2024 is coming to an end which means it’s the exciting time when we get to think about all the books that are coming out in the new year. I’ve been hearing about so many new books being released in 2025 and I’m so excited to share 10 of them with you today!
1. Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros
Coming out on January 21st, this book is a much anticipated release for many readers. It is the 3rd book in the series and after the ending of Iron Flame we are all very eager to get our hands on this. This is your sign to go read Fourth Wing if you have not yet already…or read it again to prepare for the release! It has lots of dragons, magic, fighting, and romance. I will be saying this for a lot of these books but I love this cover too.
2. Oathbound by Tracy Deonn
This book, along with Onyx Storm, is probably my most anticipated release of 2025. It is the 3rd book in the Legendborn Cycle and I am very excited but also so scared to read this book after the ending of Bloodmarked. Bree looks stunning on this cover! Be sure to pick up this book when it releases on March 4th!
3. Watch Me by Tahereh Mafi
Coming out on April 15th, this new book takes place after the events of the Shatter Me series. It follows Adam’s little brother who is now no longer 10 years old, but a young adult. Make sure to read the Shatter Me series before picking up this book.
4. Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins
If you are a fan of the Hunger Games you have probably heard of this book that’s coming out on March 18th. During the time of Katniss and Peeta we hear a little bit about Haymitch and his time in the arena. Now we will finally know his story and how he came to be a winner of the Hunger Games. I can’t wait for the movie that has already been announced as well.
5. The Ragpicker King by Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Clare is one of my favorites authors so every time she has a new book it’s an automatic buy for me. This is the sequel to her adult fantasy book: Sword Catcher. I love the color of this cover and it will match so well with the first book. This book also comes out on March 4th. I am currently reading Sword Catcher so that I can be ready for the release of this book.
6. The Things Gods Break by Abigail Owen
This book is coming out September 16th and it is the sequel to The Games Gods Play. I’m hoping to read the first book before then. All I know is it has something to do with Hades and definitely has a romance.
7. Four Ruined Realms by Mai Corland
Coming out on January 7th, this is one of the earliest books being released in the new year. It is the sequel to Five Broken Blades. I love the sprayed edges and I love even more how the edges match up with the first book when placed next to each other.
8. A Curse Carved In Bone by Danielle L. Jensen
This sequel to A Fate Inked In Blood is releasing on May 13th. I love books based on mythology and this series is based on Norse mythology.
9. Firebird by Juliette Cross
This is the beginning of a new fantasy series coming out on April 8th and it sounds amazing. Not to mention the cover again is gorgeous. I don’t know much about this book but I know it involves Rome and dragons which was all I needed to hear.
10. Katabasis by R.F. Kuang
This cover is yet to be revealed. I just found out about this book recently and I got so excited when i heard about it. Upon looking up the definition of katabasis and realizing that this book is going to be about a journey to the underworld, I got even more excited. This author has written many other great books and I can’t wait to dive into this new story when it is released on August 26th.
