With another new year comes another Goodreads roundup of what its members are most looking forward to. The list has 63 titles, was determined by looking at what 125 million members have added to their “Want to Read” shelves, and is kind of staggering in scope. There’s a variety of genres, adult and YA listings, some series continuations, and a few debuts. Some smash hitters return as well, like Simone St. James, Stephen Graham Jones, Emily Henry, Mait Haig, Stephen King, Casey McQuiston, and Tia Williams, and there’s even a new memoir by RuPaul.
