2015 End of Year Book Survey!

Hello everyone! This End of Year book survey was made by Jamie @ The Perpetual Page-Turner which where you fill out the questions given. The title is pretty much self-explanatory or you can just go to her page. 

Number Of Books You Read: 62
Number of Re-Reads: 2
Genre You Read The Most From: Fantasy of course!

1. Best Book You Read In 2015?

This is a hard one! I read so many great books this year and they were mostly popular books too! But I'll say Hopeless by Colleen Hoover! Such an awesome and emotional book!

2. Book You Were Excited About & Thought You Were Going To Love More But Didn’t?

This is a tough one since most of everything I've read turned out pretty well but I'll have to say Reawakened by Colleen Houck. Colleen Houck is one of my favorite authors and wrote one of my favorite series of all times but this book wasn't as amazing as her Tiger's Curse series. I know it's only the first book but I was really excited since it's based on Egyption Mythology and Houck makes swoony guys but sadly didn't turn out the way I wanted. I still enjoyed it though!

 3. Most surprising (in a good way or bad way) book you read? 

I know this is cheating but I have to say the Jennifer L. Armenstrout's Covenant series and The Dark Elements trilogy! I enjoyed all of her books and her humor !

 4. Book You “Pushed” The Most People To Read (And They Did)?

I didn't really influence much people into reading in my life since no one around me reads but I did convince my best friend to read Hopeless by Colleen Hoover and she loves it!

 5. Best series you started in 2015? Best Sequel of 2015? Best Series Ender of 2015?

Best series; A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

Best Sequel of 2015: Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor (Daughter of Smoke and Bone #2)

Best End of 2015: Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead

6. Favorite new author you discovered in 2015?

Colleen Freaking Hoover!

 I will read anything by her! I read all of her books and loved them all!

7. Best book from a genre you don’t typically read/was out of your comfort zone?

I read anything in YA and nothing is really out of my comfort zone since I'm open for anything so I'm just going to not answer this question and pass.

8. Most action-packed/thrilling/unputdownable book of the year?

Enough said.

9. Book You Read In 2015 That You Are Most Likely To Re-Read Next Year?

I hardly reread books unless I'm really thinking about the book and missing all the characters but I do reread I'm probably going to reread certain sections of the book since it's the stuff I remember most and enjoyed. I know I've already said this in one of my previous questions but I'll have to go with Last Sacrifice by Richelle Mead because even to this day I reread some of the passages that made me cry and laugh. I REALLY LOVE THAT SERIES OKAY!!

10. Favorite cover of a book you read in 2015?

I know this is a novella but this cover is so awesome!

11. Most memorable character of 2015?

There's so many to choose from since I remember a lot of characters and I'm trying not to use the same books again but I'm gonna cheat and say the characters from the Lunar Chronicles since this year I read Cress and it felt so good to be back in that world again.

 12. Most beautifully written book read in 2015?

GAAAHHH so many to choose from but I'll have to go with Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy since her writing is AMAZING!!!

13. Most Thought-Provoking/ Life-Changing Book of 2015?

Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover! I didn't like the first half of the book since it's mostly sex but the other half is where the emotional parts happen and shit goes down and it leaves you crying and then there's a happily ever after and then you want to cry again because everyone is happy. That's what Hoover's books do to you but I think this one really got to me since it was more darker than the others.

14. Book you can’t believe you waited UNTIL 2015 to finally read? 

Dude I've read so many old books this year and I want to kick myself for waiting this long to read it but I'll have to go with the Covenant series again. 

15. Favorite Passage/Quote From A Book You Read In 2015?

“To my wonderful readers:

Sorry about that last cliff-hanger.

Well, no, not really. HAHAHAHA.

But seriously, I love you guys.”

-Rick Riordan

This was from Mark of Athena and I didn't read that this year probably in 2014 or 2013 but to this day this count makes me so mad yet makes me love Riordan at the same time.

I'll have to say Ignifex from Cruel Beauty since he was so funny and awesome! There were other swoon-worthy guys but since I read Cruel Beauty last he kind of sticks out!

I pictured Ignifex as Rami Malek. Why? I like the thought of seeing Malek in my head while reading since he's absolutely gorgeous.
