OK, I'm a little late, but better late than never, right? I've been looking around for a reading challenge, and this one seems like a lot of fun. It's hosted by Kristi at The Story Siren so head on over there for more details and sign-up info.
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.
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!
Here's the list of books I've chosen to read for this challenge (in no particular order). This list is subject to (probably a lot of) change, since I never seem to stick to a plan!
1. The Body Finder - Kimberly Derting.
2. Hex Hall - Rachel Hawkins.
3. Shadow Hills - Anastasia Hopcus.
4. Guardian of the Dead - Karen Healy.
5. Whisper - Phoebe Kitanidis.
6. Shade - Jeri Smith-Ready
7. Paranormalcy - Kiersten White.
8. Firespell - Chloe Neill.
9. Bleeding Violet - Dia Reeves.
10.Glimmerglass -Jenna Black.
11.Before I Fall - Lauren Oliver.
12.The Tension of Opposites - Kristina McBride.
Wish me luck!

ReplyDeleteNymeth - I got this layout on a free site, and just added some text to the header. :) I think it's pretty too but no way would I be able to design it myself! Not a hope in hell! :-D
