As a young adult, I truly enjoy YA fiction. Among the YA books I have read, John Green's novels stand out the most with their unique endings and the feelings they evoke from their readers. :eusa-pray:

I enjoyed the Suzanne Collins writing the best of the Young Adult authors I've read, but though I enjoyed the Hunger Games trilogy enough to read it twice, I wouldn't say that is my favorite series of Young Adult books. Probably because the subject matter is so dark, I guess.
As a young adult, I grew up in love with this series and the characters it contained. As President Snow would say, "Hope is the only thing stronger than fear." :D

My favorite writer is John Green. His writing is so eloquent and it truly transports you into the story. I loved Looking for Alaska, it was so beautifully written and it dealt with such a heavy topic so gracefully. Overall, John Greens’s writing is phenomenal.

I enjoyed Leigh Bardugo's books! The magic systems and character developments were well written.

This is a hard one for me. For the longest time I would’ve said JK Rowling. But now she’s ruining her image for me with her sketchy attitude of transgender people. My best friend is transgender and I love him to death. Now I would probably say Suzanne Collins, since the Hunger Games was another formative novel when I was young.

I would say that Chris Colfer is one of my young adult authors. His series of The Land of Stories is just very creative. When I read it, it almost feels like I can really picture what is going on in the book like it's a movie. I really hope he will continue the series even more.

My favourite is probably Jonathan Stroud who wrote the Bartimaeus trilogy. They're so funny and I've reread them so many times as an adult. Definitely check them out if you're a Harry Potter fan!

This is honestly such a hard question to answer. But off the top of my head- Emma Mills, Morgan Matson, Marie Lu, Julie Kagawa, Maria Snyder and Ally Carter.

Though it has been years now since I've completed the Harry Potter books I still have to say those were some of my best years so most definitely our billionaire author J.K Rowling. The lady who believed and so it was.

I've read so many books that I have alot of favorite YA authors but my all time favorite is Cassandra Clare author of the Infernal Devices, Mortal Instruments, and all the other shadowhunter series. She makes the books intriguing and relatable. There is adventure within every page of the books.
