Hollywood, Ending
John Green · 1 Nov
Best for: Readers who loved the warmth and humor of John Green's earlier novels and want that sincerity carried into an adult story about two young actors and the cost of public attention.
Where the Wildflowers Grow
Terah Shelton Harris · 31 Oct
Best for: Readers who want a slow, character-driven Southern novel about grief, survivor's guilt and found family, with a slow-burn romance rather than a plot-driven thriller.
A Court of Splintered Harmony
Sarah J. Maas · 31 Oct
Best for: Committed ACOTAR readers who want more time with the Night Court's Inner Circle and don't mind that this sixth instalment is the first part of a larger story and leaves everything unresolved.
The Wolf King
Lauren Palphreyman · 31 Oct
Best for: Readers who want a fast, steamy, kidnapped-princess werewolf romance set in the Scottish Highlands, with a love triangle and court politics, and who care more about chemistry and momentum than originality.
Lies and Weddings
Kevin Kwan · 31 Oct
Best for: Readers who want a quick, glossy, gossipy comedy of manners with a classic British inheritance plot underneath, plus some sharp class and race observations beneath the froth.
Rules of Prey
John Sandford · 31 Oct
Best for: Readers who like a fast, hard-edged thriller in which the killer is known from the start and the question is how he falls, and who are curious where a very long series begins.
