Re: Who's Your Favorite Author?
I think Shakespeare's works never go out of style though. That's a big deal .
And recently, Angela Marson's works have captivated me. Especially the D.I Kim Stone series. I absolutely love them!

I really love the way Orwell is able to create worlds that are simultaneously realistic and unrealistic. They feel relevant and I really enjoy his world building.
I love Rowell’s world building as well, in a very different way. Carry On feels magical and unique and I love the representation she so easily weaves in.

Close runners-up include William Faulkner, Donald Ray Pollack, Flannery O'Connor, Stephen King, Don Delillo, Thomas Pynchon, John Irving, Jonathan Franzen, David Mitchell, Dave Eggers, and Jonathan Safran Foer.
Frankly, I'm surprised no one here seems to share my tastes; I thought they were mainstream, seeing as almost all those are bestselling novelists. King is a common touchpoint, though, so I guess I'm not that weird! Oh, and I love J.K. Rowling, too, although I probably would have never read her novels if their movies adaptations hadn't taken off.

Nfbuckeye, Don't know if you'll see all this time later; not sure how that works, being new and all; but I just wanted to throw my vote behind them fellers, too. Seems we share a similar taste in literature. In fact, I'm particularly enjoying Franzen right now, his Crossroads being the best I've read this year.

Now Ruta Sepetys is one of my favorites, I wish she had more books. Can't wait to read the new one!

Because his English is very easy to understand. Almost all of the books he has written, the lesson can be applied in real life
