It's a wrap for Bookmergency 2025! We had lots of fun looking back to our first year of the Bookmergency podcast. We discussed all the surprises, and challenges of 2025 and hopes and dreams we have for our second year.

It was a blast reflecting on how the podcast has changed since January and all the cool episodes we got to do. We had Maddie Burg and Danielle Sabrena Ellis as guests, and we got to interview The Reading Black Girls, Daniel Henning, Nia Davenport, Christine Bollow from Loayalty Bookstore, and Ayana Gray!

If you're new here, this is a great episode to start cause it's spoiler free and you get to hear a ton of recommendations of books we covered and books we loved reading outside of Bookmergency.

Sit back, enjoy the ride, and let us know your thoughts! What have been your favorite books of 2025? What books are you looking forward to in 2026?
