This is my first time to participate to an established book meme and I am really excited to do the Top Ten Tuesday hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
I know this post was scheduled for August 11, last Tuesday, but I still want to do this this week. (I hope it’s okay. :))

Absolutely! He’s such a genius crime/mystery writer! Though his ‘love-themed’ novels are quite good as well. 🙂

I’ve read a lot of those authors as well, but only Tahereh Mafi and Nicholas Sparks made it on my list. It turned out that there were a looooot of authors I read 3 or 4 books from, so I couldn’t choose them all hahaha

Oooh. Do you read the book first? Or you watch the movie first?

Always the book first. I think I have all the books of his movie adaptations except for Nights in Rodhante because I watched the movie before I saw the book in shops.

Maybe Someday has to be my fav from Colleen though then Slammed then Hopeless. I’m so excited for the Ugly Love movie!!!! Nick Bateman is a hottie ❤ And from Tahereh my fav was Ignite Me cause Warner and Juliette moments killed me. AHHH. Just thinking about it makes me extremely happy though the end left me wanting more. I need a fourth book! and Kiera, The One! Maxerica is life. I didn't like the Heir as much as I hoped though… what about you? 🙂

I haven’t read those Colleen books yet. 🙂 I will include them in my TBR, though.
We actually have the same thoughts with The Heir. It was just below my expectation. The story is just so spoiled-brat-ish. I hope you get me. 😀
