What is the 2010 Debut Author Challenge?
- The objective is to read a set number of YA (Young Adult) or MG (Middle Grade) novels from debut authors published this year. I'm going to challenge everyone to read at least 12 debut novels! You don’t have to list your choices right away, but if you do feel free to change them throughout the year. I will also be focusing on mostly Young Adult novels.
- Anyone can join, you don’t need a blog to participate. If you don’t have a blog you can always share your views by posting a review on Amazon.com/BarnesandNoble.com/GoodReads/Shelfari, or any other bookish site.
- The challenge will run from January 1, 2010- December 31, 2010. You can join at anytime!
Hosted by The Story Siren. This challenge sounds amazing! There are so many novels being released by 2010 debut authors that I cannot wait to get my hands on. I am so excited to start this challenge.
I hope to read a minimum 30. But I am hoping that as 2010 rolls on, I will be able to make that number much higher. There truly are so many great novels to look forward to in 2010. Here is my list of must reads thus far (in no particular order):
