These are our favorite books to read in 2022...
Anatomy of anxiety By Elaine Vora, MD
Recommended by: Kate
What I loved about this book is how dr. Vora manages to hold multiple realities of experiencing anxiety at the same time, while challenging the ways we treat mental illness in Western medicine. It reflects her unique experience and training, as a licensed psychotherapist and expert in functional medicine. As I learn how to listen to my body more intently, I find that I have a clearer understanding of how my lifestyle contributes to fluctuations in my moods, irritability, and physical symptoms. I am grateful for her work.
Good Mothers School By Jesamine Chan
Recommended by: Bridget, Brand Manager
I believe great books do more than just entertain - they make a lasting impression. This definitely did the trick! This book was an intense read, yet completely captivating. I don't want to give away too much, but for several days after I thought about what "mistakes" I had as a mother and how (if!) I would live in this institution.
I thought it was just me (but it's not) Written by Bren Brown
Recommended by: Greta, Content Creator
I just love Brené and the way you write. After reading her books, I always leave plenty to process in a way that doesn't feel overwhelming. She speaks with a lot of conviction but also with a great deal of grace, which I really appreciate. I think anyone at any stage of life would find joy at this point!
Midnight Library by Matt Haig
Recommended by: Kate
"Midnight Library" is about a woman who decides to end her life but then finds herself caught between life and death, and has a chance to experience a different life that she could have had had she made different decisions. The main character is a mirror for any of us who felt like there had been real disappointments in life. This book will probably make anyone who reads it think about life a little differently; It will mean something unique to each reader.
in five years by Rebecca Searle
Recommended by: Jackie, managing editor
I devoured this book positively. It follows Dannie Kohan, a woman who plans her life down to the last detail. She successfully clears an important job interview and accepts her boyfriend's marriage proposal all in one day. Everything goes according to plan, until she falls asleep that night and wakes up in a different apartment next to a different man. You spend one hour here, five years in the future; When she wakes up back in her home, nothing will ever be the same again.
convincing voice? surah. Is this book what you think it will be? of course not.
This book is about love, friendship and heartbreak - one of the most diverse stories in humankind. She tore my heart wide open and let me think about it after a long time.
Marigold fall by Suzanne Meisner
Recommended by: Nancy, Executive Assistant
"A beautiful scarf binds two women affected by tragedy in this emotional, poignant novel."
I loved the character development in this book. I felt so connected to each person. It's historical fiction that I love, and the story weaves together past and present events in a very interesting way.
