Goodreads Top Books This Week

Goodreads users are excited about five new books this week including Peck & Peck by Bonnie Garmus.

“This isn’t a quick, fast-paced page-turner or a feel-good romance. It’s odd, quirky, thought-provoking, heartbreaking, and beautiful in a way I’ve never experienced before.”

Peck & Peck by Bonnie Garmus

Set in 1980s New York City, this novel follows Batter Gray, a man who dreams of being a poet despite family discouragement.

The Museum of Modern Love by Mariko Turk

This novel follows Miki who recreates a 1965 love story with her crush Auden Peck after his disappearance.

“This is a heartfelt, multi-layered read that blends romance, history, and personal growth in a way that feels both accessible and meaningful.”

Off the Reservation by Stephen Graham Jones

This sequel begins after a massacre on the Blackfeet reservation, following Nathan Yellow Tail as he searches for bones of a boy from Carlisle Indian Industrial School.

“Off the Reservation by Stephen Graham Jones is such a wild, disorienting and wonderfully unsettling experience.”

As You Wake Break the Shell by Becky Chambers

This sci-fi novel follows Cora, a pilot suffering a mindbleed, who seeks help from Signy, a botanist on their resource-scarce planet.

“I’m in awe of Becky Chambers. This is the type of soft sci-fi you want to crawl inside and fall asleep to.”
