Professor’s List of Best Books of 2014

There are always so many books to choose from every year. It is hard to narrow down the list. Some books are “must owns” and others are “must borrow” from the library. One thing is for sure, I need a bigger bookshelf and many more gift cards to my favorite bookstores! This year was no exception. Here are my favorite “must own” books from 2014.
