How many can YOU name, boys and girls?
1. Favorite author

HINT: She's only written two books since her 1992 debut, but they're both killer.
2. Author of the book I'm currently reading

HINT: The English translation of her latest book was just released in July.
3. An author I've met in person, albeit briefly

HINT: I think the stuff hanging on the walls behind him should be hint enough.
4. A YouTube clip of an author I've heard speak
5. The author of the book I've most recently finished

HINT: She's a former LA Times writer.
6a. Hottest authors (male)

6b. Hottest authors (female)

HINTS: In addition to being highly photogenic, both authors released incredible books in 2008, one set in Soviet Russia, the other in 1920s Hollywood.
I think that first author is Donna Tartt.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely right!
ReplyDeleteLoved The Secret History!
ReplyDeleteDonna Tarte is the only author I recognize.
I'm not very good at this.
I recognize the male hottie - Tom Rob Smith! Mmm.... I've been meaning to get to his Child 44 for forever now, but my library's copy is always check out. Sad.
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I don't recognize any of them!
ReplyDeleteSadly I don't know any of them. But in the video she says her name I don't remember her first name but I believe the last was Castalucci(sp?).
ReplyDeleteThe first lady looks INTENSE.
ReplyDeleteI feel so bad! I don't know anyone!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my author photos!
I know the first 2 - Donna Tartt and Natsuo Kirino but from there Im lost.
ReplyDeleteNobody's guessed yet, so I'll just go ahead and name the fellow with the bald head: Brian K. Vaughan (Y: The Last Man, Ex Machina, Runaways).
