Books I Read in 2022 | Part 2

Books I Read in 2022 | Part 2

January 22, 2023 Posted by angelreads Monthly Wrap Up 1 Comment

 

Firstly I want to apologise for my lack of posts this week. It’s just been one of those weeks where I didn’t have much time to sit down and write. I got a new tattoo on Monday and it took a little out of me. Add work into the mix and that is my week gone. But we are here this week for the second part of my yearly wrap-up. 

Over the past few years, I’ve shared all my reads for the year. And today it’s the second part of my 2022 reads. You can check out what I read from January to April 2022, with today’s being all about the books I read from May to August.

So let’s get into it. Like in 2021, nearly everything I read last year is undoubtedly romance. And a lot of it was indie romance as well. Which just makes my little heart very happy. Nevertheless, let’s get into it. These are the books that I read from May To August 2022.

So it’s when I end up doing a lot of rereading. Nevertheless, I had another good batch of reading months here. 

There is one more part to go! Are you enjoying this series? And what did you read in 2022? Did you reach your reading goal? What were your favourite reads of 2022? What are you planning to read this year? So let’s chat!

    Borison, Daws, Bowen, Yarros, Perry, Liese, Zapata… So many amazing authors and books! I read those ones and LOVED them! I actually just read a book similar to Kulti that you might like. It was called First Flight, Final Fall by C.W. Farnsworth. Female college soccer star and male professional player. So good! Anyways. I’m glad you read so many great books this past year!

Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Vict Yeah, this is what I wanted. I really enjoyed Victoria Wilder’s Bourbon Boys series, and as soon as I heard she was writing a new series, around whiskey and women. Well, hell year. It took me a little bit to get into the book, but after a few chapters, I was hooked. 

Wyn is hiding, hiding from everyone, even when she is there. She is hiding behind so much, and damn, I don’t blame her. We don’t know everything from the start, but we start piecing things together, and my heart broke. And I was terrified for her. But she is a Crowne woman, and that means something. 

We’ve met Julian before, and while he intrigued me before, I am invested now. He is charming, secretive in the best way and will do anything at this point for Wyn. But he is also lost, and somehow he finds his way to Rumour and back into Wyn’s life. 

The romance is hot and steamy and everything that you want. The tension and chemistry in this one is high. Neither Wyn nor Julian wants to really give in or give up on one another, but a lot is standing in their way, honestly, mainly themselves. I just sat there giggling half the time because they are swoon-worthy. 

I would say this is the darkest Victoria Wilder book I’ve read, so double-check those trigger warnings before jumping in because there is a lot that happens. And I don’t think it’s going to die down any time soon because these Crowne women are badass, and I know things are only just getting started. 

Overall, Rumors & Whiskey is hot and sexual. The tension is dripping off the page, and then you are thrown into the terror and horrors of Rumour. You don’t know what is going to happen next, you don’t know who to trust, and there are so many more secrets that have yet to be revealed. I know I am ready for more. Are you?

Thank you to @atriabooksaus for an earc of Rumors & Whiskey 🥃. I’m in love.

March was a better reading month than February for March was a better reading month than February for me, and while I’m still stuck in my heated rivalry fanfiction era I managed to scrap out of it a little this month. 

I reread four books from the sweet omegaverse series and honestly had the best time. I also read two of my most anticipated reads of the year and had a blast. Sadly I did also have my first dnf of the year.

What did you read this March? Any standouts? What are you looking forward to reading in April? Let’s chat!
