  3. George R.R. Martin – the next ASong of Ice and Fire being published seems the least likely from the 3 titles I’ve mentioned so far, doesn’t it? I’ve postponed reading the rest of the series (I’m on book 3) for that very reason; <\/li>\n\n\n\n

  7. Haruki Murakami – I’m yet to read his latest novel, but I’d be happy to see the announcement for another novel; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Kazuo Ishiguro – I’ve read all of his published works and would love to read some more; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Jane Austen – because I wish I had more books of hers to read; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Johanna Spyri – as she’s the author of my all time favorite book Heidi. <\/li>\n<\/ol>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
