No wonder I've been in a reading slump lately.  I've been looking back at what I've read this year and it's one of the most disappointing years in literature.  I think it's because it's the first full year I've been out of school.  My brain is under-worked & out of shape.  But nevertheless, here is the list of what I've read this year.  And if you're interested in the other books I've read, you can see my Goodreads account here. 

The final installment in a very complex, gripping, 
fascinating paranormal series.  I couldn't put it down.

Not as good as the other series
3.5 stars

And yet, another one.
3.5 stars.

 Sadly, a series that started out so strong and ended so flat.
Disappointing 3 stars

This series has potential.  Can't wait to see where it goes.

All in all, it was a tough reading year for me.  There were so many half-started, then abandoned books for me and I really hate to do that.  Last year was a banner year for reading but this one was a bit disappointing.  Luckily it ended on a good note with that Birthmarked series.
If you blogged about the books you've read this year, I'd love to see it!  Link up in the comments if you do.
