This half of the survey is focused book blogging and reading life in 2013.

1. New favorite book blog you discovered in 2013? 

To be totally honest I really don't have any certain "favorite" book blog I discoved in 2013. I would say there are many of them I enjoy not just limited to one. 

Here are a few: 

• areadingnurse.blogspot.com
• http://www.rockstarbooktours.com/
• http://booksniffersanonymous.com/
• http://uncorkedthoughts.blogspot.co.uk/
• http://www.cherrymischievous.com

2. Favorite review that you wrote in 2013? 

Wow, great question. Hmm...not sure really. I guess I would either Phoenix by Elizabeth Richards or The Last Academy by Anne Applegate

3. Best discussion you had on your blog?

In 2013? Why I love Reading! - My Reading Story or in all 3 years I've been blogging? 
Book Blogging - Do you feel left out?

4. Most thought-provoking review or discussion you read on somebody else’s blog?

I agree with Jamie at Perpetual Page Turners Has Book Blogging Fallen out of Fashion? is a fab discussion piece. Very honest and though-provoking. 

5. Best event that you participated in (author signings, festivals, virtual events, memes, etc.)?

I have been to a lot of author signing this year. Some of them I have yet to blog about. Here are the ones I have posted.

1. One Book You Didn’t Get To In 2013 But Will Be Your Number 1 Priority in 2014?

The Book Thief Markus Zusak.

 I have been on my library wanting list since the begging of November. I REALLY want to read this one. :)

2. Book You Are Most Anticipating For 2014 (non-debut)?

*sigh* There is no way I could only chose one. There are SO many 2014 releases I am looking forward to but if I had to choose at least a couple I would pick Cress and Unhinged.

3. 2014 Debut You Are Most Anticipating?

Once again there are simply to many to name but one big one for me is Panic by Lauren Oliver.

4. Series Ending You Are Most Anticipating in 2014?

Not sure, maybe Forever by Karen Ann Hopkins. I can't wait to see what happens in the end.

5. One Thing You Hope To Accomplish Or Do In Your Reading/Blogging In 2014?

Without a doubt, more reviews and to keep up with reviewing the book shortly after I've read it not wait and then forget what I liked about the book. Also, reach 2000 GFC readers. ;)
