What books are there to look forward to for the rest of the summer? Fall? Winter? As the second half of the year approaches, we have you covered with our most anticipated reads for the last six months of 2025, including plenty of fresh contemporary fiction, an exciting haul of speculative and historical works, and some bookish nonfiction, such as a new biography of James Baldwin and memoirs from Margaret Atwood and Arundhati Roy. We’ll be featuring some of these upcoming titles in our digital magazine, as well as our First Impressions program and book club.
