A new month means that it is time for a new TBR! So, today I’m making a new one for November. Without further ado, let’s dive into my November 2025 hopefuls and a brief recap of how I did with last month’s TBR!
Recap of Last Month
October was a surprisingly successful month for me. I finished reading all but one of my choices, including All of Us Murderers, All Souls Lost, Hazelthorn, Redneck Revenant, & Jade City. I did manage to get started on the final book, as well, The Isle in the Silver Sea, and have actually already finished it. I just didn’t make it over the finish line before the month ended. All in all, I can only hope that November will be just as successful.
November 2025 Priority Hopefuls
I’m sticking with six books again for the priority reads in November. Two of them are ARCs, The Bookshop Below by Georgia Summers & As Many Souls as Stars by Natasha Siegel. I’m also including the new release for James Islington, The Strength of the Few, because I’ll be dropping everything to read it once it’s in my hands. For my other three priority reads, I plan to focus on 2025 releases that I was highly anticipating but still haven’t gotten around to reading. Those picks include Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by V.E. Schwab, Go Luck Yourself by Sara Raasch, & The Survivor Wants to Die at the End by Adam Silvera.
Other November 2025 Hopefuls
For the rest of the year, I really want to focus on cleaning up my overdue ARCs a bit, as well as try to get through as many anticipated 2025 releases as I can. I also need to continue with the group buddy read for the Green Bone Saga. With that in mind, here are some other November hopefuls:
Our Vicious Oaths by N.E. Davenport, Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry, The Two Lies of Faven Sythe by Megan E. O’Keefe, Jade War by Fonda Lee
Well. Those are my November 2025 hopefuls. I’d love to read everything listed on this page, but that is unlikely. If I make it through six of them, I’ll consider November to be a success! Do we have any hopefuls in common this month? Happy reading!
Glad that October was a good reading month for you; I felt the same with my own reading. I’m excited about Summers’s new book, though I didn’t request an ARC because it looks like it’ll be included in one of my book subscriptions. I hope it’s as gorgeous as The City of Stardust!
I’m excited to see what the special edition will look like! I only got the eARC because I saw it would be in a box.
