To-Read Book List for 2025

As I mentioned in my previous post, where I shared an overview of the 28 books I read in 2024, this post focuses on the curated list of books I plan to explore in 2025. I’ve compiled these titles from various sources on the internet. For reference, here are the curated lists from 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, and 2020.

As always, I share these lists to:

1. To encourage others to read. I will not get tired of saying we need to read more as a people. Joining a book club like the Naija Book Club may not be a bad idea.
2. To provide a list for those who don’t know where to start. With 50 books, there is a lot of options.
3. To document my own personal book history. I take writing seriously because I know that a pen is many times better than the best memory.

So, here you go:
