24 Books for 2024

With so many new books that are published every year, it’s easy for books on your TBR to get drowned out by the new releases. In 2023 I shared 23 books I wanted to read in 2023. This list contained a mixture of new releases and classics I have been meaning to read for years. I only read 9 of those books, but it was nice to be able to refer to this list on my Notion when looking for my next read. I’m a big mood reader, so if I didn’t feel like reading any of the books on that list I didn’t pressure myself to (clearly).

So now this is my list for 2024 (with a couple repeats from last year):

• Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt
• Keeper of the Lost Cities: Everblaze by Shannon Messenger
• Aurora Rising by Amie Kaufman
• Pineapple Street by Jenny Jackson
• Red Rising by Pierce Brown
• Every Summer After by Carley Fortune
• 20, 000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne
• Bleak House by Charles Dickens
• The Housemaid by Freida McFadden
• The Grandest Game by Jennifer Lynn Barnes
• The Reappearance of Rachel Price by Holly Jackson
• The Will of the Many by James Islington
• The School for Good Mothers by Jessamine Chan
