November is here, and we’re officially in hibernation mode.

All we want to do is curl up on the sofa with a bundle of books we’ve been itching to read, and that’s exactly what we plan on doing this month.

November is the month we finally tackle our reading list, but if you’re looking for some new reads, then you’ve come to the right place.

October and November are always great months for books, and this year has been no different.

We’ve been spoiled for choice with new releases over the past few weeks, and we’ve gathered up the top five titles you just have to add to your reading list in November.

Your TBR pile will simply be incomplete without them.
