8 Authors Whose Twitter Feeds Are Just as Great as Their Books
Twitter is great for celebrities. It's the perfect way to keep in touch with their fans while also showing everyone they're normal people. You probably already follow Harry Styles for his strange observations of the world and Anna Kendrick for her constant hilarity, but there may be a group you've been seriously missing out on.
If you're a book nerd (we're guilty as charged), there's another set of famous people you should be keeping tabs on: the authors of your favorite books. You might not have thought about it until now, and that's exactly why we put together a handy list of writers who are just as entertaining as your favorite pop stars. Click through and get following!

If you have questions about Harry Potter (and honestly, how could you not?) J.K.'s constantly answering them on Twitter. Plus, it's kind of like following a cool aunt who's responsible for inspiring your childhood imagination.

John's ridiculously smart, as evidenced in best-selling books like The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns. His Twitter feed is a mix of hilariously nerdy jokes and interesting info you probably (definitely) want to know.

There's no doubt you're already in Dashner's fan club thanks to his book The Maze Runner, but his Twitter account will inspire a whole new level of fandom. Not only is he always retweeting fans who tweet about his work, but he also hilariously weighed in on the Dress Controversy heard 'round the world. It doesn't get much better than that.

We're all #TeamRoth for introducing the Divergent series into our life. But you'll love her even more after reading her Twitter feed, where she discusses wanting Cher Horowitz's virtual closet and more. We hear you.

Stine, upon whose famous book MTV's Eye Candy is based, makes the important distinction between the author and their work. He's most well-known for his horror works, but his feed is mostly comedic observations about everyday things.

We're not saying Forman's If I Stay wasn't a wonderful accomplishment, because that'd be a lie. All we're saying is if she keeps tweeting about her love of British accents and interpretive dance, she's going to shoot to #1 on everyone's feeds.

You probably have Are You There God, It's Me Margaret to thank for getting you through the most awkward years of your pre-teens. And now you'll have Judy Blume, who wrote the book, to thank for the inside look she gives into the writing process.

Chbosky may be famous for writing Perks of Being a Wallflower, but this guy's no wallflower when it comes to keeping his followers in the know. He's always tweeting about cool upcoming literary and comedic events.
