YAholics Anonymous! discussion

I've seen a similar version of this game (played with actors) on Facebook and I thought it would be fun to try out here.

First, you'll be given the name of an author (one that has written more than one book) and in a reply, you answer the following questions:

A Book You Loved:
A Book You Hated/Disliked:
Favorite Character the Author Created:

For some authors, you might have read all their books and loved them. In this instance, just put the name of the book you felt was weakest in the "dislike" answer. We'll probably all feel that way about one author or another. :)

After answering the three questions, be sure to post a name of another author so the person below you can reply!

I'll start us off with an easy one:
