Reading Wishes: 2013 Reading Challenges

My main focus in 2013 is to enjoy blogging, have fun and to not feel so pressured in posting and churning out reviews but I do love some motivation so here are the challenges I’m participating in this year and what I’m aiming for.

#DAC - Debut Author Challenge

The aim:

Read and review at least 12 debut books releasing in 2013.

My goal:
Read 20 2013 debut books. Since I LOVE this challenge and supporting debut authors and their books, I don’t think I’ll have any trouble reaching my goal. Plus, have you seen all the amazing debuts that are set to release this year? I can’t wait!

A few titles I plan to read are:

The Art of Wishing by Lindsay Ribar
Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke
Bruised by Sarah Skilton
Canary by Rachele Alpine
Mila 2.0 by Debra Driza
My Life After Now by Jessica Verdi

#AWW - Australian Women Writers Challenge

The aim:

For this challenge, the idea is to read, review and support Australian female authors.

My goal:

I plan to read 10 and review at least 6 books, which is known as the Franklin level. I love reading and supporting Australian authors so I’m really excited to be joining in the challenge this year.
