My 2014 Book List
Presented just for the heck of it, here is the list of books I finished in 2014. Like last year, I'm a bit disappointed, but considering I doubled the amount of kids in my house, I think I have a valid excuse. My favorite of the year? Probably "Spin." But I enjoyed the hell out of the Merchant Princes series. (My favorite genre is alt-history and I especially enjoy alt-history books that mix in our world as well.) My least favorite was "The Uncertain Places." I nearly gave up about halfway through.

I feel bad giving this one star as it wasn't a poorly written book, but I absolutely hated the main character so much I just despised the entire read. Sure, it was funny, but a funny story about an asshole is still a story about an assho...
Exceptional! It just got better and better as it went on. Essentially one long "heist" novel set in a fantasy world. Definitely worth your time!
