Top Ten Books/Authors I'm Thankful For
Top Five Favorite Books
5
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
This book is just pure amazing and is definitely a book every teen should read, and I think everyone can relate to the story.
4
Cinder (Lunar Chronicles, #1)
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
I'm forever grateful to Cinder and Marissa Meyer for an adaptation of Cinderella with Cinderella not being a doormat.
3
Want to Go Private?
Want to go Private? by Sarah Darer Littman
Another one every teen should read, but this as a cautionary tale. What happens in this book is seriously freaky!
2
Witch Eyes (Witch Eyes, #1)
Witch Eyes by Scott Tracey
It never ceases to amaze me that such an awesome book is set in my small town.

Velveteen
Velveteen by Daniel Marks
I'm just thankful for this one because it's so damn epic and was one of my favorite books of the year!
Top Five Authors I'm Thankful For
5
Leah Clifford
Leah Clifford (Author of A Touch Trilogy)
Leah's sarcasm and wit makes me die everyday. Her books aren't half-bad either.
4
Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Clare (Author of The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices)
Some may say her books lack good writing, and sometimes they may be right, but they always provide a good escape.
3
Lauren DeStefano
Lauren Destefano (author of The Chemical Garden Trilogy)
Both of Lauren's books are wonderful! I can't love them enough!
2
Ally Condie
Ally Condie (author of the Matched Trilogy)
Ally has proved to the world that a dystopian can be more poetic then violent!
1
Suzanne Collins
Suzanne Collins (author of The Hunger Games Trilogy)
It's a given.

  5. Cinder is definitely a book I'm thankful for, because I started to understand that I don't hate all sci-fi as much as I thought.

  7. Perks. Holy cow. Excuse me while I die a little bit.

    Also, yes, so true about Condie's poetic-ness.
