I tend not to live too much of my new year's resolutions, but at the beginning of 2014, I set myself a reading challenge. Last year's target was to read at least 20 books. By around the middle of the year, I completed the challenge and decided to add 8 more books for my Goodreads 2014 Reading Challenge.
I know that 28 is not a number to brag about, but I feel I wanted to keep a practical and realistic target for the year so that I wouldn't wasted my weekend and free times without any effort to turn in any book.
Below are the books that I've read - from the most recent, back to the start of the year;
1 - This Star Won't Go Out by Esther Earl
2 - Tabula Rasa by Kristen Lippert-Martin
3 - Awek Chuck Taylor by Nami Nob Cobbler
4 - Four : A Divergent Story Collection by Veronica Roth
5 - We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
6 - Fragile Line by Brooklyn Sky
7 - The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
8 - The Geography of You And Me by Jennifer E. Smith
9 - Meh, Sandar Pada Aku by Aifa Batrisya
10 - Suamiku Tak Romantik Tapi Autistik by Farisha Imani
11 - Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
12 - V-Card by Alicia Michaels
13 - The Treatment by Suzanne Young
14 - The Program by Suzanne Young
15 - The Twilight Saga: The Complete Film Archive by Robert Abele
16 - Coraline by Neil Gaiman
17 - Eleanor And Park by Rainbow Rowell
18 - If I Stay by Gayle Forman
19 - Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
20 - The World of Divergent : The Path To Allegiant by Veronica Roth
21 - Fracture Me by Tahereh Mafi
22 - Ignite Me by Tahereh Mafi
23 - Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
24 - Matched by Ally Condie
25 - Divergent by Veronica Roth
26 - The Fault In Our Stars by John Green
27 - Destroy Me by Tahereh Mafi
28 - Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Phew, I've completed the whole series of Shatter Me. I also re-read Divergent for the 4-5th time? I lost count. As you can see, most of my books are Young Adult and taking place in dystopian world, because that is my favourite genre.
I would like to recommend 3 books from my last year's reading list (See my 'heart'!). 2 of them are from the same author, Rainbow Rowell. To tell you the truth, she quickly gotten a place in my all-time favourite writer. I really like her style of writing and ability to make me feel connected to the characters. I'd suggest you to read Eleanor and Park if you haven't..... Oh wait, just kidding, READ IT, IM GONNA FORCE YOU IDUNCURR *put a pocket knife near your throat* ;P
This book seriously wins all my feels hashtags. I cannot recommend it enough!!
As for 2015, I'm setting myself a slightly easier challenge of 25 books. I'm not sure how it will go, but I'm hoping I can completed this year's challenge on time. :) To start off, I'm currently reading This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith. You can read my previous book challenge here; [click me], and also connect with me via my Goodread's profile [click me] - where you can find in depth review and rating on each book that I've read.
Have you read any of the books that I've mentioned above? Also, what's your favourite read from last year? :D

Honestly I don't read that much too, but sometimes I really like to take my time off from the internet, and actually starts to read. Orang lain baca study book, kita baca novel. Haha. Bila dah baca, tak boleh berhenti. XD
YAY! I really like Goodreads! It's totally helps me to read more!
Please read Eleanor and Park so I can have a friend to fangirl with. Hehe It's sooooo good, thank me later. ;P ;P
Acah2 banyak je. LOL. Honestly most of them were 100/200 + pages je, so within a week dah boleh habis 1 title. Welcome to the YA Book Club, Aimi! *buat whistle hunger games tetiba*
