It's that time of year Raag Hags when we say goodbye to 2021 and get excited for 2022! We are looking back at all the incredible books we read this year on the podcast and awarding the Best Feels, Overall, Audio, Cover, Smut, and our personal favorites overall! Join us as we cackle away the New Year and reminisce about old favorites. To say we were surprised by the two genres that dominated the awards is an understatement. Just goes to show that you should go into reading with an open heart, and check out different sub-genres from time to time. You may be surprised what becomes your new favorite!Happy 2022 and we are so thankful you are here!
