Over 35: Favorite Authors of All Time (99 books)

Listopia > Over 35: Favorite Authors of All Time

Favorite authors of all time as voted on by readers at least 35 years old.

Guidelines:
  • What? Rules? These will hopefully preserve a useful, quality list of good authors.
  • Do not vote here if you are not at least 35 years old.
  • Please do not select/add any authors unless you have read at least a few authors on the list.
  • Please do not select/add any author unless you have read and liked at least two of their books.
  • This is not a list for your favorite book.
  • If an author wrote only one notable book ... do not add them to this list.
  • This is for authors of good books (plural) ... a touchstone for good reading.
  • Please do not add an author who is already on the list.
  • Please do not add an author who is already on the list with a different book/edition.
  • If adding an author, please select their most popular/well-known book (not a series).
  • We are aiming for an author's most-recognized book, not their best/highest-rated best book.
  • We want their most-recognized work ... even if you haven't read that particular book.
  • When you click on an authors link, the book at the top of their list is generally the most popular.
  • The top book on the authors list is sometimes not their most popular/well-known.
  • If you're certain another book is more-recognized (top 3, nearly as many ratings as most), OK.
  • Please do not select an esoteric/unrecognizable edition of an author's book.
  • The edition at the top of the list of all editions is usually a decent pick.
  • The first edition hardcopy, or paperback, are usually decent picks.
  • Sometimes, artwork is usefully better in a paperback, anniversary, or movie release edition.
  • We're aiming for an edition that is recognizable, has clear font, and the authors name is legible.
