Goodreads, the go-to online resource for learning about new books and connecting with other readers, recently released its list of the biggest and buzziest book launches of spring 2020. The 33 books on the list span seven genres — fiction, mystery and thriller, horror, fantasy and science, nonfiction, young adult, and romance — so there's something for everyone. A handful of books are already available to order. All of them are available to preorder and will ship on or shortly after their publication date.
There's no shortage of critically acclaimed authors on the list, like Emma Straub, The New York Times bestselling author of "The Vacationers." Straub's new book, "All Adults Here" explores the challenges that follow mothers and their adult children through multiple generations; it releases on May 4. "Wow, No Thank You" is Samantha Irby's latest book of humorous essays, this time about Irby's adjustment to life in the Midwest, and it released on March 31.
The list also includes exciting debuts: Janella Angeles' love for musical theater shines through in "Where Dreams Descend," which Goodreads compares to "Moulin Rouge" and "The Phantom of the Opera." The book is out on August 25. "The Mother Code" by biochemist Carole Stivers, also out on August 25, offers a futuristic look at a world filled with genetically engineered children and explores what it truly means to be a parent.
Whether you're anticipating a beloved author's return or looking to explore a new genre, keep reading to learn more about Goodreads' picks for "The Big Books of Spring."
