Most Anticipated 2022 Releases for Your TBR

January – July 2022

Featured Genres: Romance, Women’s Fiction, Cozy Mystery, Non-Fiction

One of my favorite things about being a book blogger and bookstagrammer is that I have the opportunity to receive Advanced Review Copies of books before they’re published. Most of the physical copies I receive are from the publisher and occasionally from the author or through a book tour. Digital copies are almost always from NetGalley via the publishers. Either way, I absolutely love devouring new books and sharing my thoughts on what I’ve read.

Here’s an ongoing list of the books I’m most looking forward to that are being published in 2022. The list mostly contains romance and women’s fiction but there’s a few cozy mysteries and non-fiction picks as well. I’ll continue to update the list as new books are announced and I’ll also update the titles with links to my reviews for the ones that end up making it from the TBR pile into the read pile!

If you’re looking for back-list books that are already available:
- Books Read in 2021: all the books I read in 2021, ranked in ratings from high to low
- Ultimate Recommended Reading: a list of my favorite 4-5 star reads
Books listed below with links in the title will bring you to my review for that book!
Clicking the image of the book will bring you to Amazon.
