Top 5 Books I’ve Already Bought in 2025 (Top 5 Tuesday)

Hello everyone! I decided to tweak this week’s topic because I’ve already bought way too many beautiful books this year. lol. I also published a post yesterday about anticipated upcoming releases. So, I didn’t want to be super repetitive. Therefore, instead of the original topic, Top 5 Books I Want to Buy in 2025, I’ve decided to talk about the Top 5 Books I’ve Already Bought in 2025, with a special emphasis on the prettiest ones I’ve acquired. The covers all link to the book’s Goodreads page. Top 5 Tuesday was created by Shanah @ Bionic Book Worm, and is now being hosted at Meeghan Reads!

Books Set in Another Time – Top Ten Tuesday

Top Ten Tuesday - Books Set in a School

Today I’m participating in Top Ten Tuesday. This meme 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. Each week there is a new theme/topic, and participants choose ten books that fit it.

This week’s theme is Books Set in Another Time. I decided to split this week’s topic into books set in the past and future. So, the first five books have a historical element of some sort, and the rest are set in the future. All covers link to Goodreads in case something catches your eye. ๐Ÿ™‚
