Happy Tuesday, y’all! It’s that time again. What time is it? It’s time to share our seasonal TBR. Jana, over at That Artsy Reader Girl, asks us to share a seasonal TBR every quarter. For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, that means our Winter 2025 TBR. For my Winter 2025 TBR, I will list books I hope to read from January to March 2025.
How did my Autumn 2024 TBR go? Not too great, honestly! I read one of the ten books I listed, and I may finish at least one more. I also DNFed one.
In 2024, I focused more on reading my current physical TBR instead of trying to read all the new books. I have come up with ten categories of books that I want to focus on each quarter. These books currently reside on my physical bookshelf, so I have no excuse not to read them. While I wasn’t overly successful, I will continue to focus on my physical books in 2025. But I’ll be changing up some of the categories.
All titles are linked to Goodreads.
Without further ado, here is my Winter 2025 TBR!

And that concludes my Winter 2025 TBR! Hopefully, I’ll be reading more books than these. Why do I say that? Because I currently have access to these books. And that means I can read them when I’m ready! Which one should I start with?
How did your Autumn 2024 TBR go? What books are on your Winter 2025 TBR? I would love to know!

The cooking book group here online read Kitchens of the Great Midwest and it sounded interesting to me.
These all look good, especially The Light Between Oceans. Happy reading when you get to them.
I’ve read two of these! Eliza and Her Monsters and Britt-Marie Was Here. I enjoyed both of them. Fredrik Backman is one of my favorite authors! I actually just finished his most latest short story, The Answer is No.
Here is my TTT: https://thissideofstoryland.blogspot.com/2024/12/top-ten-tuesday-books-on-my-winter-2024.html
I loved the Mack’s Bar series. It is a fun cozy. Britt-Marie was Here is Backman so what’s not to like. I hope you do read all of these and enjoy them, Pam.
Ooh I’ve got Britt-Marie and Accidental Pinup on two challenge lists for next year. I’ve heard a lot of good things about Eliza and Her Monsters too! I hope you enjoy all of these reads 🙂
Any Backman is good Backman! Yoga Pant sounds fun, though not exactly my thing.. 😉
I’m not sure if I’m remembering right or not, but I THINK I read The Light Between Oceans a while back. I know it was such a popular book once upon a time and I remember seeing ‘Eliza’ making the rounds when it released too! Like you, I also want to read more of the books I own vs trying to buy all the new things so hopefully I will. 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my list today!
I read Eliza and her Monsters years ago and I can’t remember a thing about it. Sigh. I cram in books into my brain while others fly out.
My Winter Reading list is largely based on the challenges I’ve set for myself, book club selections, and books I have on hold with Libby. My Winter Reading list
Nice and varied list today. I hope you get to them all and enjoy them.
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you.
I really should read The Light Between Oceans sometime.
Great list. A Toast to Murder sounds really good. I’ll have to check that one out.
I’ve read Eliza and her Monsters and really enjoyed it. Hope you’ll love all of these!
Wow, it has been YEARS since I read Eliza and her Monsters. I think 2018?
I loved to the audiobook of Forever and a Day!
I’ve not heard of any of these books. I hope you love them when you get to them! 🙂
The Accidental Pin Up looks cute! I hope you get to enjoy all of these.
I love the categories you picked for these! It’s a great way to give some focus to a big pile of books. (I know I need that help, sometimes.) Happy reading!
Eliza and Her Monsters is one of my favorite books!! It’s so good, but also a tougher one. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
The Light Between Oceans looks interesting. Mostly because I love lighthouses! Great list and thanks for visiting my TTT!
I like all your different catagories. There are several outside my normal genre that look very good.
One of these days I need to try more from Backman.
Kitchen Gods, Britt-Marie & Light Between Oceans were really good. I’m interested in the 007-related book and yoga pant nation looks cute
