In this video I’m basically counting down the days to 2026 releases, because my TBR is already in chaos and it’s only getting worse. I put together my most anticipated book releases of 2026 (25+ recs), and I’m chatting through what’s grabbing me across genres—fantasy, romance, sci-fi, mystery, and contemporary. If you like picking books based on vibes plus a little BookTube/BookTok buzz, this is very much that kind of list. I also talk about how I personally browse for books to read: I’m always looking at reviews, trying to figure out if the hype is going to work for me, and then I inevitably end up adding “just one more” to the TBR. The goal is that you leave with a bunch of fresh 2026 book recommendations, a few new authors to try, and that cozy feeling of planning your reading year early—because yes, I am already yearning to yap about these stories with you.
