The Best Books of 2024, According to Publishers Weekly

Books

Wake up, babe — a new Best Books of the Year just dropped. Somehow, we’re already on to the second list like this before Halloween (B&N had the first). Listen, we’re not complaining! But also, we hope this trend doesn’t encroach into earlier in the year. Just saying.

As for the list itself, there are 10 books on it that are mostly not a surprise. The bestselling Adventures of Huckleberry Finn retelling James by Percival Everett is there, as is the popular artist-becoming-undone tale All Fours by Miranda July. There are also nonfiction works like Survival Is a Promise: The Eternal Life of Audre Lorde by Alexis Pauline Gumbs and By the Fire We Carry: The Generations-Long Fight for Justice on Native Land by Rebecca Nagle.

The full list of the best books of 2024 according to Publishers Weekly is as follows:
