“Everyone’s had shit in their lives. Some people have it worse than others. But no one can turn you into a bad person, just like no one can turn you into a good one. We’re all dealt our hands in life, and how we choose to react is entirely up to us. That’s free will.” from Hushed by Kelley York

5. Best Moment of Bookish/Blogging Life In 2014
Sadly I haven't been able to read or blog much this year due to college. But I feel like I have grown a lot as a reviewer. I write much better reviews and I've also learned to choose books I most probably will enjoy instead of randomly picking up something. The best moment? I guess when my dad bought me loads of books for my birthday. Not only do I hardly ever get such amazing books at such good deals but my father doesn't usually buy me books. So even though it was a stupid little moment, it meant a lot to me.
6. Most Popular Post This Year On My Blog (Whether It Be By Comments Or Views)
Countdown Survey
7. Post I Wished Got A Little More Love
Battle of the Book Boyfriends
8. Best Bookish Discover (Book Related Sites, Book Stores, etc)
I discovered a book shop (more of a stall than a shop) which sells old and new books at great prices! They also sell manga so that's a plus for my brother. Sadly it's really far from my home.
9. Did you complete any reading challenges or goals that you had set for yourself at the beginning of this year?
I knew this year was going to be a busy one so I didn't join any specific reading challenges. But I did do the reading challenge on Goodreads. I challenged myself to read 30 books and read 31. So yeah, I completed that. :D
LOOKING AHEAD
1. One Book I Didn't Get To In 2014 But Will Be My Number 1 Priority In 2015
Game Of Thrones by George R. R. Martin. I really need to finish that book! It's been ages since I started it then left it in the middle. But since it says a book I didn't get to so I'll say An Abundance of Katherines by John Green because a friend has been pushing me to read it for so long!
2. Book You Are Most Anticipating For 2015 (Non-Debut)
Well I'm not sure if it will release in 2015 or 2016 but I really really want to read Remembrance (Mediator #7) by Meg Cabot.
3. 2015 Debut I Am Most Anticipating
Well nothing in particular... Maybe Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard.
4. Series Ending/A Sequel I Am Most Anticipating In 2015
None
5. One Thing I Hope To Accomplish Or Do In My Reading/Blogging Life In 2015
