New Book Releases: November 2020

05/11/2020      Leave a Comment

November is always a quieter month for new book releases, which is a shame because it’s also my birthday month and I want to splurge! I have found a few new releases that I’m excited about, ranging from ones I’m mildly intrigued by to others that I cannot WAIT to read.

The Fires of Vengeance by Evan Winter
This is the sequel to The Rage of Dragons which I admittedly haven’t read but I’m super keen to get to it! It sounds very Spartacus-esque as it’s a story about revenge and slavery, but with dragons.

Rent a Boyfriend by Gloria Chao
The main character rents a boyfriend to impress her Asian parents and I assume she then starts to catch feelings and it sounds so cute??

How to Pack for the End of the World by Michelle Falkoff
I’ve read this one already but I very much enjoyed it! It’s about a girl called Amina who goes to boarding school and gets in with a group of people who like to talk about the end of the world. There’s a mystery, some games, parties, romance… it was adorable. My review will be going up next week!

The Flip Side by James Bailey
Sometimes you’re just in the mood for a rom com.

Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson
I haven’t caught up with the series yet but… obviously.

This is Not a Ghost Story by Andrea Portes
I’m very curious about this one and it sounds like it could be super creepy. I’m still in the mood for a bit of horror, so I might check it out while I’m in the zone.

These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong
I’ve seen this Romeo and Juliet retelling absolutely everywhere. I don’t normally like to read R&J retellings, but this one is set in 1920’s Shanghai so I do want to give this one a go!

The Boy Toy by Nicola Marsh
Again, a rom com is something I like to enjoy from time to time.

The Burning God by R F Kuang
OBVIOUSLY.

Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline
I didn’t love Ready Player One but I’m intrigued to see what goes on in this one.

Instant Karma by Marissa Meyer
The main character learns that she can cast instant karma so this sounds a bit like a revenge story wrapped up in a cute romance. Yes?!?!

Those Who Prey by Jennifer Moffett
This is a psychological thriller that is said to be perfect for fans of Sadie, and that is enough for me.

Which November new releases are you looking forward to? Are you going to be splurging along with me this month, or are you saving your money for the January wave?

Happy release day to The Effort! I'm so excited to read this apocalyptic story about people coming together to prevent a global crisis. Like I said the other day, I'm really into disaster stories lately ๐Ÿ˜Š

I'm smashing through my physical ARCs this week, which means it's almost time for me to read This is Not the Jess Show! I'm excited for this one, if a little cautious about how similar to The Truman Show it's going to be.

I absolutely blasted through The Girls I've Been by Tess Sharpe this week! I was worried I was getting slumpy from too much sff so I switched to a YA thriller and WHEW, it was excellent. 

The Girls I've Been is about a girl called Nora who is the daughter of a con artist (and also bi!). She's living her own life now away from her mother, and then someone tries to rob a bank while she's inside it.

This was so fast paced and I love that it was told in a non linear format. Trigger warnings for lots of things, though. You can find the full list on the author's website but the main one for me was domestic violence.

Because I like to read about other apocalypses dur Because I like to read about other apocalypses during pandemics, apparently.

 I've just started The Lightest Object in the Universe and I'm intrigued! Have you read it?

Siri, Who Am I? was my final read of 2020 and it was a fun one. While I didn't love how the main character treated others, particularly her attitude towards sex workers, I did like how fast paced this one was and the slight mystery element mixed with Rich People Drama kept me reading. Will I reread it? No. But I enjoyed my time with it well enough.

I just HAD to feature one of my favourite books of I just HAD to feature one of my favourite books of the year, and the start of one of my all time favourite series before the end of 2020. I adore The City of Brass so much, and I recommend it to everyone I come across. I've reread it three times now, and in 2021 I plan to make it four!
