Top Ten Authors I've Only Read One Book From & Need to Read More!
Do you know how never-ending this list is???? I always, always, ALWAYS, read one book per author, which honestly needs to stop because I have read so many great books. I just never follow up with more, because I like to start fresh.
I will try to narrow it down to only 10 though. HA.
I'll put the author first, then a book I HAVE read by them, and one that I desperately want to read next.

Maggie Stiefvater - Author of The Raven Boys
I desperately need to read the next book after The Raven Boys, aka The Dream Thieves just because Blue Lily, Lily Blue is coming out soon and I must not fall behind! Another book by her I really also want to read is The Scorpio Races, because it just looks so epic!
A. G. Howard - Author of Splintered
I have YET TO READ Unhinged, I mean I did take it out of the library that one time, but had to return it simply because I was traveling back to school. If I do get a library card here (I'm such a wimp with adult social stuff), then I'll definitely request it!
Marissa Meyer - Author of Cinder
I am currently reading Scarlet now, but I've only gotten through the first 70 pages! Anyways, I WANT MORE. I want to read everything Marissa Meyer has written, because let me tell ya, she does a fantastic job with her writing style, showing rather than telling. It is GREAT.
The Book Thief was one of my favorite reads of last year, AND IT WAS SO WELL DONE. I definitely want to read his other book, I Am The Messenger, just because I also heard it was really good.
Haruki Murakami - Author of The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle
I used to be obsessed with trying to read all of Haruki Murakami's books, but then I stopped after the first book I read by him. I'm not sure why, I mean it was good, but if I had to put this in a genre, it's definitely literature that has tons of deep meaning connected to it. But I do want to read Kafka on the Shore!
Leigh Bardugo - Author of Shadow and Bone

Leigh Bardugo - Author of Shadow and Bone
I LOVED Shadow and Bone, but just haven't gotten to Siege and Storm yet for some unknown reason! But it is on my shelf, so I will get to finishing this trilogy soon!
Susanna Kearsley - Author of The Firebird
I did like The Firebird, I did. But I think I only gave it 3 stars just because. But I still want to read The Winter Sea, because Susanna Kearsley does write some good historical fiction, and I heard this other book by hers is amazing!
Lauren Oliver - Author of Delirium
I seriously need to read more of Lauren Oliver's books, because even though I did like Delirium, I'm not sure if I'll continue the series. But I do want to read Panic!
Catherynne M. Valente - Author of The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making
THIS SERIES. It's really good for a children's series, though I had to get used to the writing style for the first book. But it's very "fairy-tale" like in style, and I loved it tons! I need to read the sequel though, which is again another long title I don't feel like writing out!
Stacey Rourke - Author of Crane (The Legends Saga)
LOOK AT THIS NEW AND UPCOMING AUTHOR. This series seriously needs to be more popular because it's pretty good! I'll be reading Raven sometime this week for a blog tour next week!
Finally, I am done. Feel free to link up TTT's!
I finished this during stats class this morning, I feel like a badass :P

Scarlet is my favorite from the Lunar Chronicles! Cress is a close second on that ;) Also: Siege and Storm is my favorite from the Grisha trilogy. SO FAB!

Argh. Why haven't you picked up Scarlet as soon as you finished Cinder? Bwahaaha. Sorry if I sound so demanding but like what you said, Marissa's books are definitely awesome. I actually binge read on Cinder and Scarlet and was so annoyed that I still have to wait for 5 months for Cress to come out. x.x
Haruki Murakami- I've read his After Dark and I swear, I didn't understand what kind of message it's trying to convey. I don't know whether it was horrible or my intellectual capacity is really mediocre.
Awesome list, Val!
