How many authors are you up to date with, as far as having read all their books?


Do you work toward this with certain authors, either out of enthusiasm for their writing, or as a way to exert a bit of mastery over a run-away TBR list?


Do you have a list of authors to zero in on and catch up with before the end of the year?

Can't count how many authors I'm caught up with but here's a list of what my brain remembers:

Robert Crais
Loren Estleman
Sue Grafton
Earlene Fowler
Rick Riordan
James Lee Burke
Janet Evanovich
Jennifer Crusie
Robert B. Parker
Ace Atkins
Ashley Gardner

And I work towards it with definite enthusiasm for the writers. Some of the writers to catch up with are J.A. Jance, Michael Connelly, Cleo Coyle, Lillian Fischer Hellman, Jane Jakeman...just a few.

I know I've read everything by Nicholas Sparks and I'm pretty sure I am also up to date with Richard Paul Evans.

I don't think I'm caught up with any. Here's the few that I'm almost caught up with:


-Faye Kellerman-just have the new one
-Nicholas Sparks-2 more
-Jennifer Weiner-1 more, this one wasn't hard since she only has the 4 books!
-Barbara Delinsky-I don't know how many more

I *was* caught up with John Saul, until he came out with a new book... either last month or the month before.

The only ones that come to mind are Stephen King and Dean Koontz.

There are probably quite a few Koontz books out there that you (and I) haven't read, Ann, but the price
