I’d love to know what were your best reads of ‘22 !

#(links go to the english goodreads page unless there's no english translation) #social creature was just okay really but i love books about toxic female friendships and i've read so many disappointing ones #it makes this one stand out in comparison #also the delphine de vigan book is topical re: my last post. about youtuber children #it's been translated in quite a few languages but not english yet #my top 3 of the year is all nonfiction. the jodi kantor book + svetlana alexievich + sylvain tesson #and la princesse de clèves but it's mostly because i love 17th century french so much!
