For this first month of the year I kinda just want to mood read and pick up the books that pique my interest the most when I feel like reading. These are the books that are the highest on my TBR at the moment that I will most likely be choosing from:
In December I had a pretty good reading month despite how busy it was with all the holiday festivities. I managed to complete 10 books which put me at the 100 books read mark for 2022 which I am thrilled about!
The Hollow Places by T. Kingfisher – ⭐️3/5 stars
We Spread by Iain Reid – ⭐️2/5 stars
Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan – ⭐️4/5 stars
Book Lovers by Emily Henry – ⭐️5/5 stars
Bryony and Roses by T. Kingfisher – ⭐️3/5 stars
All of Our Demise by Amanda Foody & Christine Lynn Herman – ⭐️3/5 stars
The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware – ⭐️3/5 stars
The Wedding Crasher by Mia Sosa – ⭐️4/5 stars
My Best Friends Exorcism by Grady Hendrix – ⭐️3/5 stars
The Maid by Nita Prose – ⭐️4/5 stars
Unfortunately this year hasn’t been the best in terms of finding a lot of books that I love. A lot of 3 star reads for me, although there are still a few books that I loved and count as my favourites of the year!
The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune
Book Lovers by Emily Henry
Where the Drowned Girls Go by Seanan McGuire
Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller
Slewfoot by Brom
A Dowry of Blood by S.T. Gibson
All of Us Villains by Amanda Foody & Christine Lynn Herman
The Southern Bookclub’s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix
Clown in a Cornfield by Adam Cesare
Book of Night by Holly Black
These are the books that I just didn’t quite enjoy this year! I definitely tried to be more honest with my reviews and give more 1 and 2 stars if I wasn’t all that into a book rather than just giving it a three like I usually would. I definitely didn’t actively hate any of these book they just weren’t my style and taste!
This Coven Won’t Break by Isabel Sterling
Our Violent Delights by Chloe Gong
My Heart is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones
All’s Well by Mona Awad
Velvet Was the Night by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake
