Usually the first person out of my mouth would be Nicholas Sparks but lately I've done more branching out and have read better work. He is still one of my favorites but he is just lower down on the list.

At the moment it's Maggie Stiefvater, purely because she gives so much in blog posts and describes what it's like to be an author.

I love John Steinbeck! Particularly after reading Of Mice and Men.

Of Mice and Men is lovely, I had to read it for school. Have you seen the movie too?

It wasn't part of required reading for me, but I'm glad I read it on my own time. I haven't seen the movie, should I?

I don't know, it depends if you love or hate books that turn into movies. We watched it at school after we read the book and it did the book justice. But I don't mind books turning into movies. :)

I loved both the book and movie version of What's Eating Gilbert Grape!
