Booking through Thursday - Authors to Note


Today’s Booking Through Thursday post asks you about your favorite (and least favorite) authors!
1. Do you have a favorite author?
Just one? I guess if I was stranded for the rest of my life with only one author to read, I'd take James David Duncan with me because I don't think I would grow tired of reading him.
2. Have you read everything he or she has written?
Yes, though I didn't finish The Brothers K....yet.
3. Did you LIKE everything?
Pretty much; he's a writer I like to read for his skill over his content (which is why I haven't finished Brothers K.)
4. How about a least favorite author?
Darn near everything I read in the first half of my American Literature class in college.
5. An author you wanted to like, but didn’t?
Everytime I see a Louise Erdich novel I think I need to give her another chance, but even the bargain books at Goodwill quench my temptation.

  1. G - I thought about Duncan too. I sure wish he'd finish that novel he's working on.

    What of Erdrich have you read?

  2. Beet Queen was a real bummer for me; haven't read her since.
