Book Superlatives for 2025
The Curated List of 2025 Books That Served What We Needed, And Left Us Very Satisfied…
From the novels that made us laugh out loud on public transit to the ones we finished at 3 a.m. with mascara-streaked cheeks, 2025 delivered stories that didn’t just entertain, they served. Whether you were in your healing era, your main character era, or your delulu era (no judgment), this year’s reads hit all the emotional notes. Some books gave us the permission to rest, others lit a fire under us. A few were so beautifully unhinged, we’re still unpacking the ending in group chats. And of course, there were the ones that earned their way onto the bookshelf forever, dog-eared, underlined, and possibly lent out (but never returned).
Below, you’ll find the official Exhibit A list of 2025 Book Superlatives. These are the titles that gave us what we didn’t know we needed, and left us better (or at least more emotionally chaotic) than they found us.
Best For Laughs
Best For Tears
Best For Feeling Hot and Sexy
Best Overrated
Best Of The Year
Whether you were in the mood to blush, bawl, belly laugh, or debate whether that book was really worth the hype, 2025 delivered. This year’s reads reminded us that books are more than just stories, they’re experiences, conversations, and sometimes even a little bit of therapy. So here’s to the authors who understood the assignment, the characters we won’t forget, and the plots that had us hooked. Same time next year?
