Top Ten Tuesday is an weekly meme created by the awesome people at The Broke and Bookish, who love lists as much as I do.
Top Ten Bookish People You Want To Meet (Authors, Bloggers, etc.)
In no particular order…
1. Maureen Johnson
I’ve only read one of her books, but I follower her on twitter and she is the funniest person ever.
2. Meg Cabot
I love Heather Wells books and since she writes them I feel like we could be great friends.
3. John Green
Who wouldn’t want to meet John Green.
4. Courtney from Abducted by Books
5. Andrea from The Overstuffed Bookcase
I feel like I know them well already but we’ve never met in real life. Someday we will and it will be awesome!
6. Jenny from Alternate Readality
If Jenny and I ever met we would probably watch a lot of TV. We like quite a few of the same shows.
7. Sophie Kinsella
My absolute favorite chick lit author, and she is British and I love British accents.
8. JK Rowling
This one should need NO explanation.
9. Christopher Pike
He was the author of my childhood.
10. All the other bloggers out there
I want to meet all of you, because you all rock!
Ditto for JK Rowling … and I still haven’t read any John Green books! I so need to fix that.
John Green is amazing, and JK Rowling is pretty much on any and every list today, and for good reason!
I really do feel like John Green and JK Rowling need no explanation, haha! Maureen Johnson is absolutely hilarious on twitter. Great list!
My Top Ten
I would totally read a book full of MJ’s tweets alone. She cracks me up all the time.
Seeing lots of JK Rowling today! Ditto on your #10. :D Happy Tuesday!
My TTT
Meeting all the other bloggers at BEA was one of my favorite parts!
I met Maureen Johnson, she is soooo funny. I’ve been very fortunate to meet a lot of authors…and book bloggers like you too!
I’m so jealous that you met Marueen Johnson. I wish I lived somewhere cooler where authors came all the time.
It was a pleasure to meet you too! I loved meeting all the other bloggers, it was sooooo much fun!
Yup, I love your author list, and I agree, I want to meet all the book bloggers ever.
That pretty much sums it up!
Love your list of authors. Well I know have two bloggers taken of my list to meet and you know who they are LOL ;)
Lol yep ;) Meeting other bloggers rock!
I glanced at your list in my google reader and I got all excited because I was above JK Rowling , but then I brought up the actually link and saw that you said “no particular order” and I was bummed…
Sorry… them’s the breaks ;)
Maureen is JUST as funny in real life! So fun to meet her! And OMG I MAY be able to meet John Green this weekend at the National Book Fest and I might die. Or pee my pants. I know flailing will be involved!
Someday I will meet Maureen. And John Green. I hope you get to at the Book Fest. Sadly I just couldn’t work out going.
And flailing is always ok when it comes to John Green.
I also have a childhood author on my list – R.L. Stine, ha! Great picks! Here’s my TTT: http://whatsontheshelf.wordpress.com/2012/09/04/top-ten-tuesday-21/
I read a lot of RL Stine but I liked Pike better. ;)
I would love to meet Meg Cabot too. Mainly just to gush about how much I loved, nay, adored Avalon High!
I’m very flattered that I made your list. And, yes, we’d definitely have to watch lots of shows together. :)
Yeah, I don’t see us talking much books, but that’s ok, TV is good too!
Great choices!
And I’m happy that I met you already :) Meeting other bloggers is always so much fun.
I’m so happy to have met you too! I want to meet more bloggers. I love knowing other people who lvoes books as much as I do.
I totally wish that I hadn’t skipped this week!!!!!!!!!! I met Meg Cabot and John Green at signings a few years ago. And I’m going to a John Green signing TOMORROW. OMG.
This was a fun one!
Yes, one day we will meet and it will be awesome. ;)
Fantastic picks. I LOVE Maureen Johnson and I have yet to read one of her books! I do own like 3 of them, though. And yes, I would have to say that J.K. Rowling would be the ULTIMATE author to meet. I’d probably pee in my pants or something, though. Meh, it’d still be worth it! ;)
Yeah, I would probably pee in my pants too if I met JK Rowling. And stutter and generally embarrass myself.
