This year has been an amazing year for 2010 Debut Authors, and we really enjoyed taken part in Kristi (The Story Siren's) 2010 Debut Author Challenge. We're looking forward to being apart of the 2011 Debut Author Challenge, as there are so many AWESOME books coming out next year.
In addition to the challenge, we have a lot of awesome things planned with the 2k11 Debut Authors. More details about this will be posted closer to January, but I'm thrilled that we will be working closely with this amazing group of debut authors bringing you reviews, interviews and giveaways with their debut titles.
We have also been busy working on our Debut Author Books Of Month, that we started this last year with our Mundie Moms Book Of The Month Club on our forum. I'm indicating which books we will be our Debut Author book of the month, which will also include live author chats, interviews and hopefully lots of giveaways (depending on when the book is published, some books will be featured the month after their release, giving our book club members time to purchase and read the book).
Here's our list (I know we have a few books missing from it that we will continue to add/ or delete books from this list) for both Mundie Moms and Mundie Kids:
- Our Debut Spotlight Book Of Month for our book club are highlighted in orange.
- The 2K11 Debut Authors we will be featuring on our blog are highlighted in green.
-Books w/ a ** by them are ones we own/have read/will be posting review closer to their release date.
- Debut Authors listed on this challenge are ones who are first time authors or have their first YA or MG book being released this year.
