Book Blogger Hop (2)

Book Blogger Hop
The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by crazy-for-books and is great for checking out new blogs and seeing what is up in the book blogging world. 

This Week's Question:
 Who is your favorite new-to-you author so far this year?

This is a hard one because there is two that I was introduced to this year that both write amazing books. I think I'll just talk about both. First there is Maggie Stiefvater. I got Shiver from a book club me and my friends have and I fell in love. Then about a month late, luckily for me, Linger came out and I fell in love again. Her writing draws you in and the guy characters she writes, wow. Secondly there is Holly Black. I had heard such wonderful things about White Cat and when I got it, I dropped the book I was reading for school and sat down and read it. I was not dissapointed. There is so much suspense and the idea of the book is so great and you wonder how someone can come up with it.


So What Do you think of these authors and what author(s) is your favorite new-to-you author?
