A Year in Books — 2022
31 books and quotes that shaped and inspired me in 2022
“A book is a garden, an orchard, a storehouse, a party, a company by the way, a counselor, a multitude of counselors.”
— Charles Baudelaire
The beginning of the new year is for many a time for reflection and review, as well as an opportunity to look ahead.

For the past five years now I have picked and shared a quote from each book. Below are the 31 books I read (or re-read) this past year, 2022, along with one quote that, for one reason or another, resonated with me.

“Your ears don’t close; they stay open to protect you. They are the primary self-preservation warning system for your reptilian brain.”
