This is SO late! I know, I know! 2014 was filled with incredible reads for me. I discovered so many genres, authors, and books that I absolutely fell in love with. Aren't books the best?! This list contains my favorite books that I read in 2014. That doesn't mean they were published that year; just that I fell in love with them in 2014!
1. Compulsion by Martina Boone
This book made me fall in love with the south all over again. It was flawless and I cannot wait for the next book in this series. As soon as I finished it, I knew it'd make this list.
Yes! This series is so amazing. I'd never read steampunk before this, and now I'm hooked! It's such a fun YA series. You just can't go wrong with it!
3. Pieces of Me by Kira Adams
Ahhh. I love me some Indies, and one of my favorites just happens to be Kira Adams! This book is so realistic and amazing!

4. The Cure for Dreaming by Cat Winters
This book. The feels. It's important. It reminds me of how far we've come with women's rights, and how far we still have to go.

7. Dissever by Tracey Ward
Be still my Edgar Allan Poe loving heart. This is one of Tracey's lesser known books, but it's my favorite of hers!
