Why?

chloe neill, richelle mead, stephanie meyer, jeaniene frost, larissa ione, karen marie moning....

just read a book from them, i simply could not stop reading. their books r soooooo good. very addictive!

Karen Marie Moning is my number one Favorite.

Her Highlander series was great, but I just couldn't put down the Fever Series... I'm still anxiously awaiting the final book in the series!

:)

I recommend the Fever Series to anyone!

Other favorite authors would include:

JR Ward
Jeaniene Frost
Larissa Ione
Charlaine Harris

how could i forget her..XD

Melina Marchetta : I loved her books Saving Francesca and Jellicoe Road. They are my top favorites and they make me laugh. I love the characters.

Rachel Vincent: Her shifters series are amazing, The fourth one made me cry which is rare, I love the main character. She is very well written. And i love the love triangle.

I would reccomend for someone to try those authors

ooooo there is a Triangle?

:)

I'm soo going to read those next then!

Karen Moning & Diana Gabaldon

I can't pick a favorite there are so many good ones but I do really enjoy J.R. Ward and Stephenie Meyer.

1. Richelle Mead (all her series are amazing)
2. Karen Marie Moning (Barrons~~)
3. Anna Godberson (Th Luxe)
4. Jeanine Frost (Night Huntress <333)
5. Rachel Vincent (Shifters/Wercats)

I need to add Stacia Kane to the list.

So far my fave author is Larissa Ione. Really, really like her work.

I read Shifters before reading Fever and since I know you like Fever I'll say this : Faythe in book 1 is like Mac in book 1 of Fever. She matures much in the same way as Mac does, so if you find yourself wanting to strangle her in book 1, just remember the Fever series and it will all make sense.

Shifters is a great series!

haha. its funny. i had no problem wit mac in any of the books including book 1, i dont find them similar. i find faythe a pain in the ass and ill be trying to get through the next books, b/c they say book 3 is really good and it gets better.

I gotta add (b/c I am a broken record) Stacia Kane for the Downside Ghosts (UF series):

Also I have only read the first in one of each of their series, but I have enjoyed Shelly Laurentsen and Moira Rogers, both writing PNR:

Sherrilyn Kenyon, Charlaine Harris and Richelle Mead

Richelle Mead, Maggie Stiefvater, Laurell k Hamilton

My fave authors have to be Sherrilyn Kenyon, Karen Marie Moning, Yasmine Galenorn, Jacqueline Carey, Shelly Laurensten and Patrica Briggs.

karen marie moning does not disappoint.

my favorite authors are
1. R.L. Stine
2. L.J. Smith
3. Kelly Creagh

Ah, I use to be such a huge R.L. Stine fan. Anything but the goosebumps was golden with me. I recently donated my entire collection to my locol library because I wasn't going to read them anymore.

they assured me they would put them out for the kiddies, but I found my books at the local thrift store two days later. Bastards.

I have to agree with you, Michael. I read a lot of Lovecraft many (many) years ago when I was reading a fair amount of horror. His books are quite subtle, I think, and are free of gore-fests (which is one of the reasons I liked them). However, I found the creep factor increased with each book I read since I became more aware of the "eldrich" elements in the story. I would certainly rank him with the masters of horror.

My favorite authors would have to be Veronica Blade, Jennifer L. Armentrout/J. Lynn, Quinn Loftis, and Richelle Mead. I can always pick up a book by these authors and know I will love it. Haven't read a book by one of them that I don't love so far!

Karen Marie Moning, Jacqueline Carey, Neil Gaiman, Nika Harper and Charlotte Brontë to name a few.

I really enjoy Dana Marie Bell.

I have to Diana Gabaldon. She's so talented to be able to place you in the scene with one paragraph.

The very top of my list right now is Jim Butcher. His Dresden Files series has been fantastic to date, getting better with each story.

I have a few I love. First on the list, maybe because it's recent: Jim Butcher. I love his style in general, and I love Dresden's Files. Second, Terry Goodkind, for his Sword of truth series, although he should have stopped them when they ended. In third place, Tracy Hickman and Margaret Weiss. They are an amazing duo.

Lots of favorites here. Just a few I don't see on the list who I think deserve to be here:
Seanan McGuire -
Ilona Andrews -
Rob Thurman -
Kelley Armstrong -

Some of my favorites are Kim Harrison, Rachel Vincent, and Ellen Hopkins.

Top of the list are Anya Bast (Elements series), P.C.Cast (Goddess series), Laurell K.Hamilton (Merry Gentry), Katie MacAllister (Light Dragons), and more recently Julie Kagawa (Iron Fey) (in no particular order).

Hard hard hard. Erm... Kelley Armstrong, Rachel Caine, Rachel Vincent, Keri Arthur, Patricia Briggs, that may be to many. :-D

This changed just about every time I pick up a book by an author I haven't read before, but here goes: Nalini Singh, Kim Harrison, Rachel Vincent, Patricia Briggs, Mira Grant.
