Hi friends,
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Today’s theme is: Most Anticipated Books Releasing in the Second Half of 2025.
I confess that when I went to look for what was releasing from July to December, I became so thrilled that I ended up with a list way longer than ten! Oh well, I will give them all to you.
Most are either sequels from series I loved or authors that are “one click” for me. And one who is a discovery for me but whom everyone is raving about: Sen Liyu .
July
August
September
October
November
Note that I really don’t like the cover of Brimstone and miss Callie Hart making her own cover with a romantic hero and butterflies on top!
December

I must also add Amina al-Sirafi’s sequel but we don’t have a cover yet…
Are any of these on your TBR?
Thanks for reading.

I can’t wait for Brimstone and Better in Black
Me either Jamsu!
Hope you enjoy these all! I didn’t know about some and others (like Marissa Meyer’s) I’ve been seeing on others lists. :) Thanks so much for visiting my list last week and apologies for not visiting here until now.
Don’t worry Rissi! I am busy too and I totally understand!
I think the Mandanna book wins for being on the most lists this week! Not my genre, but it does look like a cute read. I hope you enjoy all these.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

It’s true I saw it nearly everywhere!
There are so many I need to read on this list! Most excited about Sarah Beth Durst and Kate Alice Marshall’s releases!
I knew you would love these two Mogsy!
The new R.F. Kuang book should be fun ! :D
Right?
I have not heard of Alchemised until today, but I am very intrigued by it. I hope you enjoy all these once they are released!
I hope so too Alicia!
Good Spirits is high on my list. I love Borison’s books!
I love them too!
I forgot about the Enchanted Greenhouse and Alchemised but I’m definitely looking forward to those books too. Hope you’ll love all of these!
And I hope you love all yours!
A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping looks super cute. I loved The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
BK Borison is very popular this week!
Agreed!
I can’t wait for Brimstone and Better in Black! :D :D
I cant’ wait for these either!
I’m hoping to start The Enchanted Greenhouse soon! And I’m also planning on reading The Executioners Three and We Won’t All Survive. I hope you get to read these
I know I will read them…at some point!
Katabasis has been a popular pick this week!
I am a huge fan of her books!
I’ll have to look into SenLinYu. I haven’t heard of them before!
It was because of all the hype on instagram that I heard about it!
Not sure if they are, because I can’t read images with my screenreader :) I only can if these pictures have alt text.
Anyway, I hope you’ll enjoy these once you get to them!

Just dropping in to say hello! I’m happy you’ve had vacations! XO
Hi Sarah! It’s so nice that you came say hi! I hope you are good!
