I will buy anything these writers put out, without having read a review, let alone the actual book. In fact, I will probably pre-order it the moment I hear a rumor of something new:
pre-ordered with love
six months out
Billy Collins (heck, I have his new book pre-ordered already and it’s not due out for another six months!)
John Green
David Sedaris (his latest Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls just arrived in the mail today … another pre-order!)
Donald Miller
Jandy Nelson
Who are your auto-buy authors?
JACKIE LEA SOMMERS 
John Green is definitely on my my list, along with Lauren Willig, Alice Munro, Amy Bloom, Maureen Johnson, and Nicole Krauss.
I just purchased “The Name of the Star” by Maureen Johnson … have you read it? Is it good?
Lynn Austin is probably my only auto-buy author… For some reason, I’m more willing to pre-order music as opposed to books (no idea why). I pre-ordered the latest CDs from Michael Buble and Josh Groban months in advance and will do the same for Scotty McCreery.
Which you don’t even need to do– Spotify, child!!!! 🙂
Hahaha, but can I take Spotify with me in the car? 🙂
Touche!!! You’re so right!
I sorta forgot about listening to music in the car … hahaha! It’s been almost straight audiobooks for a couple years now!
I need to start listening to audiobooks…
