  1. True Detective was my favorite show of 2014. The acting and writing was fabulous. Looking forward to Season 2. Not sure about the cast but I will reserve judgement until I see it. I have read a few of your Top 10 titles, but I didn't love Husband's Secret. I kinda wanted to throw it across the room it made me so mad. Lol.
