Top Ten Tuesday: Books On My Spring 2025 TBR

Hi and welcome back to another Top Ten Tuesday post! Spring is officially starting this coming Friday, and it seems like the weather will be co-operating with this. So, it’s actually a good timing that this week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is “Books on my Spring 2025 TBR”! I did quite well on my Winter 2024 one, but will I take the leftovers with me into spring? This season is one for the “easier” books, even though I like to read a more complicated one every now and then. Let’s take a look, shall we? As usual, links in the titles will direct you to the book on Goodreads.

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 of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

  1. Phantasma by Kaylie Smith – This book has been on my TBR for a while now and I really hope to get to this one in spring. Preferably early on in the season.
  2. Terms and Conditions by Lauren Asher – Last year I read the first book in this “Dreamland Billionaires” series, so it’s time to pick up book 2 now, isn’t it?
  3. This Time It’s Real by Ann Liang – This book is getting a Dutch translation so it’s time to read my first Ann Liang novel, isn’t it?
  4. Fearless by Lauren Roberts – The final book in the “The Powerless Trilogy” and I’m curious for how this story will end.
  5. Powerless by Elsie Silver – It has been a year since I read the first two books in this “Chestnut Springs” series, so time to continue!
  6. Caught Up by Liz Tomforde – I expected to already have read this book by now, but no.
  7. James by Percival Everett – I added this book to the collection quite recently, but I hear mostly positive things about it.
  8. The Pearl That Broke Its Shell by Nadia Hashimi – This book made it to several TBR posts already, I’m sure of it. But the difference is that I finally have an ebook copy now.
  9. The Wedding People by Alison Espach – I’ve seen this book on multiple blogs lately and this fed my curiosity.
  10. Sunrise On the Reaping by Suzanne Collins – Of course, this list wouldn’t be complete without this release.

What books are you aiming to read this spring?

    I do like an easier read. If it gets too much my mind just wanders off 😂

    Enjoy them when you get to them!

    Have a great week!

    I’ve only read the first Powerless book, so I can’t say anything about the final book, but I hope you’ll love it! The Pearl That Broke Its Shell sounds amazing, I’ll have to check it out. I hope you’ll love all these books when you read them 🙂

    OOh nice! Phantasma made my list as well! Hoping to read that one after I finish my current and next read! That’s the plan at least! Lol! I also want to start the Powerless trilogy! I ordered a set from FL although it doesn’t include the last book, so I’ll wait til they create that one so I can have a complete set! Lol.

    Hope you enjoy all of these reads this Spring! Thanks for visiting my TTT!

    I haven’t read any of these, but I’ve heard of several! The cover of Phantasma gives Phantom of the Opera vibes, which could be intentional. The premise sounds interesting!

    I saw people sharing all about Hunger Games things on social media this week because of this release. 🙂 Hope everyone loves this new installment! All I’ve ever read is the original novel and I think Catching Fire. 🙂 Hope you enjoy these all and thanks for visiting my list!

    It’s amazing how hard it is to keep up with all the series, isn’t it? One per year sounds so reasonable, except it turns out having multiple series in your sights very rapidly compounds the problem…

    I haven’t read any of these, but I hope you enjoy them! Thanks for stopping by my post earlier.

    Good luck – I suspect SUNRISE will be very popular on lists today!

      Unsurprisingly, it was on less list than I’d expected it to be!

    I read both James and The Wedding People and enjoyed them. I have had The Pearl That Broke Its Shell since it came out and need to get to it. I hope you enjoy all of these books when you get to them, Laurie.

    I enjoyed This Time It’s Real and it definitely fits the “easier” book label. I hope you find lots of relaxation with these!
