Favourite authors?

Favourite authors?

I have a lot of favourite authors, however I tend to read any book that piques my interest.

Most recently, I discovered Monica McInerney. My boys gave me one of her books, Upside Down, Inside Out, for Christmas last year and I really enjoyed it. My mum picked up a few more of her books for me at a church fete that I read while we were on holidays.

I also recently discovered Michael Wagner while researching my book for this months Chapter Book Challenge. I read his Maxx Rumble books to do with Aussie Rules Football and thought they were very funny. I want to read some more.

Janette Oke is a Christian author I discovered when I was in high school. I often go back to her books and am also enjoying some of her more recent books.

I think I’d better stop now or I’ll start adding in every author I can think of!! There are a lot of authors I enjoy reading, and these are only three of them!
