In terms of reading, 2022 wasn’t the year I reached new heights. In fact, it was quite the opposite. After tearing through book after book after book during 2020 and 2021, it’s safe to say I was a tiny bit burnt out on the reading front, and opted to spend much of my time writing and listening to podcasts instead. Not that reading should ever be a contest, even with oneself.
That said, I managed a quite respectable 27 books in total; a couple of which I’ve been recommending to anyone who loves to stick their nose in a book, including Shuggie Bain, Blacktop Wasteland, A Certain Hunger, and Bunny.
