#12Booksof2022 - September @Andrew65
An atmospheric haunting #HF from one of my favorite authors - again, GORGEOUS narration
This DID make my #Top22of22

Here are my #Top22of22. It was a great reading year, but even though I read the most books I've ever read in a year, I didn't have too much trouble choosing my favorites. @Cinfhen

This was a VERY tough read, but so good. I can understand why some people didn‘t like it though, as it takes rather a black look at a mother who is diagnosed with cancer, even using the disease as one of the narrators.

These are my #top22of22
The ones that made the cut that aren't pictured are:
Mickey 7
The Kaiju Preservation Society
Battle Dragons City of Speed
The Dragons Promise
Lots of new to me authors which is awesome.

I could put this off no longer even as I hope to finish one more book before the end of the year. Here is my top 22 books read in 2022 with my favorite fiction and nonfiction titles to the left. It was a great year and thank you all for introducing me to books I never would have read without your brining them to my attention. Cannot wait to see what 2023 has in store for our bookshelves. #top22of22

How crazy that I had twenty-two 5⭐️ books in 2022, and here they are! The 5% 5⭐️ rule held true again since I finished 444 books this year. Best of the year goes to Sea of Tranquility. Nine I listened to as audiobooks, and nine are nonfiction. #Top22of22

I read exactly 200 books in 2022 and these, in no particular order, are my favourites.

I feel like this year has been a great mix of the serious and not-so-serious. I also found some great books on prize lists, as well as gifts from friends here on Litsy.

Here‘s to 2023, Happy New Bookish Year, everyone!

I decided to join in for #Top22of22 It was hard to leave out a few, but I must say it was a good year for books. In 2022, I‘ve learned new things about myself, considered different perspectives, made magic with Baba Yaga, went back in time in a café, walked amongst gods, ran through the forest with wolves and woodsmen, and treated vampires and mummies with Dr. Van Helsing. I walked a path of healing and fantasy, and these books certainly helped.

Here they are, my #Top22of22! Not my best reading year, few five stars reads, but these 22 I can recommend wholeheartedly!

I may finish another book this year, but I doubt it will displace anything in my #Top22of22 list. I had so many things I wanted to put on this list, so I limited myself to 1 book per author, no rereads, and tried to make sure I included a cross-section of the genres I read during the year. These are in no particular order, but they all made a real impression and I think they‘ll all stick with me for a long time.
