Books Read in 2014

Books Read 2014

Happy 2015! Another reading year has ended and it is time for my annual reading list for the old year. My 2014 list is sadly lacking compared to 2013. I am not exactly sure why, though I know that moving in April did not provide many moments for reading. 

I read all but one book (which I am currently reading) from my Reading Goals of 2014 list. My goal with this list is to read books that have been sitting around on my shelves for a while, after I read it I then decide if the book is worth keeping or get rid of it. I did get rid of quite a few from my list while buying more than I got rid of. (A terrible habit that I have!)
Here is a breakdown of what I read followed by a complete list of books:
  • The Bible - Genesis - Song of Solomon, I read through Psalms and Proverbs twice.

  1. Wow! I'm impressed with your list. Your Heyer titles made me think of Elizabeth Chater, another regency romance writer who I discovered this year. Have you read her?
