2011 Debut Author Challenge


The Story Siren is calling out readers to accept her challenge and I for one am willing to rise to the expectations. I think this will encourage me to experience new things and not just keep reading the same authors I love. I'll also keep Reading Lark readers updated on my progress. I also encourage our readers to try this out for themselves! So, how does it work? Here's the deal:



2011 Debut Author Challenge participant information:

  • 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. Deadline to join is November 20, 2011. (not 2010 you still have PLENTY of time to sign up!) The challenge runs from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.

Qualifying books:

  • Books must be a Young Adult or Middle Grade novel.

  • DO NOTE: Just because a book has a teen character or is about a teen, does not mean that it is necessarily a Young Adult novel.

  • This must be the authors debut with a release date in 2011.
  • If an author has a previous novel published under adult fiction/nonfiction or children's fiction/nonfiction, they can still qualify for the challenge if they are releasing their YA or MG debut.

Andrea's List:
Stay tuned for my list. I am still unsure of what I will be reading!
