That is why I bring you my mid year freak out book tag of 2025 that quickly turned into a very chatty / ranty video about some of the new book releases coming in 2025 (and also, some popular book releases), best books of 2025, disappointing books of 2025, books in my TBR, etc. Booktube and Booktok have talked about some of these 2025 book releases… But have you heard of them? I hope you guys enjoy this one and come out with more books to add to your TBR and some good book recommendations for 2025! – Books Mentioned Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L.
