Last week, we shared the Goodreads picks for the most anticipated books of the fall, but they’ve also put out lists for the most anticipated books of fall by genre. These are all published between the end of August and the end of December.

While the general most anticipated list was based on the number of Goodreads users adding titles to their Want to Read shelf as well as early user reviews, these genre lists are a “curated selection” that includes sequels from buzzy series, new releases from beloved speculative fiction authors, and exciting debuts.

There are 93 books on the full list, but here are some of the most exciting new releases included.
