Top 5 Favorite Authors (Based on Skill)

 Hello, all! I've been thinking long and hard about this, and I've finally decided on five authors who deserve to be on the Top 5 list of best authors based on skill. These are the authors whose writing, world-building, character development, and ideas exceed all others. Hope you enjoy! 5. Heather Fawcett (Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries) This author's skill at writing is incredible! Her fantasy works in the Emily Wilde series are so enjoyable to read, and the characters make me laugh out loud.  4. Suzanne Collins (The Hunger Games) Wow! This author's insight into the minds of her characters is amazing, and her writing is so powerful! Not only that, but her young adult series The Hunger Games has been cherished for over a decade.  3. Marissa Meyer (Cinder) Okay, this author seems to know exactly what her audience wants, because her unique worlds, intriguing plots, and wonderful characters that you can't help rooting for are such a treat to read.

The Summer We Forgot

Image
  The Summer We Forgot By Caroline George The Summer We Forgot synopsis: Some memories are better left forgotten. Darby and Morgan haven't spoken for two years, and their friend group has splintered. But when the body of their former science teacher is found in the marsh where they attended camp that summer, they realize they have more questions than answers... and even fewer memories. No one remembers- or no one is talking. The group of reunited friends begins to suspect that a murderer is stalking the coastal highway 30A, and they must try to recover their memories as quickly as possible... before the history they can't remember repeats itself. Everyone has a secret. As tensions rise and time runs out, Darby and Morgan begin to wonder if they can believe one another... or if they can even trust themselves. -From g oodreads.com If someone were to ask me to write an essay about the author I think is the best at what they do, I would have enough words about Caroline George to wr...
