Authors I'm Excited To Meet At RT Booklovers

Happy Monday to all my fellow readers :)


It's the start of a new week, and it's exactly three weeks from today until we leave for Vegas for RT Booklovers. I did a post a couple of weeks ago on some of the events I'm most excited to attend at the convention, but today I decided to talk about some of the authors I'm so excited to finally get a chance to meet. While I do read a wide spectrum of books, YA is definitely my fave genre, and as such, I'm very excited for the chance to meet so many of the amazing YA authors that are going to be attending this year. It would be way too long of a post for me to possibly list every author I'm looking forward to meeting, but I thought I'd list a few today that are some of my favorites, and talk about more events and authors in a post next week. :)


To start with, I am beyond belief excited to get to meet Richelle Mead. I've fallen head over heels in love with The Vampire Academy and Bloodlines novels, and I'm also anxiously awaiting The Glittering Court. This amazing woman has been behind so many of my favorite books, and I'm anxiously anticipating the chance to get to meet her.


Next would definitely have to be Katie McGarry. Crash Into You remains one of my all time favorite books. I have read it probably an embarrassingly number of times since it's release, and I've loved every other book of hers that I've read. No joke, when RT released the attending author list, and I saw her name on it, I started freaking out to the point that my hubby thought I was having an asthma attack. I will definitely be prioritizing getting a chance to meet her.


Kiera Cass is definitely also on my list of authors that I absolutely have to meet. The Selection series was such an amazing read, and I've loved every book in the series. She also seems so sweet on her various social medias, and I'm excited to get a chance to meet her in person.


Colleen Houck is another author that I've listed as a priority to meet. I personally loved Tiger's Curse, and I'm looking forward to continuing on with more books from her hopefully really soon. She is one of the authors hosting the YA You're Never Too Old For YA party that I talked about in my last RT Post, so I will hopefully have a chance to meet her then.


One of my favorite book series that I've discovered within the last two years is The Shadow Falls series, and it's spin off Shadow Falls After Dark, so I was definitely fangirling over the fact that the author of those amazing series, C.C. Hunter, is going to be appearing at RT as well. I love her books, and can't wait to meet her in person.


Ali Novak is the author of one of my favorite contemporaries, My Life With The Walter Boys, and I actually only found out she was going to be there a couple of weeks ago. I think it's super impressive that she started writing her novel as a teenager, and gained a huge following through Wattpad, and I'm hoping to read her newer novel, The Heartbreakers, before RT, but if not, than definitely soon after.


As I have just recently finished The Kiss of Deception, and completely loved it. I definitely am looking forward to meeting Mary E Pearson :)


The Winner's Curse was a mind blowing book that I definitely had a hard time putting down. I can't wait to meet Marie Rutkoski, and tell her just how much I loved this novel, and how I can't wait to finish the trilogy hopefully soon.


Lastly, considering how much I loved the Lux Series, Jennifer L Armentrout is definitely another author that I don't want to miss out on meeting :)




This is honestly just a sampling of all the authors I'm hoping to have a chance to meet during the six days we will be attending, and I will hopefully find the time to write another post before then on some of the others I'm looking forward to meeting.


Are any of you planning on attending RT this year? If so, which authors are you most excited to meet? Or who have been your fave authors that you've had a chance to meet in the past?


Thanks for reading everyone :) I'll be back on Wednesday with a new Top 5 Wednesday Post.

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books .  For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest...

First Line Friday: The Inheritance

Happy Friday Everyone :) I hope you're all had a great week and that you're staying safe no matter where you are. I haven't been leaving my house much lately other than for work, and because of this, I've had lots of reading time on my hands. Last year my hubby and I took a road trip that included a visit to our favorite bookstore, and we decided to each pick a book that wouldn't be our first choice. The purpose was to try and read something that still interested us, but would maybe be a bit different than what we would typically go for first. My pick ended up being The Inheritance by Michael Phillips, a book I actually ended up being quite excited about, despite never having heard of it prior. Unfortunately, it ended up sitting on my bookshelf ever since, and I'm so thankful I finally got the opportunity to pick it up and start reading it this past week. The Inheritance by Michael Phillips: About the Book: The death of the clan patriarch h...

First Line Friday: Remembering the Cowboy by Mandi Blake

Happy Friday Friends :) There's so many reasons I'm excited that it's once again Friday. I'm excited to be taking part in another edition of First Line Friday hosted by Hoarding Books , but I'm also excited to be featuring one of my favorite author's new releases for this week's edition. First Line Friday simply consists of sharing the first line from the book you're currently reading, and today I'm going to be sharing from Mandi Blake's new book, which released last week. Remembering the Cowboy by Mandi Blake: About the Book: They have unfinished business. She just can’t remember what it is. Camille Vanderbilt is headed back home to Wyoming with one goal: find her old best friend and give him a piece of her mind for ghosting her six years ago. She won’t let anyone stand in her way… until a deer runs into the road and causes her to wreck and forget almost everything. Noah Harding lives a simple life as a firefighter and rancher until Camille cras...
