2014 Reading List

It took a bit, but I finally managed to compile my reading list from last year. As you can see there’s a whole lot of Sci-Fi and Fantasy in there with the occasional How-To book on writing (hey, gotta keep those chops fresh!).

The most read author of 2104 was Chuck Wendig, but if you’re looking at total word count then it might go to Brandon Sanderson or Patrick Rothfuss.

See something below you like and want my opinion on? Leave a comment down below and I’ll give you the most wonderful personalized review you could ever ask for!

EDITED: The pictures decided they weren’t going to show up for everybody so I went ahead and deleted them. You’ll just have to settle for the written list below. Sorry for the visually unstunning display!
