Top Ten Non-Fiction Books 2022

Top Ten Non-Fiction Books 2022


This year I read about a book and a quarter a day. This was my best year since I started keeping track, with a grand total of 438 books completed during the calendar year. Since reading and reviewing books is my hobby, I am grateful to have been able to read so many books this year. And have reviews written for all the books read. This year I read a close split between non-fiction over fiction. 

The year by the numbers:

438 Books
357 First Time Reads
302 5/5 Stars

Here are my top ten non-fiction books of 2022.

Top Ten Non-Fiction Books:

1. Devotions books from the Catholic Truth Society
2. Vision Books for young Readers from Ignatius Press
3. Books by Benedict XVI
7. Portraits in Faith and Freedom Series from Bethlehem Books
11. CTS Christion Shrines Series from the Catholic Truth Society

Bonus Books:

My reading has been up over each of the last few years. But I doubt I will ever have a year as high as this again. Which I attribute in part to Brandon Vogt’s course Read More Books Now, removing all games but 1 brain game from my devices. And I was commuting to work on a bus and read on the bus every day. But being 2022 everything is still topsy-turvy. And 2021 I worked from home all year. Reading took a little more discipline. I read more books this year. I managed to write reviews for all books read for the first time. 

Note: I do not include books that have been read in previous years and were reread this year in my top ten lists, they are sometimes in the bonus section. But if you want more options check out my favourite books year by year list.
