2013 Debut Author Challenge

I am totally going to be participating in the Debut Author Challenge over at hobbitsies.net for 2013. This will be my third time to sign up for it. I love reading books by debut authors. Every year, I find a few that are sure to become new favorites.

The goal is to read at least 12 YA debuts in 2013. I think that I can manage that pretty easily. I'd like to shoot for closer to 20 debuts, but I also want to work on getting the unread books that I already own read, so we'll see how it goes!

I'm sure that this list will get longer the more I look through catalogs and add the autumn books to it, but these are some of the debuts that I'm looking forward to (possibly) reading as part of this challenge:
