I started to make this post when I noticed some of these were interesting, and they did not fit into my Mega Stats. It is also a last-ditch effort to talk about books/reviews I enjoyed this year before it becomes literally old news. I hope you get as much fun out of looking at these, as I did putting it together.
Since the purpose of this post is to cover as much variety as I can, although some book reviews might have shown up multiple times, I bumped them off to make way for the next in line.
My complete lists of long lists are:
- 2022 Long List I: Inspirational and/or Informational
- 2022 Long List II:Series’ I started or Continued
- 2022 Long List III: Cozy reads of varying gravity
- Long List IV: Thrilling and Restless Reads
