I had a great reading year in 2022. I read a lot of great new series that I loved like The Family Skeleton by Leigh Perry, Seaside Cafe by Bree Baker, Beacon Bakeshop by Darci Hannah, A Christmas Tree Farm by Jacqueline Frost, Cozy Capers by Maddie Day, and Grilled Cheese by Linda Reilly. I don't think I can pick out my favorite books for 2022 but I would recommend all of these series. Wishing you and your family a wonderful and happy New Year!!

[Priscilla_Bettis]

You make me want to read all of these! A Murder is Announced sounds particularly fun. I'm glad you gave Riley Sager another chance and liked it this time (oh, unless you read the good one first!).

[Veronica.Roni.V]

So many great reads I really need to get to soon. I didn't have a good reading year. I expect 23 to be a much better reading year for me. Thank you so much Amy for always putting great recommendations and content out, I appreciate you. Happy new year. 😃
