#1 – The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston
This book was so good that as soon as I finished it, I immediately hit play and started the audio again. It’s not only my #1 for this year, but it’s high on my favorite books of all time! Please read it. If you don’t love it like I did, don’t tell me, I want us to still be friends. ❤️

This book is full of Christmas Spirit! It is so clever and inventive. I loved this premise and these characters, I have thought about this book all through the holiday season.
All in all, 2022 has been an incredible year full of GREAT books! I could have added even more to this bestie list. If 2023 has half as many wonderful books, I can’t wait to see what’s to come!
I wish you all the very Happiest New Year and I hope 2023 brings love, health, prosperity, all of the happiness and great books!
