Top 5 Tuesday was created by Shanah at Bionic Book Worm, and now being hosted by Meeghan reads.
Hello!
I am absolutely loving the topics for Top 5 Tuesday at the moment and I just can’t help but take part as they are helping me narrow down a good TBR pile for 2025.
This year I really want to read different genres from my comfort zone and read as many different authors as possible. Already this month I have read two books from new to me authors and a genre I wouldn’t usually go near and I loved the books!





- William – An Englishman by Cicely Hamilton was a Persephone book I bought just before Christmas. I love the Persephone books as they introduce me to so many authors I haven’t come across before.
- The Princes in the Tower by Philippa Gregory has been sat on my TBR for way too long. I’ve always wanted to read a book by Gregory as I love her documentaries on TV.
- The Help by Kathryn Stockett is another book that has been sat on my TBR for way too long.
- Professor Alice Roberts is another favourite of mine in the documentary department so I think it is time I read one of her books.
- Medea by Rosie Hewlett is a book that I picked up because it is about Medea and I haven’t read a retelling of her story before.
What are 5 new authors you plan to read in 2025?
Happy Reading
