New Book Releases Today: January 28th, 2025

Welcome to a big Tuesday Release Day, with over 150 new books released today.

I’ve personally already started reading The Crash by Freida McFadden. I could barely put it down to write this post.

However, there are many other books releasing today, so let’s get to them.

Exciting news for fans of Grace Burrowes, as the New York Times bestselling author is releasing the 8th entry in her Lord Julian Mysteries series.

In A Gentleman of Sinister Schemes, Lord Julian Caldicott is on a perilous mission to uncover who is plotting the Marquess of Dalhousie’s death. With suspects ranging from embittered family members to feuding neighbours and disgruntled staff, the case becomes even more dangerous as Julian himself becomes a target. Faced with treachery at every turn, Julian must risk his honour—and his life—in the relentless pursuit of the truth.

Many great non-fiction books are coming out today, one of which is Realm of Ice and Sky by the award-winning author Buddy Levy is out today.

His new book chronicles the daring attempts of early 20th-century explorers to conquer the North Pole by airship. From Walter Wellman’s groundbreaking but ill-fated expeditions to the historic success of Roald Amundsen and Umberto Nobile in the Norge, and Nobile’s tragic return with the Italia, this riveting tale captures the triumphs, rivalries, and sacrifices of those who risked everything for glory and scientific discovery in the unforgiving Arctic.

If you have “read a non-fiction book” on any reading challenge lists, you can’t go wrong with Buddy Levy.

Or if you want a thought-provoking standalone, then the latest novel by Charmaine Wilkerson, author of “Black Cake”, is out today.

In Good Dirt, ten-year-old Ebby Freeman’s world was shattered by the loss of her brother and a centuries-old family heirloom in a tragedy that left unanswered questions.

Now, years later, as her high-profile breakup thrusts her back into the public eye, Ebby flees to France, only to be drawn back to the mysteries of her past. As she unravels the secrets of a stoneware jar tied to her enslaved ancestors, Ebby discovers the profound connection between her family’s history and her path forward. Good Dirt is a sweeping exploration of loss, legacy, and identity.

Here is a list of all of the new books releasing today:
