It's the best time of the year when we get to share our favorite books! Below are my absolute favorite books of 2022 in reverse order of when I read them.
Piranesi by Susanna Clarke - Piranesi was my favorite book of the year. It took almost the entire book for me to fall in love with it, but it turned out to be an absolute favorite.
These Fleeting Shadows by Kate Alice Marshall - Another gem from Kate Alice Marshall! These Fleeting Shadows was weird and romantic and heartbreaking, and I loved it.
Just Like Home by Sarah Gailey - Just Like Home was such a surprise! Now I need to read everything Sarah Gailey has ever written.
What Moves the Dead by T. Kingfisher - I had so much fun with this creepy retelling of Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher.
Sundial by Catriona Ward - Sundial has solidified Catriona Ward as an autobuy must read author for me!
White Smoke by Tiffany D. Jackson - I need to read more by Tiffany D. Jackson because I loved White Smoke.
Our Last Echoes by Kate Alice Marshall - It's no surprise to me that Kate Alice Marshall landed on my list twice!
Bad Witch Burning by Jessica Lewis - By far my favorite YA horror of the year! I LOVED THIS BOOK.
Ghost Girl by Ally Malinenko - Ghost Girl was my favorite MG horror of the year. I highly recommend it!
Top Ten Tuesday is a feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
That's sort of amazing that a book that took almost its entirety to win your over was your favorite. It really snuck up on you
ReplyDeleteGhost Girl sure sounds interesting!

Piranesi has become an all-time favorite for me too. So thought provoking and beautiful. ~Lex (lexlingua.co)
ReplyDeleteI loved Piranesi! I'm glad you liked it. I read almost everything by Kingfisher, but haven't gotten to her latest yet.
ReplyDeleteTHESE FLEETING SHADOWS was too weird for me. I think I'd like OUR LAST ECHOES better, but I haven't gotten to it yet. Glad you enjoyed all these.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
I've heard such great things about PIRANESI. I'm looking forward to reading it some time.

Looks like you found some good ones. I haven't read any of these.
ReplyDeleteI still need to read What Moves the Dead! One book I can't believe I missed out on reading in 2022!
ReplyDeletePiranesi and What Moves the Dead are two I really want to read, especially after reading your reviews. :D
ReplyDeleteI read my first T. Kingfisher book last year. Now I want to read all of them.
