So many to choose from. If I’m picking my favorites I would have to say Maggie Stiefvater, Charlie Holmberg, and JK Rowling.

I'd say Sarah J Maas is my favourite YA author. It took me a while to get into both the Throne of Glass series and A Court of Thorns and Roses, but now I'm absolutely hooked on them.

Rick Riordan is my favorite. (He's also my favorite author in general...) James Dashner is a close second for me.

I'm a teen librarian and I'm on my state teen book award committee, so this is such a hard question for me to answer. Currently, my favorite YA author is A.S. King, but when I do reader's advisory for teens/tweens/parents that come in and ask that question, I turn it back to them, because what I like and what they like is going to be pretty different most likely.

My favourite is definitely Morgan Matson. Amy & Roger's Epic Detour still stands out as one of my favorites and I reread it every chance I get.

Veronica Roth is my favourite! I love her writing style and she's so good at writing characters. Her stories have made as much of an impact on me as the Harry Potter ones did!

I have two actually: Julie Buxbaum and Abbi Glines. I got into Julie's books recently with "Tell Me Three Things." My face was constantly in the book and I am currently waiting on two more of her books to be delivered to me. "The Field Party" currently consists of 5 books in the series and is written by Abbi Glines. I had ordered the first four and finished in less than a month, and I am waiting on the 5th to be released. I love both of their styles of writing and I hope to find more authors with the same style as them!

Oh, it's definitely a tie between these three authors:

Holly Bourne, Krystal Sutherland and Sara Barnard :techie-studyinggray:

My favourite books from them are, respectively: The Manifesto On How To Be Interesting, Our Chemical Hearts, and Fierce Fragile Hearts. :techie-reference:
