Weeeeeeell...it's either Trenton Lee Stuart, Jenny Nimmo, Stephenie Meyer, Jay Asher, Ann Martin, Margret Perterson Hagret, Blue Balliet, Bruce something or other, and Roald Dahl.
Sarah Waters. She keeps me utterly transfixed to the page like no other author. Fingersmith in particular is just well brilliant. She's one of the best storytellers around at the moment.
Philip Pullman always blows me away with his writing and stories. He definitely made me obsessed. Jeff Lindsay the author of Dexter is great too. He's really quirky and off-centre, he makes you love a serial killer. That's talent.
Her books cheer me up no matter what mood I'm in! and her books have a certain poetic flow to them, makes you feel cozy. I love it!
I'm also partial to Ian Mckewen.
