Top Ten Tuesday: Authors I’d love to meet

Happy Top Ten Tuesday! Today’s theme is authors I’d love to meet! I am such an awkward person that I feel like I’d be a walking disaster around any author I met. I nearly fell over in the street when I walked past Brendan Kiely. I met Claire Legrand and could barely say hello without fainting. When an author so much as follows me on Twitter, I have some palpitations. But, for the sake of this prompt, let’s assume that I’d somehow be a charming and eloquent version of myself for once. 🙂

1️⃣ Jenn Bennett writes the most adorable YA romances and I would just love to meet her. 😭❤️
2️⃣ Krista & Becca Ritchie have written some of my favorite characters ever! How do they do it?! I need to ask!
3️⃣ R.S. Grey is my favorite new adult author and I just want to know if she’s as funny in person as she is in her books.

4️⃣ I would love to just have a conversation with Rainbow Rowell. It could be like three sentences and I’d be satisfied. I just have this feeling that she’d be super nice and super cool.
5️⃣ Libba Bray has been one of my favorite authors since I was in high school, so I would love to meet her someday!
6️⃣ Tana French, mostly so I can figure out once and for all whether she actually knows my mom’s boss.
7️⃣ Laura Steven is one of the funniest people I follow on Twitter and I feel like we could be best friends.

8️⃣ Jay Kristoff… do I really need to explain? I mean, do you follow him on Instagram? Or Twitter? Or anywhere? How much fun would he be???
9️⃣ I love everything that Becky Albertalli writes, so clearly I just need to meet her.
🔟 Shaun David Hutchinson just seems so down-to-earth, and he’s always talking on Twitter about music and I feel like we have similar tastes. Maybe we can go to a concert together.
