Goodreads Back to School With 2023'S New Campus Fiction and Dark Academia Novels

Back-to-school season always seems to arrive a little earlier with each passing year. It's a sign of summer waning, and those first in-store displays are especially dispiriting. Time marches forward.

Here at Goodreads World Headquarters, we prefer to look on the bright side of things. In honor of back-to-school season, we've assembled this collection of new novels largely set on the good old college or high school campus. Each of the titles here is a book published or forthcoming in 2023. Some are YA, most are not, and the genre variety is surprisingly rich.
