Hosted at Literary Escapism by Jackie. I want to keep track of the new authors I read. Last year, I read 51 new authors to me, and 11 debut authors.
Here are the guidelines:
- The challenge will run from January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011.
- Since this is an author challenge, there is no restriction on choosing your novels. They can definitely be from other challenges. However, the authors must be new to you and, preferably from novels.
- You can pick to do either 15, 25 or 50 new authors.
- After reading your new author, write your review and then come back here and add your link to Mr. Linky
Here's the list:
- Kate Morton - The House at Riverton
- Damon Galgut - In a Strange Room
- Angie Abdou - The Bone Cage
- Terry Fallis - The Best Laid Plans
