25 in 2025

here are 25 fiction books (plus 5 nonfiction books, because of who i am as a person!) that i want to read in 2025, color-coded!

The Fic:

Craft: Stories I Wrote For The Devil by Ananda Lima

The Dead Cat Tail Assassins by P. Djeli Clark

Lost Ark Dreaming by Suyi Davies Okungbowa

Metal from Heaven by August Clarke

Blackfish City by Sam J. Miller

Camp Zero by Michelle Min Sterling

Catchpenny by Charlie Huston

Between Earth and Sky Trilogy by Rebecca Roanhorse

The Future by Catherine LeRoux

A Grace Paley Reader: Stories, Essays, and Poetry

Look No Further by Rioghnach Robinson and Siofra Robinson

Aces Wild by Amanda DeWitt

House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski

The Luminous Dead by Caitlin Starling

The Saint of Bright Doors by Vajra Chandrasekera

A Cage Went in Search of a Bird

Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino

In the Watchful City by S. Qiouyi Lu

The Archive Undying by Emma Meiko Candon

Bright by Duanwad Pimwana

How to Dance by Jason B. Dutton

Even Though I Knew The End by CL Polk

Whirlwind Romance by Sam Thompson

You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi

the blue this year are Just Because books--i've gotten a zillion novellas in the last couple years that i'm super hyped to read, and i do like stacking my reading material with the season, so i'll try to do CAMP ZERO and BLACKFISH CITY while it's still wintry out there.

purple things are still driscoll-adjacent (writing project coded)--either weird or YA or sentient settings or crisis of faith or community, this year (i'm starting to Reach haha)(hopefully i'll finish these revisions this year though!!).

green starts my NaNo prep, because my aro ass is going to write some weird aro horror/romance hot mess in november, and i need Romance Novel Fodder--i've got a few other things on deck as the time approaches, but this is the start of my list for now >:D

The Nonfic, presented with neither pomp nor colorful circumstance:

Welcome to the Goddamn Ice Cube by Blair Braverman

Silent Spring by Rachel Carson

Entangled Life by Merlin Sheldrake

A Taste for Poison by Neil Bradbury

A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf

shout out to @e-b-reads for promising to tag me, which was apparently all the invitation i needed lmao.

tagging @asexualbookbird, @sixofravens-reads, @alloreli, @agardenandlibrary (although you may have already done this?), and anyone else who wants to play!

Hi yes I have this warrant here it says "Find out how many books Al bought in 2025"

ack girl help you dropped your warrant

18. How many books did you buy?

first of all: rude as heck, thanks,

second of all: the back-of-the-planner list is actually labeled as "Books ACQUIRED in 2025," because it includes gifted/given away books. as of Right This Very Second (ignore the fact that as soon as i answer this i'm going to go put in my second B&N preorder sale order of the year >:D), there are eighty-four (84) books on said list.

additional data, because i know u love data: of those 84, i have already ready twenty (20!!), which, yeah, includes what i bought for horror and romance quests (7)(nice).

additionally, thirty (30) of those 84 were Not Paid For By Me This Year--a lovely combo of gifts (18!!) and giveaways won (2!) and installments of a nature box subscription that i bought last year and paid off in full then (10). i also actually managed to make $2 when buying a book at HPB, which is a first lol.

so really, actually, technically, i only bought fifty-four (54) books for myself this year (plus twelve (12) as gifts for other people, but we don't count those because they don't stay in my house and therefore i don't have to shelve them).

now, if you'll please excuse me, i have a barnes and noble cart to fill while preorders are 25% off~~
