Happy Tuesday, y’all! This week, Jana from That Artsy Reader Girl is asking us to share a list of authors we’ve met. Sadly, I haven’t met any. I’m not one for author meet-and-greets. Either that, so I find out about them afterward. So instead, this week I’m continuing my alphabet challenge focused on author names. Today, we’ll look at ten “C” author names.
You can find the “A” authors here, and the “B” authors are here. All the authors’ images are from their websites, which are linked to their names. I’ve included a book by the author, too.
Now let’s look at ten “C” author names!
Colleen Cambridge
Colleen Cambridge is the pen name of bestselling author Colleen Gleason. As Colleen Cambridge, she mostly writes historical cozy fiction that fictionalizes real people. The Phyllida Bright mystery series (book 1 is to the right) features Agatha Christie as a side character.
Holly Cassidy
Holly Cassidy is the pen name of bestselling author Hannah Mary McKinnon. You may say that Holly Cassidy is the softer side, as her books are Christmas rom-coms, whereas McKinnon typically writes suspense.
Amanda Chapman
Chapman’s debut novel, Mrs. Christie at the Mystery Guild Library, features a fictionalized Agatha Christie in a fictional library that includes a replica of Christie’s personal library at Greenway.
Jennifer Chevalier
Chevalier’s debut, The Winter Witch, is a well-written and well-researched historical fiction.
Agatha Christie
I’m sure Agatha Christie doesn’t really need an introduction. Her books have sold over a billion copies worldwide. Only Shakespeare and the Holy Bible have sold more.
Jon Clinch
Clinch is best known for writing historical fiction featuring main characters that are often side characters or footnotes in history.
Eoin Colfer
Colfer is best known for the Artemis Fowl series. Most of his books are middle grade fantasy reads. He also has a couple of contemporary middle grade releases.
Jenny Colgan
Colgan is best known for her contemporary romances and women’s fiction set in and around Scotland.
Sophie Cousens
Cousens specializes in contemporary romance with main characters who are not in their 20s.
Marianne Cronin
Cronin has published two novels, both well received. Her style is sure to tug at the heartstrings.
That’s ten authors I’ve read and enjoyed, with “C” names! Have you read any of these authors with “C” names? Are there any “C” author names you would recommend I read?
