Best Books of 2022 -- In Which I Fail Spectacularly to Compile a "Top Ten" List.

Image: Goodreads Year in Books 2022 - 166 Books read.

I read 166 books in 2022. Yes, some of them were shorter books: several middle-grade books and a few advance review copies of picture books. Most were novels, though few were truly giant tomes. I really enjoyed most of them. Which is to say, trying to pick the "top ten" was excruciating and an exercise doomed to failure. So... I cheated. Or rather, I modified the goal. Thus I present to you... my top 10 42 books read in 2022 (and even that is fudging things a bit as there are a few instances here of me using a single book to stand in for the entire series if I read the entire series in 2022 and didn't want my list to balloon uncontrollably) organized like so:

Top 18 (Non-Romance) Books read 2022

Top 9 Romances read 2022
