Top Ten Tuesday: I'd Love To Make Your Acquaintance

As always, this feature is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish
I've been fortunate enough to be able to meet, greet and even spend time with some of my favorite bloggers and authors in the past year. I consider it truly a privilege, and often find myself starstruck or overwhelmed with giddiness. That being said, there are definitely a few more people I'd want to meet, and here's my list of authors and book bloggers that I'd want to hang out with in person.

  1. Hehe. You made my list too, of course! :) I love your idea of doing 10 authors and 10 bloggers. I had a hard time narrowing my list down. I should have just gone for everyone! I've met Marissa Meyer, Sarah J. Maas, and Jessi Kirby. They are all SO sweet, and super nice! You listed so many awesome bloggers, too! I feel so lucky to be a part of such a fun community of people. :)

  2. Dude! I want to meet like, ALL of these people too! Though, I'm kind of scared of JK Rowling. I heard she wasn't the nicest person ever but I don't remember why. O_O

  5. So many people from your list that are on my list, or that I've already met. Jamie = AWESOME. And I agree so much on Lisa, Asheley, and G. And perhaps you and I should run into one another someday, too :)

  7. Aww ... thank you for including me in your list, Alexa! I'd love to meet you! :)

    As for authors -- I think John Green would be on the top of my list. I LOVE HIM! I was lucky enough to meet Veronica Roth, Beth Revis, and Kelley Armstrong, which was super cool and now I want to meet MORE authors!

    I sure wish I could afford to attend some bookish events to meet some bloggers in real life!

    Thanks for sharing!

  16. I feel like if I met Rick Riordan, I'd be on this "How cool is Percy? NO REALLY. How cool is he? No REALLY RICK..." etc.

    Yes! Let's be friends in real life one day okay? Great!
