Best of 2014 - These are a Few of My Favorite Things





It’s just about time for the party hats, noise makers, and countdowns to begin. I may not have a big shiny ball or Dick Clark, excuse me, I mean Ryan Seacrest, but I’m having my very own countdown. This has been a great year for reading! I watched one of my most beloved series come to an end, and picked several new fascinating series.

With 2015 just around the corner, I decided to get together with my favorite authors, audiobook narrators, and book bloggers to ask them about their favorite books of 2014. This blog is part one of four in my Best of 2014 Series (My Best of 2014, Authors, Audiobook Narrators, and Bloggers).

Best of 2014 - Top Covers



They say, "Don't judge a book by it's cover."  But sometimes a books cover is just so striking, that you can't help it.  Some of these covers are from books that I have read this year, while others caught my eye at the book store or online.  These are in no particular order, because I love each of them for very different reasons.
