2014: A year of books

Inspired by 50bookchallenge, my goal is to read 50 books per year. Last year I made the goal, but this year I didn't thanks to a couple things:

1) Two very long books. The two Stormlight Archive books took me about the same amount of time reading four normal books would, so that's about eight short of where I might have been.
2) I lost six weeks in the beginning of the year and two weeks later in the year to being in the hospital (zero reading done).

I hit 41 books read for the year ("read" being "reached at least the 50% mark"). I had 8 books that I didn't reach the halfway point of.

I ranked them as to how much I liked them:
Loved: 13
Liked: 5
Okay: 5
Disliked: 14
Hated: 3
Uncounted: 1 (#2: graphic novels and unfinished)

The average was "okay" almost exactly on the nose. Last year the average was just over "liked". Each rank was assigned a number for easy averaging (loved/5, liked/4, etc).

( 41 books, a link to my review, and 1-2 sentences from the review. )

( 8 books I didn't finish, a link to my review, and 1-2 sentences from the review. )

Process-wise, I'm pretty happy with how this year went. I'm going to keep everything the same, except just use loved/liked/okay/disliked/hated as the ranking, drop the 5/4/3/2/1 number score that went with them. They're not necessary, I can just apply them when doing the year's average.

I didn't do a 'a year of books' summary post previous to 2013, but I want to add those stats to years going forward.

Total books read:
2014: 41 read, 8 unfinished, total average rating: okay.
2013: 53 read, ??? unfinished, total average rating: liked.
