Goodreads Members' 63 Most Anticipated Books of 2024
Another year of books has come and gone, bringing those melancholy feelings of time passing, things changing, and mortality looming. The best remedy for this, we’ve found, is looking forward to a new year of books! As it happens, 2024 is going to be a whirlwind.
Some specifics: At the end of each calendar year, the Goodreads editorial team pivots to track all incoming books slated for U.S. publication in the upcoming year. We crunch the numbers on how many readers are adding these titles to their Want to Read shelves. That data informs our curated list of the Most Anticipated new releases. In short, this list is determined by you and your fellow readers!
Some highlights of 2024: Matt Haig, author of The Midnight Library, returns with another existentially inspiring adventure—this time in Ibiza!—with The Life Impossible. Cristina Henríquez (The Book of Unknown Americans) chronicles the historical miracle of the Panama Canal in The Great Divide. And Percival Everett delivers a bold reimagining of Huckleberry Finn with his highly anticipated novel, James.
Mystery fans, watch for new books from Alex Michaelides, Stacy Willingham, and Simone St. James, plus Stuart Turton’s enticingly titled The Last Murder at the End of the World.
In the speculative fiction aisle, look for new fantasy from T.J. Klune and Kelly Link, new horror from Stephen Graham Jones and Amanda Jayatissa, and a new hard SF series from the writing team known as James S.A. Corey (The Expanse saga). We’ve also introduced a new category for the genre hybrid known as romantasy, featuring faerie fun, Norse mythology, and the latest from Sarah J. Maas’ hot Crescent City series. For traditional romance, we’ve got new books from Casey McQuiston, Tia Williams, and Ali Hazelwood.
Young adult readers, make some shelf space for series installments from Xiran Jay Zhao (Iron Widow) and Tomi Adeyemi (Legacy of Orïsha series). Also, a vampiric heist story!
Of course, the new year is always a good time to discover new authors. We’re tracking the buzzy debut from The Bullet Swallower, which is being described as Cormac McCarthy meets Gabriel García Márquez. Also on the radar: the debut cozy mystery How to Solve Your Own Murder and the AI weirdness of Annie Bot.
Finally, we’ve got another crazy good lineup of nonfiction, with new books on basketball, immigration, Greek goddesses, and how to navigate information overload. (Like this list!) Plus: RuPaul!

I can't wait for The Housemaid is watching. Freida McFadden did a really good job on the first two books of the series.
I cannot wait for Leigh Bardugo's new novel! "Indian Burial Ground" looks like it'll be a good time too!
The Grandest Game releases on my birthday!
Solving your own murder caught my eye! Also Erik Larson's newest is on my list!!!
For me the Threads that Cut by Kika Hatzopoulou is coming too. I loved her first one.

Xiran Jay Zhao really has the best author photo.
CAN’T WAIT FOR CRESCENT CITY 3 <33333333
Next books in The Mad Max series by Franklin Horton and another series he writes The Borrowed World. Also next book in series, Neighborhood Watch by EE Isherwood. I have a few other series I'm waiting for next in series also.
Maybe it's about time I start the Sarah J Maas books. Just worried there will be too much romance. Not really my thing.
i have been waiting for crescent city 3 for a year now, and i CANNOT WAIT ANY LONGER… but there is one more book that we all have been waiting for for even longer… and that would of course be GOD OF WAR -AVA AND ELI’S BOOK!!!! AAAAHHHHH
