Author Block Party: If you could gather a handful of authors to hang out with, who would you choose?
This is definitely not a hard question for me. Instead it is just a combo of my favorite authors that I love and some influential ones mixed in too. In terms of favorite right now that I love to just meet, I am going to go with Sarah Dessen, Chuck Palahniuk, Richelle Mead, JK Rowling, and John Green. It is definitely quite a strange mix, from contemporary YA to paranomal fantasy, to even an adult fiction author as well.
Although I love all of those authors right now, there are definitely classic authors that I worship. I think for that list, I would want to hang out with Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and George Orwell.I must say that having all these authors in one place would definitely be interesting and something I would want to see.
And now for the re-cap of my last week of posts. Click on each one to be taken to that post, if you wanna check it out. I didn't have a lot of time to write reviews this week, that's why you will find a lot of memes and updates below. But I promise to get back in my swing of reviewing soon. =]

Oooh Jane Austen. It would be brilliant to talk to the author of Pride and Prejudice, one of my favourite books ever! Great list :)
You have a great choice of authors! I completely forgot to add in the classics but I most likely would have chosen the exact same ones as you!

O yes what a mix but a good one. I would have loved to have met Jane austin she is my all time fav. great picks
Jane Austen is a must have. I can just imagine her asking for tea and then talking in that wonderfully elaborate voice she has in her novels. :D Thanks for stopping by my blog! New follower.
