Faking Faith by Josie Bloss
Rage began to bloom in my chest. A rage like I hadn't felt since I came upon Blake and Caitlin Merriweather propped up against his car. My internal Faith-censor went straight out the window and flew ten miles across the cornfields and exploded in the sky.

Top Ten Authors I'd Love To Have At My Thanksgiving Feast
Oh my gosh!! This is such a fun question, and my answers are in absolutely random order!
1. Susan Mallery. I would love to have her for so many reasons! I think she is genuinely a wonderful person; she is my go-to for feel-good Romance novels. And I always love chatting with her on twitter, she just seem so appreciative of her fans.
2. Stephen King. Again, I am a huge Stephen King fan. But honestly? I would love to have him at my table because I can only imagine the fabulous conversations he would have with my Dad (who I will be sharing Thanksgiving with this year.)
3. Joanne Fluke. Plain and simple, she can bring the dessert. (Seriously, have you read the Hannah Swensen books?? The recipes are DELICIOUS!)
4. Stephanie Perkins. I think she would be the life of the party!
5. Rachel Hawkins. For several reasons, most importantly? I will feed her my yummy Pumpkin Pie and she will be so thankful that she will answer the cliff hanger from Demon Glass!!
6. Sarah Dessen. Because I'm a major Fan Girl!
7. Ellen Degeneres. Hey; this counts because she's written several memoirs. (Ok; so she probably had a ghost writer. But still. Who wouldn't want Ellen over for Thanksgiving?
8. Kathleen Flinn. Ok, I'll be honest. I want her to COOK the Thanksgiving dinner! (The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry and The Kitchen Counter Cooking School.)
9. Richelle Mead. This is another purely for the fan girl in me.
10. Mark Twain. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is my favorite book. Ever. (Of course, I would prefer a living version; so with time travel not being in existence? Well, this will just have to be a fantasy!)
(Now; on a different note? I sort of wish this question had been "What Characters" because that list would have been EASY PEASY!! )

Stephanie Perkins would be awesome. I'd bring Meg Cabot along too. She's hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI love the imagery of that teaser! The book looks pretty good, and it might end up on my TBR pile Shame, shame for adding to my ever growing pile!! ^___~

ReplyDeleteHere’s my Teaser Tuesday post. :)
My Top Ten post is the one directly before that. I've only heard of a few of your choices... :)
I like about the faith censor leaving--interesting description!
ReplyDeleteOut of your top 10 authors, I'm only familiar with Stephen King (who I wouldn't invite) and Mark Twain. Mark Twain is a great choice, except for the fact he's dead. Have you read his autobiography? It's really thick but I'm still considering it.
Here's ours: http://ourstack.blogspot.com/2011/11/tuesday-teasers-dear-bully-and-mudbound.html
Oh gosh Mark Twain! Awesome choice!
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday!

I can't believe I totally forgot about one of my favorite authors, Mark Twain, in my list! And yes, of course Stephen King, and Ellen Degeneres was a good idea. There would be tons of laughs with her! :)
