BEST AND WORST READS OF 2014

this book was the most emotional read that i read this year it was very cathartic it was just a big emotional release for me it had the most personal meaning

the first book cinder was the best series opener that i read this year

clockwork princess by cassandra clare and i'm going to go ahead and count the entire infernal devices series i've read all of them this year and i gave all of them five stars this was my best overall series best series finale best romance best characters my most rad author of the year

crest was one of the best series installments that i read this was also my favorite retelling and my favorite science fiction that i read this year

this is my favorite standalone fantasy of the year and my favorite 2014 debut novel

i actually expected it to be my number one book of the year for a long time because kath is just so relatable and the romance just made you weak at your knees made me weak in my knees at least this was the best contemporary i read of the year and the best standalone book i read of the year

there was just no underlying message about friendship i just did not enjoy reading about two catty whiny mean girls who undermined each other at every step

this was my favorite series installment of the year it just took that series and upped the stakes so much higher selena is my favorite character of the year and this is my favorite fantasy of the year

this was a book that i was kind of avoiding because the hype was just unreal usually when books are hyped that much they don't live up to my expectations but i finally did pick it up and it blew me away it lived up to the hype and more the reason i liked this book so much was because the writing style was very unique and very artistic

i just read this book this year and it really moved me to tears which is saying a lot because i'm not really a book crier there are just so many quotes in this book about life and the meaning of life and the importance of friends and family so this definitely gets points for being very emotional and very thought provoking

a duology that i am counting together not a drop to drink and in a handful of dust by mindy mcginnis i read both of these books this year and of all the books i read this year this one was the most realistic setting to me

i know a lot of people aren't fans of it but to me it showed a realistic relationship and it showed the type of relationship that i wanted to see i don't always want books about crushes that lead up and lead up and then at the very end of the book the characters get together

this was really a fantastic book it was an extremely unique idea and a fun read and it just made me think about a ton of things like science and medicine and ethics and friendship and aging it's very underrated

a duology that i am counting together not a drop to drink and in a handful of dust by mindy mcginnis i read both of these books this year and of all the books i read this year this one was the most realistic setting to me

i did not like the first book very much but this book totally blew me away it was a wonderful mystery and it just had me gripped and on the edge of my seat the whole time i love the way that she wrapped up the mystery and revealed everything in the end

this was just a really fun quick summer reread but it's actually got a deep message to it the main character was extremely relatable to me and i loved the theme of breaking out and becoming who you are

this was the finale of the maze runner trilogy and i liked the major runner but those last two books were just so repetitive as a series finale there was just not enough information for me it gave you a nice little ending but it didn't give me any of the reasons about anything that had happened in these past three books and it just was a disappointment

this is just another really cute fluffy romance read
