Follow Friday number 4


Follow Friday is an awesome way to make new friends and gain followers for your blog. Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read

Q. Name 3 authors that you would love to sit down and spend an hour or a meal with just talking about either their books or get advice on writing from?

A. Well my first answer is going to be pretty boring because it's J.K. Rowling, can you imagine the advice she could give you? Second I think it would have to be Lili St. Crow (author of the Strange Angels series) because that's pretty much one of the few YA UF/PNR series that I enjoy.  Lastly it would be the author of my favourite book of the year Ruta Sepetys. I loved Between Shades of Gray so much and I'd really love to talk to her about the whole story. If one of those lovely ladies turned me down I'd love to talk to Michelle Zink because she is just so sweet.

So what about you? Who would you have sitting around your table? Let me know and if you follow me please add your link so I can return the favour.

Haha, HP is epic though =D I had a feeling it was an obvious choice but I couldn't help putting it down.

Love your blog! New follower. Reviewing in the Shadow is precisely how I feel about it.

CharmaineElaine said...

Thank you Belle. I actually only started the blog because the name just came to me one day. It's one way to start a new hobby. =P

Sophie Gonzales said...

Hi Char, thanks for visiting my blog! I'm now following you back. :D

I have to admit, I've never read the Harry Potter series. Need to definitely do that at some point!

CharmaineElaine said...

Not a problem =)

I didn't get into the Harry Potter until book 4 so it's never too late!

BJ said...

I love the Strange Angels series. Refreshingly un-highschool, I thought! :)

Happy FF!

Great picks! I wish HP wasn't ending! I'm a new follower. My answers are up at Coffee Table Reviews.

CharmaineElaine said...

@Donna Great choices, I really need to read some more Charlaine Harris.

@Shanan Strange Angels is one of my favourite series. It's awesome.

@Aimee I know what you mean. I'm looking forward to the Pottermore site being opened.

Tiger Holland said...

I've just read the first book by Lili St. Crow, but I definitely want to try more of her work. Old follower!

CharmaineElaine said...

You really should Tiger, Lili is an awesome writer.

Christin said...

Thanks for stopping by my blog - I'm a new follower here. I think it would be amazing to talk to Ruta Sepetys - Between Shades of Gray was so moving.

Hope you have a great weekend!

CharmaineElaine said...

Not a problem. It was amazing, I loved everything about it.

Hope you do too!

Char =)

Mimi Valentine said...

Ooh! Lili St. Crow's books have been on my TBR list for the longest time! :) Have you met Michelle Zink before? From reading her books, I think she seems like the type to be incredibly sweet, too!

Can you believe that I've actually never read or watched anything Harry Potter? Lame, I know x)

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have the most amazing weekend! :)

Alison Can Read said...

Hopping through. I'd love to meet Ruta! Between Shades of Gray was one of the best books I've read this year.
