Michelle Hodkin
Pretty much the same as Abigail Haas, Hodkin is an author I hope comes out with something soon so I can buy it!
Read: The Mara Dyer Trilogy

7. Tim Winton
I support Winton mostly because he's an Australian author. However, I haven't read his latest work yet, despite owning it - oops. 

8. John Green
I buy Green on the basis that I've read almost all his works (that are worth reading), and because he is such a prominent figure in YA.
Read: Will Grayson, Will Grayson
