It’s time for the 2022 Quarter Year Crisis tag!

I’ve been seeing this tag everywhere lately, and I really love it so I had to jump in on it before it’s too late in the year! Thank you to Roisin @ Roisin’s Reading for creating this tag! ♥

1. How many books have you read so far?

49! My goal for the year is 200 and I’m currently 9 books behind schedule.

2. Have you already found a book you think might be a 2022 favorite?

I’ve had a few that I think could make the list at the end of the year, but the top one has been The House in the Cerulean Sea!

3. If not, what was your favorite book you read that wasn’t quite five star?

This question made me realize I haven’t had very many 4 or 4.5-star reads this year! I guess my “favorite but not quite 5 stars” read so far has been Weather Girl, though.

4. Any 1 star books / least favorite book of the year?

I’ve DNFed a few books that I really disliked, but I’ll go with one I finished and really hated: The Bone Cutters. It was badly written, the characters were awful, and it was one of the most fatphobic books I’ve ever read.

5. Most read genre so far?

According to my genre tracker chart in my reading spreadsheet, 33.9% of my reads have been horror and another 33.9% have been romance. So, horror and romance are tied for my most read genres right now!

6. A book that surprised you?

I feel like, every time I get a question like this in a tag, I feel so bad because I never have a positive answer… 😅 but I was very unpleasantly surprised by The Wall of Winnipeg and Me, which I thought I would love but I wasn’t a big fan of at all.

7. Book that’s come out in 2022 already that you want to read but haven’t yet?

Sundial! I was supposed to start a buddy read of this a couple of weeks ago, but life kind of got in the way. I’m hoping to read it soon, especially since I liked The Last House On Needless Street so much!

8. One goal you made that you’re succeeding at?

My TBR jar goal! I had a goal to pull 3 books from my TBR jar each month and read them, and I’ve done really well with it so far.

9. One goal you made you need to focus on?

My 2022 TBR. I picked 22 books for it and was hoping to read 2 a month, but I’m pretty far behind right now!

10. New to you bloggers/booktubers/bookstagrammer/booktokers for 2022 you recommend?

I’m ashamed to say that I have NOT been branching out and finding new bloggers or booktubers lately, and I haven’t been on tiktok in ages, but I do have some new-to-me bookstagrams to recommend:

I’m not sure who has done this tag already, so I’m just going to say anyone who would like to do it is tagged now! Please let me know if you do this tag so I can see your answers, because I thought these questions were unique and really fun!
