Top Thirteen Books I’ve Read In 2014
I’ve read so many great books this year! Even with a several month long reading slump, I found that I couldn’t just limit myself to just 10 books this week. That’s how many awesome books I read this year! Here my 13 favorite books from this year!
- Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. I LOVE this book so, so much! It really reminded me of that time in my life, and I related to Cath so much.
- Cress by Marissa Meyer. Cress is my favorite book in the series so far, and I just loved Cress and this re-telling of Rapunzel.
- The Impossible Knife Of Memory by Laurie Halse Anderson. I just love Laurie Halse Anderson, and her most recent book is just as amazing as I thought it would be.
- Me Since You by Laura Weiss. This was such an emotional book, but that didn’t stop me from loving it!
- We’ll Always Have Summer by Jenny Han. I’m so glad things ended the way they did, and I just loved every single word of this book.
- Out Of The Easy by Ruta Sepetys. I loved 1950’s New Orleans. And the characters! I loved them all.
- Ignite Me by Tahereh Mafi. Juliette! And Kenji! They are an awesome pair of friends, they really are.
- The Crown/The Wonder by Colleen Oakes. I couldn’t pick just one of the 2 books out in this series, but it’s a dark Wonderland in this series, and I love that it’s so dark.
- Moonglass by Jessi Kirby. I heart Jessi Kirby, and I love the stories of moonglass and mermaid’s tears. And I love Anna.
- Isla And The Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins. It’s Isla, you can’t go wrong with Isla. This book…it was the first time in a long time that I was so excited and in love with a book.
- The Collected Autobiographies Of Maya Angelou. I really regret not reading her collected autobiographies sooner, but she really had quite the life! She’s definitely an inspiration and a survivor.
- My Best Friend, Maybe by Caela Carter. I liked seeing how their friendship went wrong, and how they put things back together, and realized that they could be friends, but not best friends.
- Lies We Tell Ourselves by Robin Talley. It’s such a good look at both sides of the civil rights movement, and both sides of it! It’s hard to believe that it took place not that long ago.
Great list!
Thanks!
I’ve heard great things about Cress and it’s on my TBR pile, so I’ll hopefully get to it soon! We’ll Always Have Summer was perfect! 🙂
We’ll Always Have Summer is perfect, and Cress is amazing!

I’ve only read Cress from your list. I enjoyed it, but it didn’t quite crack my top 10. Thanks for sharing! Here’s my Best Books of 2014.
Thanks for stopping by!
I’ve read four of these and they were all excellent! I especially loved how the setting came alive in OUT OF THE EASY. Totally made me feel like I was there.
Happy TTT (on Wednesday — I’m a little late to the party)!

The setting did come alive in Out Of The Easy, and I felt like I was there too!
