The second half of 2025 feels so far away, but it will begin sooner than I think.
It’s interesting how slowly winter seems to pass by versus how quickly summer happens, at least in my experience. Do you feel the same way about the warm seasons where you live?
I once again have another Top Ten Tuesday blogger to thank this week, so stay tuned.
Let’s see what I can come up with for this list.
1. Sisters in the Wind by Angeline Boulley
Release Date: September 2
Why I Want to Read It: Books about foster care often pique my interest.
2. People Watching by Hannah Bonam-Young
Release Date: September 9
Why I Want to Read It: This looks like an adorable summer romance.
3. The Wilderness by Angela Flournoy
Release Date: September 16
Why I Want to Read It: There is nothing like reading a novel about friendships and how they evolve over many years.
4. Alchemised by SenLinYu
Release Date: September 30
Why I Want to Read It: Memory problems are one of the scariest issues the human body can have in my opinion. What a great premise for a story.
5. Cinder House by Freya Marske
Release Date: October 7
Why I Want to Read It: Cinderella was one of my favorite fairy tales as a kid, and I love reading retellings of it.
6. The Last Spirits of Manhattan: A Novel by John A McDermott
Thank you to Susan @ BlogginBoutBooks for blogging about this last winter.
Release Date: October 14
Why I Want to Read It: Two of the quickest ways to make me want to read something is to describe it as a ghost story and as something based on a true story, so this is floating up to the top of my TBR list.
7. Isn’t It Obvious? by Rachel Runya Katz
Release Date: October 21
Why I Want to Read It: Romance readers of Top Ten Tuesday, can you believe I picked two books from that genre this week? If any of you read them, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
8. I’ll Quit When I’m Dead by Luke Smitherd
Release Date: October 14
Why I Want to Read It: Fitness-themed horror is not something I think I’ve read before, but I can totally see how it could be a thing.
9. Hazelthorn by C.G. Drews
Release Date: October 28
Why I Want to Read It: Ooh, this cover looks scary. Plants can be a threat for sure, and not just for those of us with seasonal allergies.
10. Snake-Eater by T. Kingfisher
Release Date: November 11
Why I Want to Read It: Ms. Kingfisher has so many books coming out this year. I tried to refrain from including all of them in the TBR lists last week and this one, but I had to indulge one more time.
