I was ten when my mother's friend lend her a Barbara Cartland book with a title 'An Arrow of Love'. The way she had written the novel was very realistic. It was as if i was watching the scene in my mind while reading it. The story was so friendly for a very young reader as myself and it even made me wish to be as brave as the female lead.

Hi May. Welcome to mylot. Enjoy.
I have lots of favorite authors. I am actually not after them. I am after the books they made.

Hi May, welcome to myLot. I'm also here less than 24 hours, but I'm getting the hang of things and it's a lot of fun!
With reference to your question, I do not have a specific author that I love the most, I am a voracious reader, I've been a book lover for as far back as I can remember. At one point in time, when I was a little girl, my mom would buy me Archie comics and simplified, age appropriate versions of the Charles' Dickens books, and I would read those of course, and I loved them, but then I would steal her Harlequin and Mills & Boons books and hide under my bed sheets to read the steamy parts.
Today, it would be difficult to sit down and pick just one author or book. I like works of fiction, but after that it doesn't matter the genre. I like to be able to take up a book and start to read and immediately feel like I am walking alongside the author or the protagonist on every page. I liked JRR Tolkien, Suzanne Collins, Maya Angelou, Jodi Piccoult, Ken Follett, JK Rowling, John Green, Victoria Aveyard... the list is exhaustive. I don't do favorites. I don't tie myself to a brand, I just like quality literature... after that it doesn't matter.
