Here's a final post to summarize my reading for 2022. I read a total of 52 books! It's 10 less than last year but I still consider it to be a decent amount of reading, especially for a high school student. So, below are some books I would definitely recommend everyone to read. I've been really busy lately and probably still will be for the next year or so but I will definitely still post. Cheers to books and reading! 1. The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides. The plot twist OMG. I did not see it coming at all. It was such an excellent read. My friend recommended it to me since she found it to be super exciting and we had a really interesting discussion on the book. Review coming in 2023!
