Hi Friends,
Happy Bookmas Day Fifteen! For today’s post, I’m going to be sharing five book series that I really want to start in 2025. Keep in mind, I’m a huge romantasy girly—it’s easily become one of my favorite genres in 2024. So, naturally, there are plenty of fantasy romances on my list. However, I wanted to highlight a variety of series rather than sticking to just one genre.

The Thursday Murder Club Series by Richard OsmanI know this is a much-loved cozy mystery series, and with a movie adaptation of the first book coming out soon. I’ve been meaning to dive into it for a while—I even own the first two books! However, I haven’t quite been in the cozy mystery mood yet. That being said, 2025 will be the year I jump in, and I’m super excited. A mystery series centered around a retirement community sounds like such a fun, unique premise.

Boys of Tommen Series by Chloe WalshThis is one I’ve been putting off like crazy because I know it’s going to break my heart. I believe I own all the books in the series, but it’s just so intimidating! It’s a new adult romance series that deals with heavy topics. However, I know so many people love it, and it’s supposedly the type of series that you’ll want to binge read.

Magnolia Parks Universe by Jessa HastingsI tried starting this series in 2024 but didn’t make it far into the first book before setting it aside. I’ve heard it’s better to tandem-read the first two books (Magnolia Parks and Daisy Haites), and then do the same with the rest of the series. I’m slightly nervous because the series explores toxic relationships, but I’m excited as well, because a lot of people compare it to Gossip Girl. While I never read the Gossip Girl books, I was a huge fan of the TV show. So, this gives me hope that I might enjoy this series.

The Halfling Saga by Melissa BlairThis is a romantasy series that, honestly, I don’t know much about. My husband gave me the first book as a gift last year, and since then, I’ve collected the rest of the series. I haven’t heard many people talk about it, so I’m excited to go in with an open mind. I’ll definitely let you all know if it’s worth reading!

Dreamland Billionaires Trilogy by Lauren AsherI have heard this series is very hit-or-miss for people. A few complaints that I hear from romance readers are that the books are quite long. Still, I’m excited to try out Lauren Asher’s writing, and a series of romance novels that essentially take place at Disneyland sounds so good. Also, the tropes for each book really have me more hyped to start this trilogy.

There you have it, five book series that I am desperately hoping to start in the new year.
