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 Summer 2025 TBR. For my Summer 2025 TBR, I will list books I hope to read from July to September 2025.

 Summer 2025 TBR: Ten Books I Hope to Read July-September 2025

How did my Spring 2025 TBR go? Pretty good, honestly! I read four 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 Summer 2025 TBR!
