Reading Log 2022

I logged 115 books, and I know that there were a some I read and never even put in my journal.

I ended up not having much in the way of book club last year despite my plans.

Last year’s books include some that I really enjoyed - I gave 11 books 5 stars this year!

• Ahmed Aziz’s Epic Year
• Carry On (Simon Snow, #1)
• Coyote Blue
• Essays of E.B. White
• Everything, Everything
• Firekeeper’s Daughter
• Highfire
• Humble Pi: When Math Goes Wrong in the Real World
• Pie in the Sky
• The Inquisitor’s Tale: Or, The Three Magical Children and Their Holy Dog
• Wayward Son (Simon Snow, #2)

Of all of those, Firekeeper’s Daughter is the most powerfully written; a gripping narrative. The Simon Snow series is the most tropey and fun for teens and adults looking for a non-traditional romance with dragons and magicians and absolutely one of my favorite fictional characters of all time: Baz.

They also include some that I did not enjoy - I gave 1 star to 3 books.

• Brave New World - ugh
• Gingerbread - this was an incredibly strange book with a very difficult narrative to follow
• The Unicorn Project - this was for my data science book club - it was like you took a bunch of business or management books and tried to invent a fictional word to get those same blurbs
