The first month of 2024 has some interesting books to hit the shelves. Keep reading to find out the best new books released in January 2024!
As we settle in the new year, now is a good time to look at some of the best books to be released in January. There aren’t too many big-name authors releasing a novel in January. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t any books worth checking out.
An author that may be familiar to many is Alex Michaelides as he returns with his latest thriller, The Fury. It is a novel that I was able to read and I enjoyed this twist on the typical whodunit genre. If you are a fan of Michaelides, then you will love this novel.

Hopefully, I get around to reading most of the books on this list. Like many people, I am still trying to read books published last year, trying to make a dent into my to-read list. And a bunch of these books will be added on to that list. You can see the full list below!
