November TBR (2024)

 Hey guys, this is Abi here, 

And I'm back with my November TBR (2024)! 

With another trip to Cardiff on the cards, I'm expecting to get a lot of reading done. 

(Not that I need to, since I'm nearly at the same page count as last year, even with two months left to go!)

But anyway, I have some cracking books on my list for the month, so I best get on! 

I hope you enjoy it, and as always, feel free to comment down below, what books are on your list! 


1. Daydream (Maple Hills #3), by Hannah Grace

I'm just under halfway through with this, and with how much I'm liking this, and how long the train journey is to Cardiff on Wednesday, I thought it best that I get this TBR out before then, so I was able to include it. 

Daydream was the novel every Hannah Grace fan was begging her to write, the minute we all put down Icebreaker, way back when. Because every fan fell in love with Henry, even though he wasn't the main focus. Now I'm reading his book, his and Halle's, I think this might be my favourite of the lot. 

I know I'm going to be extremely sad when it sinks in that I don't have another Maple Hills book coming out after this but I'm enjoying it so much, I don't mind that I'm racing through it. 

I'm curious as for what Hannah Grace releases next, but whatever it is, I know I'm going to love it. 

2. Queenie, by Candice Carty-Williams 

I don't quite know what to make of this book. I know it's a very important, casual read book that deals with some serious issues- I became interested in this book because I know it has a good amount of representation in it- but I've heard it hasn't been structured as well as it could be. 

Overall, I'm intrigued as for what I'll think of it. 

I received this for my birthday in September, and out of all of the books I received, I think it's the one I'll have to work the hardest to pick up, which is why I'm choosing to read it first. 

What I know of the plot is, Queenie has recently gotten out of a long-term relationship, and is trying to deal with it. It was a messy break-up, and Queenie makes some very questionable decisions whilst trying to get past it. It's got a light-hearted feel, but I know it goes to some extremely dark places. 

Queenie doesn't feel like a book I want to book, but more like a book I need to read. I hope I enjoy it. 

I know a lot of you guys may have read this book, it was a big thing when it came out in 2019. Let me know your thoughts in the comments, if you have?

3. The Girl on the Cliff, by Lucinda Riley 

Somehow, I managed to run out of days before getting to this in October. So I'm including it in November's list. This is the last Lucinda Riley I have to read before I'm all caught up, and I'm finishing it with one of her earlier novels. No exact reason why, it just so happened to be the one Lucinda Riley book my colleague didn't own. 

Part of me will be glad when I've finished her entire completed work, but I know it might take me a while to get over it too.  
The Girl on the Cliff, is set in Ireland, it's about a girl and a woman that meet on a cliff, and when they get to know each-other, the impact they have on each-other's lives is ground-breaking. Because their two families lives are intertwined throughout history. 

That's all I know or want to know. I know there's death within this book, and I know it'll be emotional. I'm ready to finish the saga of books I've been hooked to, for the past 15 months. Wish me luck, everyone. 

4. Think Again (Girls), by Jacqueline Wilson 

I was scrolling through some of the reviews on Goodreads when I first heard about this book, and the top comment is: "reads synopsis 'oh thank god she's no longer with that prick Russel'" and I genuinely burst out laughing. Bloody hell, the nostalgia is strong with this guys. 

If you didn't know, the Girls trilogy was released back in the early 2000s, and Think Again follows the same characters; Ellie, Magda and Nadine, but as adults. I was so happy to know we were going to get answers about how Ellie, Magda and Nadine turned out as adults, I forgot to find out when it was actually out! But it's here, and it's in my hands. 

I can't wait to pick this book up. I really can't wait. 

And I don't even think I've gotten fully excited yet. 


Okay! Those are all the books I'm hoping to get to in the month of November- I'm genuinely hoping I stick to the TBR this time- because I truly love this selection of books. 

I hope you have a wonderful evening- don't forget to comment down below- and I'll see you all soon! 

Byeeee!
