April 2025 TBR

It’s my birthday month, so my goal is to mood read as much as possible. So even though my April 2025 TBR follows the same format as usual, I could jump around a lot. I have to travel for work in early April, so during that time, especially, I might jump around to books not necessarily listed here. Anyway, enough of my babbling. Keep scrolling to see what’s on my April 2025 TBR.

STEMinist Romance Books

Outside of fantasy, I don’t typically read a lot of romance books. However, when I do, I tend to gravitate toward STEMinist romance books. STEM is an acronym for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. STEMinist combines STEM with the concept of feminism. In other words, a STEMinist is someone who supports gender equity in STEM, which are fields typically dominated by men.

Lately, author Ali Hazelwood has put STEMinist romance books on the map. She probably isn’t the first author to publish these types of books, but her recent works certainly increased their popularity.
