Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish . This weeks category is 2015 debuts! I got very excited when I saw this topic. As some of you may know I love reading debuts. One, I love showcasing and helping support debuts authors. But most of all I love discovering and falling in love with a new voice in YA. Since I have so much love for debuts this is my first Top Ten Tuesday where I could not narrow it down to just 10! I actually have 14 here for you today and even a couple honorable mentions, sorry not sorry. This may be a long list but trust me these all are worth it!
