Hello, 2023. The new year brings a clean slate, a renewed sense of purpose and (let’s be honest) a break from all of the holiday hubbub. The first month of the year was made for reading. New reading resolutions, a step back from socializing and some seriously frigid arctic temps all basically scream, “Get yourself under a blanket and read the day away.”

There’s no disappointing this month with books as fresh as the winter air hitting bookshelves. While we eagerly await the rest of the great books coming out in 2023, here’s a list of the top picks in January you won’t want to miss.
