Top Ten Tuesday: Auto-Buy Authors

Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday!  This week is about Auto-Buy Authors.  I have to admit this topic was a little challenging for me as I seldom automatically buy books without learning a bit about them first.  If I like the sound of the blurb or if a trusted friend and/or reviewer has recommended the book, I’ll consider buying it.  However, the authors on my list are exceptions.  I’ve immensely enjoyed their books in the past and would most likely pick up their back list and/or future works.  Here’s my list in no particular order!

Patricia Briggs-I’ve said it many times, but I’m going to say it again.  I absolutely love her Mercy Thompson series, and I pre-order the books.  I definitely need to read some of her other work.

Karen Chance-I always pre-order the Cassandra Palmer series and as well as the Dorina Basarab series. Unfortunately, I’m extremely behind in both.  The books are sitting on my shelf begging to be read!

Bernard Cornwell-I recently read the first two books in his Saxon Stories series.  I loved them!  I can’t wait to read more in the series, and I’ll certainly be looking into Mr. Cornwell’s other works as well.

C.S. Feldman-I discovered Ms. Feldman here at Long and Short Reviews.  Her Heroes for Hire series is excellent!  I can’t wait for the next installment.

Beth Trissel-Ms. Trissel is another author I discovered here.  She writes wonderful historical romance!

Ruth Goodman-I loved her book How to Be Victorian.  I’d gladly pick up any of her other books.

Ree Drummond– Whenever she writes a new cookbook, I pre-order it.  Her Charlie the Ranch Dog books are pretty cute too!

Robin McKinley-This was a tough call for me.  As much as I enjoyed Beauty, The Blue Sword, The Hero and the Crown, and Sunshine, I haven’t enjoyed some of her other works quite as much.  However, I decided to go ahead and include her because I still have a tendency to pick up her books when I have the chance.  More often than not, I enjoy them.

Christopher Hansen and J.R. Fehr-This writing team is behind The Magician’s Workshop series.  I was captivated by the first two volumes and am anxiously awaiting volume three!

What do you think?  Do you read work by any of these authors?  Are any of them auto-buys?  Who are your auto-buy authors?

  1. Great list! I really need to give the Mercy Thompson books a try, they sound so up my street when I’m in the mood for some urban fantasy.

  2. I really like Cassandra Palmer! And Bernard Cornwell’s Sharpe series is excellent!

  3. Cornwell has been recommended to me several times, because of my love for Anglo-Saxon England. Some day, when I run out of non-fiction, his work will be at the top of my list!

  4. I’m rather intrigued by the writing team of Hansen & Fehr- Magicians workshop sounds very interesting!

      The Mercy Thompson series is great! I’m a tad behind in it, but it is definitely one of my all time favorite series.

    • Poinsettia says

      I know what you mean! I need more time to read as well.

      You’ll have to let me know what you think if you check any of these authors out.

  15. I’ve just started in on Briggs – and I have a feeling she’s going to become an auto buy author for me too. 🙂

    • Poinsettia says

      She is great! I’m glad you’re enjoying her books so far.

      There were lists with authors I’d never heard of either. It just gives me more to investigate!

      Thanks for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  17. Yeah, there aren’t many authors whose books I would buy without even knowing what they were about first. I haven’t read any from your list. So many books, so little time …

    Happy TTT!

      I agree. I need more time to read! My tbr is ridiculously long.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting. 🙂

  18. Oh I’ve come across two Charlie the Ranch Dog books once. I don’t have my own copies though since I’ve read them at my school’s library. I just picked them up because the pup on the cover was cute.

  19. Oooh, more than a couple authors here I didn’t know! I love this TTT so many new authors to find!

    • Poinsettia says

      Yes! I found a lot of new authors to check out too. My tbr grows every week!

      Thank you for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  20. Interesting list! I’ve seen Bernard Cornwell on a few lists this week, so I think I need to look up his work!

    • Poinsettia says

      I’m glad you enjoyed my list!

      If you read any of Bernard Cornwell’s work, you’ll have to let me know what you think.

  21. I heard so much good about Patricia Briggs, I need to check out her books for sure!

    • Poinsettia says

      If you get a chance to read some of her work, you’ll have to let me know what you think!

  22. I STILL need to start Patricia Briggs books. I swear I have a book on my shelves but I was kind of deflated by my eagerness because the dutch publisher stopped translating 🙁

    • Poinsettia says

      Oh no! Well, if you ever do get the chance to read some of her books, I hope you enjoy them and I hope you let me know what you think!

      Thank you for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  23. I think we own one of Ree’s cookbooks, and she is often in Food Network. Seems like a cool person, and if the rumored movie about her story is ever made, I’d 100% go see it!

    I’ve heard lots of things about Robin McKinley, but never read one of her books. Someday… 😀

    Thanks so much for the Finding Wonderland visit last week.

    • Poinsettia says

      You’re welcome!

      I think Ree seems like a really fun person too. I’d love the chance to meet her someday! I didn’t know there were rumors about a movie! I would definitely see that as well.

      Thank you for visiting and commenting. 🙂

  24. I haven’t heard of most of these authors!! I guess I have some researching to do. Thanks for all the recommendations!
