The 10 Best Books I’ve Read in 2022 So Far

The 10 Best Books I've Read in 2022 So Far

Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Hi everybody, and welcome to a new Top Ten Tuesday post! Today is a freebie, and so I wanted to take the chance to rave a bit about the 10 best books I’ve read in 2022 so far. These are all books I’ve read this year, but were not necessarily released this year. I also decided not to include any re-reads. But without further ado, these are my 10 favorites (in no particular order):

The Green Creek series by TJ Klune – An amazing, hidden gem series that has taken over my life

See You Yesterday by Rachel Lynn Solomon – Time loop shenanigans

So This Is Ever After by F.T. Lukens – The trope of ‘Two idiots in love’ has never been more fun!

The No-Show by Beth O’Leary – An emotional rollercoaster

The Twice-Scorned Lady of Shadow by Annette Marie – PURE EPICNESS!

Book Lovers by Emily Henry – A thoughtful romance full of self-acceptance and bookish love

Wicked Beauty by Katee Robert – A steamy and addictive retelling of Helen of Troy, Achilles and Patroclus

  1. Ooh Annette Marie’s books always look so fun. She has the most awesomest covers too, I think.

    1. I love her covers too and she designs them herself, which I think is just the coolest 🙂

  2. I am reading Beach Reads by Emily Henry right now. Glad to know you like her other book. My TTT Freebie list

    1. Hope you’ll love Beach Read!

  3. I want to read more TJ Klune after reading The House in the Cerulean Sea!

    I have read some great books this year so a couple of my favourites would be The Man Who Died Twice by Richard Osman (no 2 in the series – also loved no 1!) and The Little Cafe In Copenhagen. The list could go on though!

    Have a great week!

  10. Wow, I love seeing not just Wolfsong but the whole series made your list! That makes me even more sure that I’m going to love it. I feel like the lone wolf that did not enjoy Book Lovers. lol

    1. Haha yes I binged the entire series this year and LOVED every single minute of it. I’m sorry you didn’t enjoy Book Lovers, hope her other books suit you better.

  11. Love this list! It also makes narrowing down the end of the year list so much easier.

  12. I enjoyed So This is Ever AFter and Wicked Beauty too! I didn’t get an early copy of the Rachel Lynn Solomon book, so still need to read it. Great picks!
