2022 in books

this year my reading productivity fell off a little: i read 36 books - 3 a month, on average, which is a great feat!, but down from my highs in the 50s from a few years ago.  11 of those books meet some sort of diversity standard (as in, the main character or author is not white).  and 23 of those books were from my public library.

my favorite books of 2022:

invisible child, by andrea elliott

cloud cuckoo land, by anthony doerr

no one is talking about this, by patricia lockwood

tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, by gabrielle zevin

booth, by karen joy fowler

how the word is passed, by clint smith

pachinko, by min jin lee

here's to another year of great reading!, with gratitude to the universe for the time to read, the public libraries for all they provide to our society, and the gift of sight.
