Books of the year. Technically, novels of the year. I was going to do lists for poetry and non-fiction, as well as fiction, but I read about a dozen poetry collections, and about ten non-fiction books that I enjoyed, so it wouldn’t really be a “best of” list, just a summary. You can revisit my monthly round-ups if you’re curious. However, I read a veritable cart-load of novels this year and here’s the top ten, in roughly chronological order (only because I used my Goodreads list to remind me, and that’s chronological). These aren’t the best novels of 2022, they are the best novels I read in 2022. Some are new; others are new to me. I heartily recommend them all.
Tokyo redux and the Tawada book have been on my nightstand for months. I definitely need to get to them. I also have a copy of the mountains sing, which I bought in early 2021 but I wasn’t able to really read it because it was so sad. Anyway this was a great list. And I would love to read your article About scattered all over the earth.
