Three Books That You Need to Read in 2025

We are a couple of months into 2025 and if you haven’t been reading, then you should get to it. We have a list of three books that you need to read in 2025 that will get you back into reading in no time!

I believe that everyone enjoys reading but need the right novels to get them to read for fun. And these three novels are that good in my opinion. Amazing writing needs to be celebrated and talented authors need to be shared so they can keep writing amazing books that make our lives much better. You can see the full list below!

• The Women by Kristin Hannah
• Wandering Stars by Tommy Orange
• A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman, Henning Koch (Translator)

The Women

I know that The Women by Kristin Hannah was everywhere in 2024 and if that didn’t get you to read it, hopefully this article will. The novel tells the overlooked story of women severing in Vietnam and returning only to hear everyone say that Women didn’t serve in Vietnam.

The trauma and PTSD lead the protagonist on a journey that uproots her life and having to come home to a country that is ashamed of her service. This moving novel is very powerful and I can’t wait until the movie comes out. Hannah highlights a moment in history that has barely been covered and gives women that served in Vietnam a voice after decades of going unheard.

Wandering Stars

They say don’t judge a book by its cover but that might not be true for Wandering Stars by Tommy Orange. This is one of my favorite book covers and the book is even better that the cover.

Orange tells a harrowing tale of racism and trauma that haunts a family for generations. The book tells the story of Native Americans suffering for over a century and the importance of identity and home.

The plight of Native Americans is forgotten or neglected in this country. Their identity is constantly under attack and their history has been buried deep. But Tommy Orange’s novel brings it back into the spotlight and tells their story, while also writing one of the best novels of 2024.

A Man Called Ove

One of the most heart-wrenching novels I read was A Man called Ove by Fredrik Backman. After most chapters, I had to take a break and let the writing sink in. That should tell you just how powerful this novel is. Trying to summarize this novel without spoiling it in not easy.

Ove is a cranky old man who has lived a full life with his wife and now plans to end his life in an orderly fashion. But before he can do that, he is interrupted by a young couple and their two daughters that have moved next to Ove. They constantly need his help and an unlikely friendship forms that changes the course of Ove’s life.

if you want to cry or take a beautiful message away from a novel, then you should read this amazing novel and see why this novel become an international phenomenon.

Conclusion

That is all for this list of the three books that you need to read in 2025! These three novels are all powerful and beautifully written books that everyone should read. Books like these are why I fell in love with reading and I love sharing the books that stay with me for a long time. I hope you like them just as much as I did if not more. Happy reading!
