Hmm.. I really don't call it "auto-buy" because no matter how much of a favorite author that is of mine, if the book doesn't sound good or anything I'm interested in, then I won't buy it. But so far, some of these authors got me hooked on their books. I'm a romance-junkie and I enjoy contemporary romance a lot. I've been reading more romance books this year than my other favorite genre which is fantasy.
Note: I love these authors' books however, their books are still a hit or miss from me. Doesn't stop me from reading it though if the blurb sounded good.
01. LAUREN LAYNE
She's my number one right now even though her latest release wasn't a favorite. Still, I look forward to every book she's going to release in the future. I'm anticipating the rest of Central Park Pact books.
02. MIA SHERIDAN
I love her books and how her stories are both sweet and emotionally-challenging. Archer's Voice is one of my favorite reads this year. Probably also my most favorite book of hers.
03. R.S. GREY
With this Heart was the first book I read and I really loved that book. It's different from her recent works since her recent ones are lighter and more of a rom-com. I don't mind though.
04. CHRISTINA LAUREN
I haven't read their popular Beautiful Bastard series and I plan to get on that soon. I've read their stand-alones and I enjoyed them. I also love how pretty their books' covers are.
05. KASIE WEST
I hardly read YA contemporary romance these days but when I do, it's always a Kasie West book. I've read some that I enjoy and some I didn't. Still, I'll always look forward to her upcoming books.
For YA fantasy, it's kind of hard to label these authors as "auto-buy" but I usually enjoy their writing so I don't mind picking up their books... again, depends if it sounds good.
06. Jennifer L. Armentrout - JLA's writing is enjoyable (I love the banter between her main characters A LOT) and I love her Storm and Fury book. I keep mentioning how much I love this book.
07. Marie Lu - The Legend trilogy is one of my favorites ever and I'm looking forward to her upcoming new series.
08. Julie Kagawa - She's an underrated author and so are her books. She writes interesting fantasy books. From faeries to dragons to vampires to demons to Japanese folklore creatures.
09. Cassandra Clare - I'm not really into her books anymore but I really love the The Dark Artifices characters and I plan on continuing the series, and I love the Herondales so I'm looking forward to The Last Hours soon.
10. Marissa Meyer - I loved The Lunar Chronicles. I love Renegades. Her stories fascinate me.
What about you?
Who are you auto-buy authors? :)
