Top Ten Authors I Wish Would Write Another Book

Top 10 Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish
 This is a really hard question so I'll do my best!
 
1. Jane Austen – This is the very first author that came to mind.  I love all of her books and wish she would have lived longer to write many more.

2. Charlotte Bronte – Again, I love Jane Eyre, imagine what else she might have written if she lived longer!

3. La Vyrle Spencer - I love her books and I’ve read them all.  My favorites are Morning Glory, Years and The Endearment, there is something so beautiful and poignant about her writing, but alas she has retired. 

4. Jules Verne – Here is an author with a huge imagination!  I’m sure his next book was going to be about computers!

5. J.K. Rowling – She is alive and well, and as far as I know not retired.  BUT we don’t have any more Harry Potter books!  I still think we deserve to know what happened between Voldemort’s defeat and the Epilogue of The Deathly Hollows. Don’t you?

6. Ann Brashares – I have never read the Traveling Pants series, but I did read My Name is Memory.  What on earth happened here?  Is this a series?  I was left without a proper ending and I can’t find information about a sequel anywhere!

7. Rebecca MaizelInfinite Days was published in 2010 and I’m still waiting for Stolen Nights (its sequel).  I know it’s coming, but it’s taking forever.  I really hope that if there is a third book we get to see it sooner (two years is a loooong wait!)

8. Stephanie Perkins – I know she wrote a book after Anna and the French Kiss, but I want a sequel to Anna so bad!  It is hands down, one of my favorite books ever.

9. Sarah Dessen – This is one of my favorite authors and I love her books (especially The Truth about Forever), but they are all stand-alone books.  Not that this is a bad thing, but sometimes I want to know what happens next


I almost made it to ten!  Well, that’s all I have.  I am eager to know what is in your Top Ten this week :)

  1. I have never read anything by La Vyrle Spencer. I am going to have to read one of her books after seeing your comment.

  2. You should read Lola and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins!! Ettiene and Anna are in that book as well. Obviously NOT as main characters, but it definitely brings you back to that first book!! Kristin from GrowingUpYA.blogspot.com

  3. I need so much more from JK Rowling. I know we have Pottermore, but it's just not the same! And I agree with Rebecca Maizel, Stolen Nights needs to be released asap! :)

  4. Nice picks! I like Charlotte and Jane in particular...although I'd settle for Sarah Dessen, too. :)

  5. It would be fun to have an actual sequel for Anna and the French Kiss instead of just companion novels.
