What Author Stephenie Meyer Reads When She's Not Writing Twilight

Everyone knows Stephenie Meyer as the uber-famous, best-selling author of The Twilight Saga books. But when she's not busy turning out her next tale of Bella and Edward's true love, Meyer has her own list of favorite authors and bedtime reads.  And she has way more than vampires on the brain.

"I did discover one really wonderful two-book series," Meyer wrote on her website www.stepheniemeyer.com "Dreamhunter and Dreamquake by Elizabeth Knox. It's like nothing else I've ever read."

Meyer is also a fan of author Suzanne Collins' work.

"I also got an early look at a book I've been eagerly awaiting: Catching Fire, the sequel to Suzanne Collins' phenomenal The Hunger Games. It not only lived up to my high expectations, it surpassed them. It's just as

exciting as The Hunger Games, but even more gut wrenching, because you already know these characters, you've already suffered with them. Suzanne takes the story places I wasn't expecting, and she's never

afraid to take it to very hard places. Stunning. You won't sleep when you're reading this one. It hits shelves September 1st."
