As I have said and thought repeatedly over this year, 2024 is one of the most exciting years for books releases in recent memory. There are a heap of rereleases, new translations and original works from authors we know and love. Just to keep track of everything coming up has been challenging. I have been compiling this list for months and every time I think I am finished something new pops up. Think of the following list as incomplete but I have tried to cover some of the really interesting things coming up over the next 6 months. I am sure as soon as hit publish I will realise how much I have left out so apologies. Feel free to get in touch and tell me what I have missed and I will update this document as the year progresses.
