Awesome Author Challenge 2010


This challenge is being run by Alyce from At Home With Books.  The idea behind this challenge is to read works by authors who have been recommended to you time and again, but you haven't gotten around to reading them yet. These are the authors that everyone else tells you are awesome, thus the "Awesome Author Challenge" title.

The Rules:
1. The challenge starts January 1, 2010 and ends December 31, 2010.
2. Crossover from other challenges is allowed.
3. Choose the level at which you would like to participate, post about it and sign up here
4. Titles and authors do not have to be predetermined, and can change at any time.
5. Books can come from any genre or reading level, the only requirement is that you have heard great things about the author, but haven't yet read any of their works.

The Levels:
Easy: Choose three authors and read at least one title from each author.
Moderate: Choose six authors and read at least one title from each author.
Challenging: Choose ten authors and read at least one title from each author.
Over-Achieving: Anything over ten authors.

I'm actually going to aim for the Over-Achieving level as there are so many great authors that have been recommended to me & I want to try to start reading some of their books.  I'm going to aim for 20 books but may change this later in the year depending on how I get on!  I'll post links to my reviews below.

1. Hush, Hush - Becca Fitzpatrick
2. Tall, Dark & Dead - Tate Hallaway
