Duration: Reoccurring every year, but start fresh from January to December. (If you start after January, you may back-post from the beginning of the year.)
Rules: Read books by authors that are New 2 U (new to you).
• If an author writes under a pseudonym, you may use that, provided it is a different genre (or sub-genre, writes Historical Romance under one name and Paranormal Romance under another) and you have NOT read any of those books.
• Anthologies are always a wonderful way to try someone new, so long as
one of the stories has been written by a New 2 U author, it is permitted.
• Audiobooks are fine.
• Novellas are fine.
• You can set your goal now, or adjust as the year progresses.
• Feel free to make a special comment, if you found a real winner.
(★Stars★ or ♥hearts♥ indications welcome!)
• Please indicate your totals. For example: LEVELS
Come What May = Let's see how many I read.
Fresh Face = 5
Adventurer = 10
Risk Taker = 15
Devil May Care = 20 or more!
