I don't really have one favorite author. These are some of the adult books I like:
The Girl With All the Gifts by MR Carey (a zombie book like you've never seen before)
Dog Stars by Peter Heller (like The Road, only with more punctuation and more hope)
Domestic Violets by Matthew Norma (as a writer, I'm a sucker for books about writers, especially if they're funny)
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn (twisty as hell)
A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan (a tour de force. In a weird way, this book helped me come to terms with my friend's death)
Life After Life by Kate Atkinson (a great book to read as a writer, and as a human being thinking about the purpose of life)
The Gold Finch by Donna Tartt (I know this was a love it or hate it book - count me in the first camp)
The Girl With All the Gifts by MR Carey (a zombie book like you've never seen before)
Dog Stars by Peter Heller (like The Road, only with more punctuation and more hope)
Domestic Violets by Matthew Norma (as a writer, I'm a sucker for books about writers, especially if they're funny)
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn (twisty as hell)
A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan (a tour de force. In a weird way, this book helped me come to terms with my friend's death)
Life After Life by Kate Atkinson (a great book to read as a writer, and as a human being thinking about the purpose of life)
The Gold Finch by Donna Tartt (I know this was a love it or hate it book - count me in the first camp)
