pickI must say, I think this was one of my favourite years for memoirs. Both of my favourite non-fiction reads for 2022 were memoirs. 1) I‘m glad my mom died. 2) Crying in H Mart. #bestof

It‘s the exciting time of the year when we all post our “Best of 2022” lists, so these are my top non-fiction books for this year!
A Village in the Third Reich
Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

That‘s the end of my #bestof #2020. Turns out my most read genre were non-fiction novels about the Second World War.
These are my favourite novels of 2020.

I honestly thought I was done with YA because I have read every trope available, but the last few two months of 2020 convinced me otherwise:
-Clap when you land by Elizabeth Acevedo
-The Light in Hidden Places by Sharon Cameron (after a true, remarkable story)
-The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E Schwab
-Hold Still by Nina LaCour (I cried)

I am a bit confused that I didn‘t read a lot of fantasy books this year, but the ones I read were awesome!
-The Fifth Season by N.K Jemisin
I‘m trying to take my time with the rest of the series.
-The Southern Book Club‘s Guide to Slaying Vampires by Grady Hendrix
This book is so much fun!

I had a lot of fun with a few re-reads of my favourite childhood series as well (I also discovered that my crush on Percy Jackson is alive and kicking 💙):
-Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan
I am so pumped for the series! Also looking forward to read the other series with Percy, Apollo, Sadie & Carter and Magnus.
-His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman
Season 2 is soooo good!!

One of my goals this year was to read more non-fiction, and I found quite a few masterpieces:
-The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women killed by Jack the Ripper by Hallie Rubenhold
-Invisible Women by Caroline Criado-Perez
-Hood Feminism by Mikki Kendall
-Know my name by Chanel Miller

We‘ve done #GratefulReads, we‘re voting on GoodReads awards. Soon we‘ll be doing #BestOf. I‘m curious what were your #WorstOf2019?
2 of mine were graphic novels, 1 middle grade, & 3 poetry which are probably #unpopularopinions based on, you know, little things like Pulitzer prizes 🤣.
So tell us, what would you recommend we stay away from? What books‘ great reviews left you scratching your head? What one(s) wouldn‘t you wish on your worst enemy?
