I really like the books written by Dave Pelzer.
I like stories or novels that happened in real life. I can feel the different emotions, pain, misfortune and others that are described by the author.
Also, his books are very inspiring. Especially when you wanted novels about family and a life of a child.

My favorite author is most definitely Edgar Allan Poe. I’ve always connected with him, whether it was his poetry or stories. Something about his style captivated me from the beginning.

I don't see Mary Higgins Clark. She has a unique style in telling her story. It hits your soul really. There is Daniel Steel, my oh my, I can't begin to write about her. Her books are intriguing, smart and brain racking. Nora Roberts, Jane Austen and John Grisham. Perfectly beautiful writers with outstanding writing skills.

My favorite author is definitely Jonathan Safran Foer. He's so intelligent and it shows in his writing. I love every book he has written and I even was able to meet him. He's an amazing person, and although his writing can be heavy, it contains a lot of wisdom and is worth the read.

I love romance and coming-of-age novels. My favorite authors by far would be John Green, Sarah Dessen, and Jenny Han. These authors write realisically. In fact, I can relate to many of the details that they include in their books.

To tell you the truth, my favourite author is George Martin, the creator of Game of thrones universe and writer of the book series A Song of Ice and Fire. He is has a great message in every passage of his books and his masterpieces of literature affect my mind deeply, i can't simply pit away the book until i finish it

Fyodor Dostoevsky. Mainly because of his keen grasp of psychology and human nature. It's amazing how he was able to write many masterpieces. This was not easy particularly when he had to write for a living. Imagine what he could have done if he was born rich.

Gosh.... i have many favorites... but I know favorite means you only have to choose, but there's many to choose from!!! But I love John Green, all of his quirky attitudes and sappy novels. I would love to have a drink with him and maybe ask an advice on how to make your charcaters prone to love or how do you make it happen. Another one is Tahereh Mafi, I love her shatter me series currently reading her 4th installment of her series. And how can you not love her? She's awesome and makes dystopian novels and atvthe same time has romance in it. It gave me chills. And add some comedy into.
