2013 was a stellar year for awesome books! I read 100 this year, and my goal is the same (if not more) for 2014.
As we begin a new year, I wanted to share all my 4.5-star and higher rated books from 2013. I'm looking forward to even more great books this year. (click the title to see the full review)

Rachel Morgan, Melissa Foster, Martha Reynolds, and Jo Michaels (all seen above) made the list more than once. Melissa Foster and Jo Michaels both made the list three times. Few things make me happier than having some go-to authors.
In the last two weeks of December, I read several books that will be officially reviewed over the next two weeks. A couple were 5-star reads. Look for appearances again by Melissa Foster and Jo Michaels (both 5-star reviews) and a new favorite... Juliana Haygert.
Here's to reading in 2014!
This post was published today on my review site, Mom in Love with Fiction, but I had to share it here as well. Wishing everyone an amazing 2014!

100 books! Come on! What an honor. Thank you, Tia.
I don't think I was anywhere near 100 books read last year. Maybe 25? LOL! I had a difficult time finding books I loved and that could hold me. Plus, my life was changing. I don't know how you managed it with all the moving and stuff you had going on. :)
Kudos! Thanks for the mentions. I'm glad you love what I write. Somehow, that makes it all seem worth every frozen finger, sweaty bum, and hiccup in learning the craft of publishing :)
WOOT!
Hugs for you.
WRITE ON!
