If you go to "My Books" in GR and along the left column (toward the bottom), select "Year in Books," you should see various stats for your 2022 reading year. Which of these stats surprised you or stood out to you? Feel free to mention as many as you like.

David | 123 comments The "highest rated on goodreads" of any book I read last year was: Category Unknown. I gave it four stars but have no recollection of it.

It's always a surprise to me to look back and see which books I actually remember and which I just have a sort of general feel for but very little detail.

I was looking at my Year in Books...
- Shortest book listed is 11 pgs (GR lists We Are Made Of Diamond Stuff, but that was 113 pgs so looks like the page counts and the editions are off)
- Most Shelved book I read: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
- Reading Challenge: 4950% (because I got annoyed with GR pestering me about it and just put 2 as the number of books I wanted to read last year; I did the opposite this year and put 4,000)

Tracy (tstan) | 76 comments I always put 1 book. That’s a goal met on Jan 1!
I feel so accomplished, and then I’m an overachiever for the rest of the year.

I wasn’t surprised this year, but I was hit with how many books were just “meh”. I hope to have more standouts in 2023.
