More will probably be added. Or maybe not... =] And, I will pick and choose, and not read them in that order.

Good luck to all who enter! (And yes, I know that it's already half way through the year...) =]

*UPDATE: I think I failed... I'm not going to be able to read all those books by the end if the year (a month and half) and I have other books that I want to read. So, consider this me giving up on this challenge. Shame. Never mind, I've now made my list of books for the 2011 Debut Author Challenge, which I'll hopefully do a lot better! =]
