Reading Challenge 2022

 To be very honest, I didn't read any books in 2021. At least, I only read it but did not make a review of it. Then, most of them are poetry books. So, here is me with another resolution. I just wanna challenge myself in this new year. Let's see what will happen in the future, right? 

For the first challenge, I asked 12 books recommendations from 12 friends. The result of the recommendations is quite unexpected. Here is my result:
