The TBR 22 in '22 Challenge was hosted by Gilion at Rose City Reader. The goal was to read 22 books from my TBR shelves in 2022. The bigger goal, of course, is to read books I already own. These books could be on my shelf or on my Kindle. Books I read for other challenges counted as well. So here are the books I completed in 2022 that fit the criteria:
