2022 Reading List

As January kicked off I dove headfirst back into reading and just couldn’t get enough. I read seven books last month, from thrillers, to romance novels, to popular YA stories. There so many great ones that I just had to put together a post to share in case any of you are in need of a good read! I plan to continue to post what I’m reading throughout the year, so be prepared for more book shares.

1. Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

I rated this book a 4/5 on Goodreads. It was slow to start for me, but once I got into it, I absolutely loved it. The storyline was both sad and heart-warming at the same time, and it was hard not to fall in love with the main character by the end of the book!

2. People We Meet On Vacation

Full disclosure, I downloaded this book last summer and picked it up and put it back down several times. I loved the author’s previous book “Beach Read”, and I really wanted to love this one too. I’m not entirely sure why I had such a hard time getting into it the first time, but I’m so glad that I gave it another chance. I rated this book a 4/5  as well. It was an easy and fast read once it got going. It was a great second-chance romance story that I would definitely recommend.

3. Reminders of Him

I think it goes without saying that Colleen Hoover can do no wrong! I haven’t read a single book of hers that I didn’t love, and this one was no exception. Reminders of Him was such a sad storyline that kept me binge reading. I rated this one a 5/5.

4. The Best of Friends

I think that I picked this book because it was recommended for me on Kindle Unlimited and I was intrigued. The story was really tough to read as a mom, but the suspense kept me going. I rated this one a 5/5.

5. Every Last Secret

Another suspenseful and dark book, but also another one that I couldn’t put down. I gave this one a 4/5. I definitely recommend, especially if you like thrillers.

6. The Good Lie

So many dark books in a row. The Good Lie is by the same author as “Every Last Secret” and definitely delivered lots of crazy twists. I rated this one a 5/5.

7. The Unhoneymooners

After reading multiple thrillers I needed something a little lighter and more upbeat. This book was just the thing. It was silly and romantic, and just easy. I gave this one a 4/5.
