my top 10 fave books of 2022 💜🏆 5 star reads

after I finally picked it up when it came out earlier this year I just fell in love with the story and was just so broken by the really emotional things that happened in this book

this book had me in tears by the end and just bawling over the pages and just so astounded by the beautiful writing

part of me was so terrified to pick this one up because I thought it was gonna let me down but I'm so glad to say that it did not and it blew me away in more ways than one

I think it was just one of those books that just hit me in so many ways and I just kept thinking about it for so many months afterwards and I'm just so impressed by the author's writing

it's just such a fun cute love story and it has this element of like publishing and books and writers

I found myself laughing out loud while reading this book but also just so engrossed in the story and sort of the slight mystery that's going on

she has this writing style that is just really compelling and quite funny as well which I think makes the overall storytelling aspect of this book quite fun

this one was a super popular Thriller from I think last year and I finally got around to picking it up this year and absolutely loved it's definitely a page Turner that will just suck you in

I love this book so much and I think there's so many aspects of it that are very personal to me and part of why I love it so much but I do think overall objectively it is a fantastic book and fantasy and just like literary Masterpiece

this is a memoir that honestly broke me and took me apart and put me back together by the end and it is such a powerful story about one woman's struggle with sexual assault and also the legal system when it comes to dealing with sexual assault cases

this is another one that really took me by surprise and I absolutely fell in love with this book and needed to like get to the end and find out what happened

this is the companion sequel to next year in Havana which I read last year I think and which was also one of my your favorite books of the year or an honorable mention for 2021

I do think it's just very artfully done and makes for a very profound and moving story and that will just have you feeling for these characters in a big way

this is a really really beautifully written just enchanting romance

I will go to the ends of the Earth for this book and for the main character in this book because I just loved her so much

this is a book that I read earlier this year as part of my book club and I had expected to enjoy it but I didn't expect to love it as much as I did and completely fall into the story and just be sucked in by it

it has so many layers to it and examines like multiple characters across decades and really tackles ideas of race privilege and sort of history as well and I absolutely loved every moment of it

this one had a really beautiful love story to it and I think Beatrice as a character herself was just so compelling and I was just in awe of her as a person and I just wanted to be her because she's amazing
