Say You’ll Remember Me absolutely BROKE me. I’m very curious to see the reception for it. It’s very very heavy, with our heroine caring for her sick mother who has dementia. It sounds like 2025 is going to be full of romances with sick/aging parents interestingly.

[@nanimaonovi2528]

Yep. Abby "the heavy" Jimenez. We were warned.

[@Kristin_35]

Oh my 😮😢

I had that one dramione fanfic book on my list because the cover was pretty but I didn’t realize it was based on Draco Malfoy and the mortifying ordeal of being in love - I actually really enjoyed that story, so now I’m even more excited for the book!

4:34 I don’t mind when either the heroine or hero are a bit of a mess and need help from a partner learning their way through adulthood, it’s 100% how it’s handled and the way the more “mature” partner thinks about the other. It’s one thing to find someone endearing for their naivety and want to help them grow, but it’s another thing to be attracted to someone because they’re less experienced in life. So often the hero will be attracted to the heroine because she comes across as a damsel in distress, and that’s so toxic.

Man the cover for A Treachery of Swans is stunning!

[@readwithkori]

i’m excited for TJRs new book about NASA

[@JemmaSimmons_]

I pre-ordered the new Ashley Poston after watching this! I'm also looking forward to the new Ali Hazelwood and BK Borison too 😀

2025 is going to be all about Onyx Storm for me!

[@KMaeRader]

If you need more assassin nuns, try Red Sister by Mark Lawrence ❤

[@VanessaChaseLockshin]

If you haven't read The Blonde Identity by Ally Carter, it is great. The audiobook book was one of the best ones I listened to this year!

[@annibtj]

i am actually soooo excited for dream girl drama! i feel like its giving clueless vibes

[@laurendimke967]

so many good shouts in this! thank you!!

[@catrocks7180]

From what I’ve heard, the dramione book isn’t a rewritten Draco Malfoy and the mortifying ordeal, same author. The publisher read the fanfic and apparently signed her and it’s a new dramione coded book with a completely new story. But even without that, I would still say that Draco Malfoy and the mortifying ordeal of falling in love is a must must read, one of my favorite fanfics.

[@pleasedtoreadyou]

keeping a spot open for a potential Bride sequel?!

[@mle2271]

I loved the assassin nun series too! 😍

[@joannarivera6510]

Omg so my notes I have taken and added to my TBR ... I hope my library add these to their list because if not, my wallet is going to hate or love me...$$$$

[@erikaroth6049]

Heartless Hunter sequel yesssss

[@antonela5979]

Definitely check out Heart of the sun by Mia Sheridan it sounds really good... I have a lot of same books as you except I added some historical romances I don't know what and when Elisa Braden will have out in 2025 but I am excited about her book it is always fun time. Richard Swan and Joe Abercombie are on my list too...both are starting a new series... I added I am not Jessica Chen by Ann Liang too... I added Tarah new book but will check out this Flirting with disaster too it seems really good. Good luck and hopefully you have a lot of five stars...

[@KatiesBookNook426]

2025 seems like its gonna be the year of trad pub dramione fanfic and i feel like i gotta catch up and read the source material 😂

[@Missy2858]

[@Cm-up9sf]

The most wonderful crime of the year was okay 👍 I didn't enjoy how things got randomly revealed.

[@katherinecraig618]

Rio is the one who has like a man crush on Ryan Shay

FYI-- early reviewers are saying that This Book Will Bury Me is a fictionalized account of the 2022 University of Idaho Massacre-- a case that is still going through the legal system and the victims have not yet found justice. Given the apparent messages in the book, this is both incredibly exploitative and hypocritical. I know that when reading The Last Housewife, I felt like I was reading a fictionalized version of the Sarah Lawrence Sex Cult. So I definitely think it's a pattern of behaviour with the author and has made me ultimately decide not to engage with any of her books in future.
