Few discoveries delight me more than finding someone else’s beloved books list that is markedly similar to my own. Do you feel the same way?
Skimming my list below may give you a better idea of how alike our tastes are!
This first list names off the classics…
Jane Austen
Georgette Heyer
Shakespeare (need I say it?)
Charles Dickens
Lucy Maud Montgomery
Barbara Pym
Ursala LeGuin

The next few authors have brought me hours of reading pleasure and they’re still alive and writing:-):
Mary Kingswood
Sally Britton
Caroline Warfield
Jude Knight
Robin McKinley (except for “Deerskin”)
Jude Morgan
Jennifer Kloester
Here are a few titles that I love, although I don’t necessarily care for other books by the same author:
“A Rose in Winter” by Kathleen Woodiwiss (rather steamy)
Lisa Kleypas’ Hathaway series (rather steamy)
“The Night Circus” by Erin Morgenstern
Anyone else still a fan of your childhood books? Here are mine:
A.A. Milne
Tove Jansson, the Moomin books
Michael Bond’s Paddinton Bear books
Trixie Beldon series
Beatrix Potter
Thornton Burgess’ animal stories

And lastly, here are authors in my “To Be Read” stack that I’m eager to try:
Martha Keyes
Judith Hale Everett

If you think we have similar taste but I’m seriously ignorant of a gem, please tell me! Email: charlotte@charlottebrothersauthor.com
