Some of my most anticipated books of 2022

I have such a love/hate relationship with these lists. Sure, it’s fun to see what’s around the corner. One must at all times be prepared, surely. And one should definitely make sure not to lose track of new releases from favourite authors. But I’m not a very patient person. Scratch that, when they handed out the patience skill, they skipped me completely. So when I look at the goodies on the list here, all I can think is I want them NOW, GIMME! Whilst obviously all the way ignoring the teetering TBR pile behind me. As you do.

*ahem*

This list is by no means complete. There is A LOT coming! I probably missed some, completely forgot some and there are probably some that haven’t been announced yet. There will be new books by Louise Beech, Michael Malone, Alafair Burke, Samantha Downing, Ruth Ware, Peter Swanson and Helen Fields even has two books coming out (One For Sorrow in March, The Last Girl to Die in September) but I couldn’t list everything. As it is, I intended to stop this list in June but then noticed some really exciting ones after that and I just had to keep going. Anywho!

Listed by publication day for hardback format, as that is my own preferred format, with links to Goodreads if you want to find out more about them.
