A Book a Year Since Birth

Here's my favourite book from each year I've been alive up until today, starting with Mysterious Skin in 1995 and ending with Babel in 2022. I didn't include something from this year, as I haven't read many new releases yet. I wouldn't say every book on this list is a favourite, or even something I would recommend. Not every year had a lot books to choose from, but at least there was at least one book from each year!
