- 25 books! I finally broke free of the 23 rut!
My favorites this year (in no particular order) were Man's Search for Meaning, Maniac Magee, The Princess Bride, Mrs. Mike, Liar and Spy, and Les Miserables. I liked and would recommend them all for different reasons.
The rest all pretty much ranged between fine and good too, no really big losers this year I think. Crow Country, Cavendish Home, Divergent and Theodosia were probably the most meh, but you know, they weren't horrible.
Happy reading in 2014!
