Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. For the rules see her blog. This week’s topic is Authors Whose Books I’ve Read the Most.
My list is of the authors whose books I’ve read the most since I began my blog. I’ve linked them to their pages on the Fantastic Fiction website. They are a mix of crime fiction and historical fiction.
Why am I not surprised that we share so many in your list? 🙂

Oooo another crime aficionado – but can I call myself that when I am still catching up on Agatha Christie? She comes in at 2 so far lol but The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is my next one and I hear it is great!
And I just realised I forgot Rankin from my list! D’oh!
Great list, thanks for sharing!

I would have to share Agatha Christie, Elly Griffiths and Georges Simenon with you I think. But the author I’ve probably read the most of is Terry Pratchett, followed closely by Anne McCaffrey and Ellis Peters. Oh, Georgette Heyer would have to be in there too.

This is an interesting list. I have enjoyed the du Maurier books I have read but I do need to read more.

I see you like crime stories. I love to watch them on TV (especially the British ones) but haven’t read many. Interesting list.

This is a great list, Margaret! I’d put three or four of them (Christie, Rankin, Griffiths…) on my own Top Ten list. And I need to read more Harris than I have, so thanks for the nudge.

I really need to read one of Agatha Christie’s books someday! Which one would you recommend to a total newbie to her work?

I’ve never read any of Agatha Christie’s work. I really need to! Here is my Top Ten Tuesday.

Great list, Margaret! Several on it that might be on mine – Agatha Christie for sure. Elly Griffiths, Sharon Bolton and Ann Cleeves. And several here that I’ve not ever read, though I’m familiar with them. Ah, always more books to explore.

These are all great authors. Unfortunately, I don’t register my reading, so I couldn’t do the list, but I am sure Christie must be my number one as well. I wouldn’t rule out that Ann Cleeves, Elly Griffiths and Peter Robinson would also make it into Top Ten.

I’ve seen adaptations of most of the Christie novels but have read very few of them. My sister is the Christie fan…
Do you have a favourite out of those authors?

I’ve read a few Daphne du Maurier books. I’m eager to pick up more. My Cousin Rachel is my favorite so far.
