Books Read in 2014<\/h2>\n

2014 was not a great year for me. There was a lot of loss, I had my fair share of physical issues, and I was unhappy a great deal of the time.
\nOne of my escapes was into the world of straightforward uncomplicated romance. As a result I read a LOT of books this year.
\nI freely recognize that most of them were complete trash, but they were quick, easy to read, and usually at the least diverting.
\nHopefully this will be the only year where I’m unhappy enough to plough through 171 books. It’s certainly not a year I’d be keen to repeat.<\/p>\n
