I'm really excited to be participating in the 2011 Debut Author Challenge next year. I'm a challenge first-timer and can't wait to dive in to some fabulous books! Below is some basic information about the challenge, but you can find full details at The Story Siren as Kristi is hosting the event.
- The objective of the DAC is to read at least twelve novels from Young Adult or Middle Grade Authors. While twelve is the minimum there is no maximum limit! I encourage readers who can read more than twelve to do so!
- Anyone can join. You don't have to be a blogger, and you don't have to live in the United States.
- You do not have to have an blog written in English to participate.
- You can join at anytime. The challenge runs from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.
Here is a list of the books I'm hoping to read each month for the challenge. More will be added I'm sure!
