2022 has us flipping pages FAST. From the fantastical to the gut-wrenching emotional, here are 10 reads from 2022 you won’t be forgetting any time soon.

All My Rage by Sabaa Tahir

Very unsurprisingly, Sabaa Tahir’s first contemporary novel filled our hearts with just about every emotion available and found a permanent place on our bookshelves. This book is a TREASURE.

Someone tell us WHERE is the movie adaptation?! This magical, fantastical debut from Emily J. Taylor has us daydreaming about checking into a traveling hotel on the daily.

It’s pretty hard to forget a book about forgetting! Remember Me Gone’s plot twist STILL has our heads spinning.

Akata Woman by Nnedi Okorafor

I think we can all agree that book 3 was WELL WORTH the wait.

The Bone Spindle by Leslie Vedder

Book 2, where are you?! Is it 2023 yet? This Sleeping Beauty retelling is definitely a 2022 favorite!

I Must Betray You by Ruta Sepetys

Just like every other Ruta Sepetys novel, this book went straight to our “keep forever” pile.

We so badly want to see the Kiss & Tell Come Say Hello tour live.
