Robin H's 52 Book Challenge in 2014

[Robin]

I read 52 books last year, and that was a challenging, but comfortable reading pace. I want to continue to read books in my TBR bookcase. I also want to continue re-reading the Hollows series by Kim Harrison. I haven't decided if this will be a book a month to get ready for the release of the final book in 2015, or if I will read all of them at the beginning of the year. It's hard ot put them down once started. Preliminary plan:
12 - Hollows series re-read
1 - The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. I need to finish this trilogy.
8 - Mercy Thompson series by Patricia Briggs. My mom gave me this series a few years ago. I should get those back to her.
7 - New series books from favorites. JR Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Kim Harrison, and more come out with at least one new book a year in a series I read. I'll leave some space for those.
12 - Anita Blake series by Laurell K Hamilton. Given to me by my mom. I'll read one a month, unless I get addicted.
12 - My choice. - Either from my TBR bookcase or e-readers, or new ones that catch my eye.

I have the same goal for 2014 :) I think it should be realistic

January Reads

A slow start for the challenge.

Every Which Way But Dead
Book 3 in Kim Harrison's Hollows series. This is a re-read. I love this series, and love the start of Kisten and Rachel's relationship in this book.

Guilty Pleasures
Book 1 in Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series. A suggestion from my mom and sister. I like it. I'm looking forward to the next one.

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest
I enjoyed this trilogy. I thought book 3 was the weakest of three, but I was so invested in Lisbeth that I had to finish. I also liked the character development for Erica Berger in this book.

Anna Karenina
Started this as part of a yearlong goal. It's going much faster than I expected, and I'll probably finish early. I'm glad I watched the movie first. I think that's helping me keep the names straight.

February Reads

Wool
Book 1 of a trilogy. Recommended by my sister. I thought it was an odd choice for her. She doesn't normally like sci-fi. I do, but Wool was a very slow read for me at first. I really liked it by the end and am looking forward to the next book.
