Top Ten Books I Read In 2014

Hi everyone! Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, which is hosted over at  The Broke and The Bookish . This week's topic is Top Ten Books I Read In 2014. 1.  It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini This book really stayed with me for a long time after I read it, and it also helped me get out of a massive reading slump, so I am VERY grateful for this book. I loved the characters and the writing and while it was sad at times, it was also very enlightening. (You can read my review  here .) 2.  The Fault In Our Stars by John Green This book is undoubtedly the most-hyped YA book for a long time, and I do think it deserved it. It showed a different side to sick-kids and I think it really set the bar high for similar novels. (You can read my review  here .) 3.  Divergent by Veronica Roth (Divergent #1) I was a bit late to the game with this one, but luckily just in time to read it before the film came out! Although I had read Dystopian novels b...

Savour It   by Tarah DeWitt Published: 21st May 2024 by Piatkus I received a copy of this e-book from the publisher via NetGalley. This in no way affects my review. I had heard of Tarah and some of her books before this latest one, and knew she was highly regarded within the Romance world, and now I know why!

I really liked that Fisher was brought into Sage's life to help her from being embarrassed about the ending of her previous relationship, and how he helped to boost her confidence back up, while Sage helped bring Fisher down to earth and build up his own confidence in being a parent figure for the first time. This felt more emotional than your average romance novel, and I really enjoyed that aspect of it, as it felt authentic that Fisher and Sage's respective circumstances led to a strong connection and r...

Kilt Trip   by Alexandra Kiley Published: 23rd May 2024 by Zaffre I received a copy of this e-book from the publisher via NetGalley. This in no way affects my review. I'm really not sure how I feel about this book - it almost feels as if completely split into two separate halves, with my wildly different levels of interest on either side. I was completely gripped in the beginning by the premise of this, and the whole enemies-to-lovers thing that Addie and Logan had going on, but I just didn't fully believe in the build-up to their romance, or much of anything that came after. The switch from hating each other to feeling anything more didn't convince me, and my interest seemed to slowly wane after the beginning of their relationship, when normally it would be at its peak. I didn't find the writing hugely compelling, but it wasn't bad at all! I think the pacing just felt off to me, and the characterisation of the primary and secondary people wasn't at its stronges...
