Ten Authors We Own The Most Books From

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week's Top Ten list is
"Ten Authors We Own The Most Books From"

Ok, so we have decided to focus ONLY on the physical copies that we purchased - no ebooks, audiobooks, or ARCs. And we kept it strictly Young Adult.

Nicole's Top Five

J. K. Rowling

Don't ask me where book two went. It fell victim to 10-year old Nicole's whims.

Stephanie Meyer

Yes, I own a box set of the Twilight series. No comment.

Laini Taylor

I didn't even know I had that signed placard until I took this photo.

Leigh Bardugo

Shadow & Bone is signed thanks to Ashley!

Marissa Meyer

Waiting for Fairest and Winter :D

Ashley's Top Five

Maggie Stiefvater

Cassandra Clare

I have more books in The Mortal Instruments series but can't seem to locate them :)

Rainbow Rowell

Rainbow Rowell books are one of my most recent collection

Kiersten White

I actually did not realize I had four of her books!

Jennifer L. Armentrout

Even though it looks like three books, the two Lux books are actually two books!

What are your top ten?

I can't wait to add Fairest and Winter to my Marissa Meyer collection. Such pretty spines too! Harry Potter and the Grisha series are of course also on my shelves. I own the first two books from Laini Taylor. I love the spines from The raven boys and The dream thieves - so far the only two books I have from Stiefvater.

Heck yeah to Maggie Stiefvater books! Those are totally starting to dominate my shelves too!

Laini Taylor is a great author! I keep thinking I should try out Leigh Bardugo, but everytime I read the blurbs from the books, I don't think I am going to like them. Great list

I have yet to read most of these myself! I would include CC if I had her but I borrowed all of her books off a friend and I'm kind of glad I didn't buy any myself. Same goes ofr Twilight.
Happy reading!

And p.s.: HB ToG will be out at the same time as HoF apparently, as per Bloomsbury. ;)

Love the pictures, I can't wait to have organised beautiful bookcases again! My babies are all boxed up at the minute. Lux is on my hit-list, as are more Sarah Dessen books and Smoke and Bone, Ruin and Rising AND Cress series'...

Wooohooo! I am so inlove with your hardbacks. But OMG, they're so expensive here in the Philippines. My only hardcover set is Harry Potter. And I am so envious with your Lunar Chronicles trilogy. I only have e-book copies because they're not available here. And thank you, I forgot to include Marissa on my list. Hahahaha. *** hurries back to the blog to edit post***

Oh wow! First of all, I looooove the new blog design <3
I love hardback so much. Your books look so pretty! CC, JKR & JLA made it onto my list too! Wow, the bind ups of the Lux series are pretty big! I've got quite a few Maggie Stiefvater, but not as many as you!

Gahhhh...you have such amazing collections of some fantastic books. Can I just come over and lovingly stare at them? Seriously, so impressed by the greatness you've collected.

Hey, if I had known how much I'd come to love the Twilight series, I would have invested in a boxed set, too! ;-)

Nicole, at least you don't also own the Twilight illustrated guide, the novella about Bree Tanner, and the Twilight Director's Notebook like someone else I may or may not know. This person that I know doesn't necessarily regret owning them, but still... lol

Ashley, have you not read Scorpio Races by Stiefvater or do you just not own it? You should read it if you haven't, it's really good. :)

I have the Twilight and Harry Potter books on my shelf too, but they didn't make it on to my list. Thanks for stopping by my blog. :)

Great lists ladies! I love that you took pictures of the books too, I didn't even think about doing that when I was working on my post last night and I haven't seen many other people that did it. I completely forgot to add Maggie Stiefvater to my list. I have 5 of her books, 6 if I count an ARC of Sinner as one. Most of the books I have are three book series though, so I had a lot of trouble figuring out who I had more than three books from.

Thanks for stopping by my post! :)

Great list! J K Rowling also made my list (and everyone's I think!). Don't know what it is about the 2nd book but mine was chewed by my rabbit...luckily I have 2 copies of every book (original and new copies!). Love Rainbow Rowell's books too.

Daughter of Smoke and Bone books are so pretty…I really need to buy those in hardback. And yes, I do have all of the Twilight books…of course. I was in a book club a few years ago and we read a lot of pseudo literary books, but we had about 20 people show up when the book was one of the Twilight books. We didn't participate this week, but mine would include Richelle Mead and Cassandra Clare. JLA if I included Kindle books (I don't like paperbacks so I only buy her books on Kindle). Great list, a lot of my favorite authors!!

What pretty author stacks! We have Rowell, Clare, and Stiefvater in common. I would love to own M. Meyer, Taylor and Bardugo's books in print. So gorgeous!

Love seeing Marissa Meyer, Maggie Stiefvater, and JLA! They made my list too. :) I haven't read the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series yet, but I have the first book and definitely want to get the other two.

Wooo lovely collections! I have a lot of the same ones on my list too! What's good for me is that (yes, my list included Stephenie Meyer too) once I got past four books, I had several authors I owned three from. Glad that was all! Haha

I have that same Twilight collection, and nope, I'm not apologizing, either. That's funny about the signed Laini Taylor print. I pre-ordered from B&N (which I'm guessing you did, too) just to get it. But I still haven't read the book!
