I read over 80 books in 2022.

This is a new personal best for me, at least in my adult life; when I was younger I was never without a book and I reckon that I read more than I do now. But truthfully I never bothered to keep track.

This was a great reading year with 10 five-star reads. Stay tuned for that piece to drop (and also read here for an explanation of why it is so delayed).

Also in turn I read a handful of 1 and 2-star reads. (And these are books that I managed to finish).

But what about the ones that I didn’t?

I’m a mood reader. I need to be in the right headspace to get into a book, and even more so to continue with it.

Truthfully some of these I just wasn’t in the right headspace to receive them. And others- just bad.

Out of a prolific reading year, what are the books that I just couldn’t bear to continue with?
