BTT: 5 for Favourites

1. Do you have a favorite author?Aw, come on, you can't really expect me to answer that, can you? If I had to narrow the list down, I'd have to go: Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, and Jodi Picoult.
2. Have you read everything he or she has written?
I've read everything Jodi Picoult has written up till her very latest novel, Change of Heart - and even that's only for completely anal reasons. I can't bring myself to buy the book (or borrow/read) until it is rereleased in the same edition as all the others that I have... I can't help it, they need to be the same.
As for Gaiman and Pratchett - no I haven't, but they're reasonably new 'favourites' and I'm working my way through them gradually.

3. Did you LIKE everything?
I haven't come across a book of hers that I haven't liked, but there are some that I'm not as fond of as others. Harvesting the Heart and Mercy are the ones I like the least.

4. How about a least favorite author?Didn't particularly like Patrick White (though I've only read the one book, Voss), and am not a huge fan of Bryce Courtney (though I liked Sylvia)... hmm, I suppose I'm not really one to go to extremes; again, I have ones that I don't like as much as others, but none I particularly dislike.
5. An author you wanted to like, but didn’t?
I'm pretty boring today, I'm afraid - I can't really think of one for this question either.
