TEN AUTHORS CROWDING MY BOOKSHELVES
This was a fun topic – from which authors do I own the most books? Fun, because until I started looking at my shelves and Kindle and Audible account, I didn’t know all of the authors who would make this list. My rules for making this list – I didn’t include any ARCs, and I did include e-books and audiobooks. If I own a book in various formats, I counted all of them.
George R.R. Martin

Yay Mira Grant! Also…..what version/country are those Harry Potter hardcovers from? Because I have never seen them and THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL! Also, I love how you own like 3 copies of each Hunger Games book. That makes me smile!

This is the Harry Potter “Signature Edition” set, published by Bloomsbury. The books came in a really cute box, too.
Amy
Can I just say, I am so jealous of your Harry Potter books! They look so neat and the same and beautiful! Agh.

Stephanie
They look neat, because so far, they are untouched! I keep resolving to read them, but it hasn’t happened yet.
Chrissi Reads
Ooh I didn’t think to include Kasie West, but I do have a lot of her books! Great list.

Thank you, Chrissi! I don’t normally like to have duplicates of physical books, but that paperback of Pivot Point is personalized, so I can’t give it up.
Deb Nance at Readerbuzz
You formatted this beautifully.
And it was a bit of a surprise, I think, to see who was on my shelves!
Here’s my Ten Authors Who Live Happily on My Shelves!

Thank you, Deb! This post took more time to put together than I’d anticipated. 🙂
Monique @Mo_Books
Great list! You have an impressive collection. We have a couple of matches =D
I love your paperback copies of the Hunger Games, I’ve never seen those covers before.

I love those Hunger Games paperbacks, too. I certainly didn’t NEED them, but I HAD to buy them. These are the Scholastic UK paperbacks.
Lianne @ caffeinatedlife.net
Great list! Your list just reminded me that GRRM should’ve made it on my list this week as I own 6 of his books, lol…

It’s easy to forget, isn’t it? I’m sure there are some authors that I missed, too, especially because I have a lot of Kindle books.

I have the old Scholastic Harry Potter covers. I like the “old school” look of yours. =)
Stephanie
Thanks! I still have not read the HP books yet. When I decided to buy a set last year, there were so many options to choose from!
Madigan
I’m kinda jealous of your foil-cover Hunger Games paperbacks!

I love the look of those covers, but the only problem is that they are so easily damaged. In fact, the first set I received I had to return because they were so banged-up. The foil has a thin plastic covering over it, and it was separated in lots of places. (Plus, there were lots of bent pages and covers that happened during the shipping process. The replacement set wasn’t perfect, but I decided not to complain again. 🙂

Great list! And actual exact numbers?! I am impressed by your organization skills.
