End of Year Book Survey (2014)

In the middle of December I saw Jamie (From the PerpetualPageTurner) post her survey, but as usual life got in the way and here I am in the middle of January posting this survey. I've never taken one of these so I'm interested to check it out. Plus my best friend and I were looking through surveys we used to send across email the other day and laughed a lot so I am in the survey mood. I copied this survey directly from her site and the past included her graphic so I want to give Jamie full credit for those as well. I hope you enjoy reading about my 2014 reading year.
