Books Received from Publishers & Bookstores in 2022

This year, especially these last few months, has been really special and exciting. Not only did I receive many books from publishers and a bookstore, but I got so many fantastic opportunities after years of being part of the book community. Getting books to read and review always puts the biggest smile on my face, and it feels so rewarding. I am incredibly grateful for every opportunity and special moment this year, no matter how big or small.
