Introducing my top most anticipated reads of 2025! I skipped a couple I'm still reviewing, and the heavily hyped ones are at the end. I wanted to focus on books I'm psyched for that you may not have heard of! Anything catch your eye?

2025 hopefuls

I was tagged by @libraryleopard to share some books I want to read in 2025! I decided to keep it to 2025 releases specifically because I couldn’t strike a good balance between new books, paperback releases, and my own TBR! and I love sharing my excitement for upcoming books that folks might not have on their radar yet. 📚✨

[books listed in images:

The Maiden and Her Monster by Maddie Martinez, an adult sapphic retelling of the myth of golem (I’ve actually had the pleasure of reading this one and I can’t wait for it to be out in the world.)

A Treachery of Swans by AB Poranek, a sapphic YA Swan Lake retelling!

The Sea Eternal by Emery Robin, the sequel to one of my favorite books and a queer scifi retelling of Antony and Cleopatra (the first one was Julius Caesar!)

The Starving Saints by Caitlin Starling, adult medieval horror with sapphic bacchanalia.

The Sacred Space between by Kalie Reid, an adult gothic romantasy by a dear friend!!

Hazelthorn by CG Drews, I still need to read his other one but I saw AJW and Shirley Jackson as comps so I will be there.

The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri, a sapphic fantasy with knights and witches and reincarnation comped to The Green Knight and The Starless Sea (I nearly pass out from excitement every time I think about this one for real. I’m taking deep breaths rn.)

Fate’s Bane by C.L. Clark, if R&J were cursed sapphic artificers, so yeah i’m there. (also shout out to the Ambessa book, I’m also SO hyped for that.)

The Second Death of Locke by VL Bovalino, an epic fantasy comped to Gideon the Ninth and Six Deaths of the Saint.]

This is the year of devastating knight romances and reincarnation and I genuinely could NOT be happier about it.

tagging: @haliespages @caitsbooks @etherealacademia @yaboywillyshakes @hayniacstuck / anyone else who wants to make one! just tag me cuz i’d love to see your anticipated reads :)
