It’s Top Ten Tuesday again and this week, The Broke and the Bookish put the spotlight on the people behind the words, the authors!
October 13: Top Ten Author Duos You’d LOVE To See Write A Book Together
This will take a lot of time but I will try to do it quick! 😀
So here are the duos that I would love to see, hopefully!
1. Kiera Cass + Colleen Hoover = Fairytalish and suspense/mystery YA
2. Rainbow Rowell + Graeme Simsion = Ultimate book with odd yet lovable characters
3. Anthony Doerr + Alice Walker = Ultimate historical fiction
4. Alice Sebold + Jojo Moyes = Ultimate tearjerker
5. Stephen King + James Patterson = Ultimate sci-fi mystery thriller
6. Jodi Picoult + Liane Moriarty = Ultimate mystery/romance/family novel
7. E. Lockhart + Gillian Flynn = Ultimately ‘insane’ story
8. Paulo Coelho + Markus Zusak = Ultimate inspiring and spiritually deep novel
9. Gayle Forman + Robert Galbraith = Ultimate love and mystery thriller
10. Mitch Albom + Nicholas Sparks = THE BEST NOVEL EVER! 😀 ❤ (Sorry for fangirling!)
That’s it!
Share your thoughts to me, please! 😀
And your links, too!

Quick question, you know Robert Galbreth is JK Rowling new pen name ?
LikeLiked by 1 person
YES! But I didn’t know that when I first read Robert’s first novel, The Cuckoo’s Calling.
And the irony here is that I never ever read or watched any Potter novels/movies.
😀
Why did you ask?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Because it is also the name of a famous economist. When I so the book for the first time, I had a doubt it was a fake name but I did not know JKR used it.
Did you enjoy the book ? By the way, if you ever find time, I highly recommend reading Harry Potter books. But there are seven of them….

Really? An economist? I didn’t know that! Haha
Yes! I love the book and I am looking forward to it.
Hmmm…. I really don’t know what’s keeping me from trying a Harry Potter book…

King and Patterson could write something cool. But I hear King isn’t a fan of Patterson. Cool list.

Love your list! Doerr and Walker would write a neat novel! And I the idea of Albom and Sparks getting together to write a novel. It would be beautiful and heartbreaking and awesome. Thanks for sharing!

I still haven’t read Eleanor and Park yet but I loved The Rosie Project.. and I can kind of see them blending well together 🙂 And ugh, E. Lockhart and Gillian Flynn would write the most insane, unreliable narrator ever. I don’t know if I’d be able to deal.
