I'm in a list making kind of mood so I thought I'd start making random five lists. Sometimes they'll be bookish other weeks not so much. This week I'm listing the 5 best romances I read in 2025. I really didn't read very many true romance books and the first one I have is kind of questionable if it's romance or women's fiction as there were some other things going on but I didn't mention it in my fiction list so it's going here. This is not counting rereads.
1. Funny Story by Emily Henry - My first by Henry was a DNF so my hopes were not high when I picked this one up and ended up absolutely loving it. I'm looking forward to reading more from this author.
2. Someone to Wed by Mary Balogh - I have been loving this series and this was one I really enjoyed. The development of the relationship and the characters were interesting and a bit unique.
3. The Sirens of Sussex by Mimi Matthews - I really enjoyed this one and I liked that it involved characters that were a bit different from the usual characters in historical romances.
4. The Seven Rings by Nora Roberts - To be completely honest this wasn't my favorite of the trilogy or even close to my favorite Roberts book but I'm so in love with the premise of this series. While there was a lot of filler I did really enjoy spending the time with the characters and in the manor.
5. Animal Magnetism by Jill Shalvis - It's been awhile since I've read a Shalvis book and this one had dog rescues, vets, and some good found family vibes.
I'm hoping to read more romance books in 2026. I really enjoy them but it's a genre that gets pushed to the side.
