If you’ll recall, my goal was to read 24 books this year at an even pace of 2 books a month and only four could be re-reads. I’m happy to say that I hit the end goal of 24 books, but that reading at least two books a month…that wasn’t always so smooth. I got behind a couple of times so that I was really cramming at the end of the month to make sure I got two books read. I also totally failed at it entirely two months. September and November I only read one book. Not exactly happy with that part of my goal-accomplishing.
(I thought I was going to have to read three books this month to make sure I had my total, but then I checked my list and realized that I didn’t. I did have a period earlier in the year when I read like 2 1/2 books a couple of months so I think that little edge saved me. It also made me realize that while I can do algebra, apparently counting is out of my league.)
So here is the last 12 books I read in 2014. The list of the first 12 books can be found here.
13. From the Holocaust to Hogan’s Heroes by Robert Clary
14. Rebecca by Daphne de Maurier
15. The Game from Where I Stand by Doug Glanville
16. The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson
17. On Writing by Stephen King (re-read)
18. Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett (re-read)
19. The Thirst Within by Johi Jenkins
20. Coroner’s Journal: Forensics and the Art of Stalking Death by Louis Cataldie MD
21. Christine by Stephen King
22. Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
23. Salem’s Lot by Stephen King
24. Coffee at Midnight by Brandon Ford
Looking back on the whole list, content-wise, I have to say I’m pretty proud of the fact that I read some “classics”. I never thought I’d ever even consider reading one after Honors English. Good job, self.
Good reading year, too.
