Amazing Reads: A Different Spin

This week's amazing reads post is going to give you some flashing back to 2013.

Only it won't consist of pictures or videos, but book titles.

A few years ago I found this meme by The Happily Ever After over at my friend Lisa's place and I've been participating ever since. Hang tight til the end of the post and I'll give you the links to previous years in case you're curious.

You know I finally got back to talking books a week or so ago when I tossed out a few titles on my to-read list for 2014, so I am really hoping that I have my reading (and writing about reading) mojo back. I also have a few fantastic book reviews coming up - not trying to flatter myself - the books have been fantastic, I hope you'll enjoy the reviews!

Anyway, without further ado, here's my reflections on the past year in books!

And I haven't fully updated 2013's list, but I do try to keep a full list of my reads over at Reading With Redneck.  Review links are posted there, as well.

So, tell me, which title on this post strikes you as most interesting? Enough so that you might pick up the book for yourself? Fill me in! And happy reading!
