Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. This week’s topic is Authors You Wish Were Still Writing Today. (submitted by Rebecca @ Top100Books).
1. Jane Austen
2. Charlotte Brontë
3. L.M. Montgomery
4. Emily Brontë
5. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
6. George Gordon, Lord Byron
7. Shirley Jackson
8. Bram Stoker
9. James Herriot
10. Louisa May Alcott
As you can see, I am a fan of classics. Do we share any of the same authors?
wings and fables 
I wonder what else . Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley would have written if she had lived longer? Great pick.

Love all the classics! Bronte sisters and Jane Austen especially. I’m still working up the courage to finally read Little Women, but I absolutely loved the movie, so I have a pretty good idea that I’ll love the book, I just can’t seem to stop procrastinating it lol

i totally get it! i personally always have a difficult time picking up books that are on the longer side and tend to procrastinate them haha. i always start thinking about how many other books i could be reading instead of one long one 😅

I think all these authors already have passed away for a long, long while!

I’ve read at least one book by most of these authors, but not all. Happily, I still have lots of books by them to enjoy!
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
