I can't think of any authors that I have read every book of, but the ones that come close were some I read back in my younger years :
Phyllis Whitney and Victoria Holt. I probably read almost all of their books .
I read tons of Nancy Drew when I was younger than that,so I'll include those .
I guess another more recent one would be Maeve Binchy. I've read quite a few of hers, but not all the newer ones . I guess I should read the rest, shouldn't I ?

Orson Scott Card was this for me, but he crashed off his pedestal so hard with his hardline against gay rights that now I won't touch anything he's written. And since then, I've found that I don't really care to read everything by any author. I absolutely adore Kameron Hurley as an essayist, but couldn't get into her fiction. I don't have any interest in Jane Austen's Juvenilia. Stephen King has good books and bad. John Scalzi has good books and mediocre.

I understand the impulse towards sticking with familiar authors (which is my husband's preference). But unless I'm having a spell where I'm too brain tired to experiment, I want new new new.

My favorites are Nora Roberts, John Grisham and Nicholas Sparks.
