Ten Authors We REALLY Want To Meet

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. This week's Top Ten list is
"Ten Authors We REALLY Want To Meet"

Nicole's Top Five

I've actually been pretty fortunate and have had the chance to meet many of my favorite authors already but there are still quite a few I hope to meet someday, including this list and more!

1. J. K. Rowling - She brought magic into my life and the only thing better than a Harry Potter box set is a SIGNED Harry Potter Box Set. :D

2. Melina Marchetta - I would probably go into shock because I LOVE HER BOOKS.

3. Emory Lord - she just seems like one of the sweetest and coolest authors ever! Oh, and I LOVE HER BOOKS.

4. Kasie West - Again, I LOVE HER BOOKS and I want to know her secret.

5. Jay Kristoff - He is HILARIOUS and (drumroll) I LOVE HIS BOOKS. :D

Ashley's Top Five

This is actually a hard list to make, I too have been fortunate and met many of my favorite authors!

1. J.K. Rowling - I am 10000% with Nicole on this one, I would love to meet her and have my Harry Potter collection signed!

2. Laini Taylor - She pretty much just seems awesome with her pink hair and fantastic books.

3. Suzanne Collins -I think it would be so cool to meet her.

4. Ally Carter - Her spy books are so fun and quick reads. I have read most all her books!

5. Robin Benway - She has such witty characters, funny, and entertaining characters.

What are your top ten?

Of course I'd love to meet JK Rowling, but I doubt that is EVER going to happen. *sigh* But oh, I'd love to meet Kasie West, Emery Lord, and Laini Taylor! Love their books so much, and Emery is such a hoot on Twitter. She'd be such a fun person to meet in real life. :)

I'd love to meet JK Rowling too, she was on my list, as was Suzanne Collins. If I'd had more than ten, I would have put Ally Carter on there as well, I love her Heist Society books!

So many great authors, so hard to choose who to meet! Jennifer Armentrout always seems like she would be a fun author to meet.

Great lists!

I would also love to meet J. K. Rowling, Emery Lord, or Kasie West! I have been decently lucky in that I've met 2 of my favorite authors, but unfortunately not many authors come to WI.

I would seriously die if I ever got to meet Melina Marchetta. She is my favorite and I just want to fangirl to her face haha.
Robin Benway and Kasie West would be tons of fun to meet, too. :)

Lovely picks, ladies!

@Nicole I want to meet JK Rowling so bad. Kasie West's books are so wonderful, I'd love to get a chance to talk to her!

@Ashely I hope we both get to meet Laini Taylor and get our books signed. Her series is amazing.

Rowling seems to be winning this week's lists :) I guess that's what you get for being a popular author AND a nice person :) Also, surprise, this is the first Suzanne Collins I have seen... (as a TTT newbie, I am working my way meticulously down the list...)
Cheers! :)

J.K Rowling, that is no surprise :D I would turn in a mumbling mess, but the idea of shaking her hand and getting a copy of HP signed while telling her how much her books mean to me.. Yes.

Kasie West gets a big hug, because she is one of the few authors that make me fall in love with contemporaries.
Laini Taylor would be pretty awesome too! I love her writing-style.
