Meg Cabot Author of The Princess Diaries Series, Size 12 is Not Fat etc. Genre: Young Adult, Adult, Historical Romance Meg Cabot is always a joy to read. She knows how to deliver a solid book, however many of her books are beginning to be repetitive. With over 30 books published, its a wonder she can continue writing without overlapping any idea. I enjoyed a majority of her books except for the Princess Diaries Series. However, because she has 30 books publish, I hope that she will come out with a different book that doesn't have the typical "Meg Cabot" writing style. I am excited to see how her first sci-fi book will have turned out. Cornelia Funke Author of Dragon Rider, Inkheart, Inkspell, Thief Lord, etc Genre: Young Adult, Fantasy A German author, who I haven't been too impressed. Her writing is inconsistent and sometimes confusing. I loved Inkheart, it is has been on my favorite books-shelf since it came out in 2005. I was thrilled with how intriguing Inkheart was and once finished, I looked up her other books on amazon.com. When I learned that Inkheart would have a sequel I did a little dance, but it didn't live up to the expectation of the first book. In fact, I became confused and almost didn't finish the book. I like to believe that she will become more consistent later on, I just have one request, stop writing Inkheart books, because she kills it even more every time a new book of the series comes out. She is often referred to as the "German J.K. Rowling" but I don't see that at all. | Anthony Horowitz Author of Alex Rider Series & The Diamond Brother Series, Groosham Grange Genre: Young Adult, Adult, Action Another British author that I was relatively impressed with. I have only read the Alex Rider Series and they were mediorce. A perfect balance between his double life and his real life, I was hoping for a little more connectable characters than the ones in the book. I have not read any of his adult novels yet so I don't know how they are, but his young adult books are mediorce and need a little more work. Louis Sachar Author of Holes, Sideway Stories from Wayside etc Genre: Children, Young Adults |
