Here's what I read last year: 2013 Books
In case you didn't go back, I read 18 books last year. I decided to make a realistic goal based on that number, and for 2014, I set a goal of 20 books.
This year, I actually read 27 books! So I totally blew my goal out of the water. Here's what I read:

2. Gregor the Overlander

It also looks like I reviewed MOST of my books with you! I think that when I read as series, I will continue to review the series as a whole like I did for The Chronicles of Narnia. It was just easier that way, and it gives my thoughts on all of the books, unlike The Underland Chronicles.
This year, thanks to a free trial e-mail, and my friend (and fellow blogger) Kristin who always talks about audio books, I started to download and listen to books with Audible from Amazon. This is a nice change for my commute to and from work. I love music, but I'm just tired of everything on my iPod. So I listened to Eat, Pray, Love, Killing Kennedy, and Food: A Love Story. Coming up for 2015, I will be listening to Killing Lincoln by Bill O'Reilly (currently listening to this), Yes Please by Amy Poehler, and the Serial podcasts.
My reading goal for 2015 is going to be 30 books! I have a long list of books to get working on. I have one more that I received for Christmas, and I have quite a few coming from my school's fall book fair.
Happy Reading in 2015!!

Ah, you're welcome! Doesn't just improve the quality of your drive? I feel like it's not wasted time anymore.
I read 52 this year and instead of pushing myself (I spent a LOT of money on books last year), I'm attempting a new challenge, but I'm still going to recap books.
Goodness, you read a LOT of books last year, I'm impressed! And a little jealous. My goal this year is to read for myself, instead of just reading baby how-to books, LOL. Had you read the Chronicles of Narnia before? Those are my absolute favorite!
