    I'm scared to invite my beloved authors to lunch. I'd have to think of one that would be kind enough not to intimidate me! Maybe Madeleine L'Engle? As for a fictional setting, Diagon Alley is a great choice, but I could not pass up the chance for a voyage on the Dawn Treader...

      The Dawn Treader is a great choice. Especially if Reepicheep is there. :)

    A great list! I was just thinking how much I'd love browsing Diagon Alley - but then I saw the mention of Reepicheep, and now I'm torn :) And you've got me thinking about my answers. I think my favorite author to lunch would be Dorothy Dunnett, because Jane Austen & Dorothy L. Sayers would intimidate the heck out of me. But Peter Wimsey would be on my list of romantic partners!

      Good choices! I know what you mean about certain authors being too intimidating to lunch with. :)

    Hmmm... I am trying to just go with my first responses here and not overthink it...so I am going to say 1) Laura Ingalls Wilder (second choice..Maeve Binchy), 2) Lucky Starr Space Ranger 3) Elizabeth Bennett, 4) tough choices...I love the thought of Diagon Alley too, but I think I would choose the Star Wars universe as a setting I would like to visit...maybe a trip to Tattooine or Naboo by that lake...5) Mike Flannigan
    Great quiz!!! Got me thinking.
