Hot Off The Shelf: January 16th-23rd 2024
Welcome to 2024, everyone!
The year has started nicely! And it comes with a fresh start. What does a fresh start mean exactly? It means a new reading list and some more books added to your TBR! Whether you’re starting a new series or continuing one, plenty of books are on the shelves that need to be read. January 2024 is starting with a bang because of some awesome releases from our favourite genres.
Check out the books being released in the last two weeks of January.
‘A Court of Thorns and Roses’ Courts Breakdown
We know that Fantasy readers LOVE maps. Any map found when opening a book for the first time fills our hearts with joy. It draws the reader directly into the world and gives much-needed structure in visualizing where these characters reside. The map in A Court of Thorns and Roses shows where all the Faes live and the breakdown of the Courts.
‘A Court of Thorns and Roses’ Character Breakdown
Maude’s Book Club will FINALLY dive into A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas. There will be a total of six books in the series. There is a long list of characters in each court. But Maas breaks down all the courts so well. The world-building is possibly the best aspect of the series because of what Maas created.
The main characters of Tamlin, Rhysand and Feyre keep readers invested in the story and have become household names for Fantasy readers. MBC is thrilled to have these characters in January! And for those reading it for the first time, we’re hoping that our community members would want to continue the series!

‘Fourth Wing’ Guide: Dragons and Their Riders
When it comes to world-building in fantasy novels, there can be an overload of information. Character names can be mixed up and even hard to pronounce. In Fourth Wing and now Iron Flame, Rebecca Yarros has made it difficult for readers to keep up with all the dragons bonded to their riders with their signets. Yarros focuses on Violet Sorrengail and her two dragons, Tairn and Andarna, but there are so many characters that end up helping her in Iron Flame.
Hot Off The Shelf: November 21st-28th New Releases

This month focuses on mysteries, thrillers and some romance. Luckily for avid readers like us, plenty of books are being released in the next four months to keep us invested. Whether they are debut novels or long-awaited sequels, there is something for everyone.
Check out the books being released in the last two weeks of November.
New Characters in ‘Iron Flame’ by Rebecca Yarros
It has been one week since Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros was released, and some book lovers are already finished reading!
Some new characters are introduced within Part One of the book, which surprised many readers. The addition of these characters has made this sequel more engaging in light of the absence of Xaden Riorson. There are some strange things going on at Basgiath and the more we read, the more these additional characters show their true colours.
