Spring and summer 2024 brought so many amazing books. So many of my preorders came in – it was like Christmas just about every Tuesday. Katherine Center, Abby Jimenez, Carley Fortune, Emily Henry, Tarah Dewitt…the season of romance (mostly)! I can only hope to have as great of a season next year! But what about the books still to come?
But there are some great books still ahead of us yet! These are some of my most anticipated book releases for the rest of the year. This is everything I personally have on preorder that come out in the remainder of 2024:
…looks like I’m going to have an exciting September, too!
Here One Moment | Liane Moriarty
Goodreads | Amazon (Hardcover) (eBook) (Audible)
I love Liane Moriarty. Her deep character work and puzzle-style plot structures are so yummy. With a cover that alludes to the butterfly effect and a high concept premise about death predictions, I can’t wait to read this intriguing novel!
Release Date: September 10th, 2024
We Solve Murders | Richard Osman
Goodreads | Amazon (Hardcover) (eBook) (Audible)
The Thursday Murder Club was such a refreshing and humorous story about geriatric sleuths. I’ve been reading more and more mysteries and thrillers, and I’m hoping the tone of this one is similar to his other work. There’s something about investigating a murder! So compelling!
Release Date: September 17th, 2024
If I Were You | Cesca Major
Goodreads | Amazon (Hardcover) (eBook) (Audible)
Maybe Next Time was the first bowl-me-over book of the year. It hit me in all the feels at exactly the right time in my life. Automatic must-buy author for me after that. I actually got an arc of this book on netgalley, so I get to read it early. Another interesting premise, I can’t wait!
Release Date: September 24th, 2024
Intermezzo | Sally Rooney
Goodreads | Amazon (Hardcover) (eBook) (Audible)
Beautiful World, Where Are You? Is a stunning book. I read it three times in a row. Normal People gutted me, then set my guts on fire. Not sure I can bring myself to read it again, ever. Sally Rooney’s writing is sharp and philosophical and at times damn poetic. Absolutely I’m going to read this…just might be through squinted eyes!
Release Date: September 24th, 2024
Where the Library Hides | Isabel Ibanez
Goodreads | Amazon (Hardcover) (eBook) (Audible)
With the way What the River Knows ended, I’d be crazy not to be on the edge of my seat to continue the Secrets of the Nile series. I was pleasantly surprised by book one, and I can’t wait to see what happens next! If you’re looking for an accessible historical Egyptian fantasy with a strong female lead, don’t sleep on this!
Release Date: November 5th, 2024
Variation | Rebecca Yarros
Goodreads | Amazon (Paperback) (eBook) (Audible)
I read In the Likely Event this year and it absolutely blew me away. I loved every minute of it, and couldn’t put it down. Tears, chills, intense longing…makes this new contemporary romance release from Rebecca Yarros a must read on my list. Looks like it’s going to be on Kindle Unlimited, too!
Release Date: November 19th, 2024
Wind & Truth | Brandon Sanderson
Goodreads | Amazon (Hardcover) (eBook) (Audible)
The fifth volume of the Stormlight Archive! The culmination of the first half of the series! More than 1,000 amazing pages practically guaranteed! I have recommended this series to so many people. It’s the most incredibly done fantasy I’ve ever read, and every book has surprised me in the best way. What a name, too!
Release Date: December 6th, 2024
