I have been super inspired by all of the posts this month about everyone’s “year in books”. I thought I was a pretty avid reading, but it turns out, I have a long way to go.

I had a pretty good mix of actually reading vs. listening to books last year. For the record, I’m a die hard Amazon Kindle fan (I know, not the best for authors, etc… but I just love the form fit. Also, I use Libby when possible to check books out from the library).

Here were the books I read in 2022:

• My Side Of The Mountain - Jean Craighead George
• Ready Player One (again) - Ernest Cline
• The Slow Regard Of Silent Things - Patrick Rothfuss

• The Two Towers - J. R. R. Tolkien
