It's the 2012 Debut Author Challenge post! YAY! This is my 3rd year taking part in this fabulous challenge, which is hosted by The Story Siren. I love this challenge. It's such a great opportunity for us to help promote debut authors. You can see our 2010 challenge (we read 38), and our 2011 challenge (to date we've read 86), which is combination of both YA and MG authors.
Here's the list of debs I'm looking forward to reading in 2012:
