Super Six Sunday: Authors I’d like to meet/loved meeting :)

1 Jul 2013


Super Six Sunday is a meme created by Bewitched Bookworms and inspired by "Top Ten Tuesdays" by The Broke and Bookish.

Author’s I’d like to meet/loved meeting
I have a confession to make; I think I’ve only met one author in my entire life. There were several opportunities for me to meet some of my favourite authors over the past few years, however I was always either busy/something important came up on the day.  Examples include Becca Fitzpatrick, Lauren Oliver, Gayle Forman and Abbi Glines. This list will therefore be comprised of ONE author I’ve met & 5 I’d love to meet one day!

*RACHEL VINCENT*
I had the opportunity to meet Rachel Vincent during the Harlequin Summit held earlier this year in February. Rachel was so lovely and absolutely hilarious! I lost count of the number of times I cracked up when she talked to us :)


*J.K ROWLING*
Harry Potter is my all-time favourite series<3 It would be such an honour to meet J.K Rowling in person!

*KATIE MCGARRY*
Katie McGarry’s books are an automatic buy for me. Pushing The Limits was definitely my favourite book of 2012 and I also loved Dare You To so needless to say, I’d LOVE to meet Katie in real life! Hopefully she’ll visit Australia one day!<3

*GAYLE FORMAN*
Unfortunately, I missed Gayle’s event in Sydney earlier this year :( Gayle’s meet and greet in Sydney was on the same day as my friend’s mock court trial and since I’d promised I’d go support my friend, I wasn’t able to attend the event. It’s a pity I missed it, but hopefully there’ll be another chance for me to meet Gayle in the future!

*JULIE KAGAWA*
I’ve been a fan of Julie's since her debut novel The Iron King came out in 2010! Ash quickly became my favourite book boyfriend of all time and I’d like nothing more than to meet the mastermind behind the creation of one of my favourite characters ever<3 Hopefully Julie will visit Australia one day as well! :)

*COLLEEN HOOVER*
I LOVEEEEED Slammed and Point of Retreat!!! (So did my friends when I lent the books to them!!) Colleen’s my favourite NA author so I hope I get to meet her and have all my books signed one day! 

What about you? Who are some of the authors you've met or who are you dying to meet? :)
