\"\"<\/a>Way back in December of\u00a02011<\/a>\u00a0(and again every other December since), we’ve taken a look at the authors I have read the most, dating back to high school.\u00a0 This year, since I’ve far surpassed my reading output of any year on record, I thought it would be nice to take a deeper dive into those books I’ve read through August. Since our last check-in, I\u2019ve read an additional 60 books from 54 different authors. There shouldn\u2019t be much movement over the past 2 years, but it\u2019s time to take another look and see if my \u201cfavorite\u201d authors have changed much in that time span.\u00a0 Today, we continue with the 2 authors I’ve read 7 times.<\/p>\n

Airframe – Michael Crichton<\/p><\/div>\n

Michael Crichton<\/strong><\/p>\n

The prolific author, who died in 2008, first entered my bookshelf in 1989, when I was assigned to read The Andromeda Strain<\/em> as part of my high school Biology class.\u00a0 He continued to be a big part of my 90s reading, but has only added a single title, Airframe<\/em>, in this century.<\/p>\n

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows – J.K. Rowling<\/p><\/div>\n

J.K. Rowling<\/strong><\/p>\n

All seven entries in the Harry Potter series, which I read in 2016, make up Rowling’s total.\u00a0 She continues to write under a pen name, so she may, one day, end up on this list twice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
