Today I’m kicking off my very first TBR of 2026, Bookmas Day 11 style, and I’m taking you along for the whole “what am I actually in the mood for?” decision process. This is one of my favorite kinds of videos because it’s cozy, it’s chatty, and it feels like we’re just hanging out while I build a fantasy-heavy stack that I’m genuinely excited to pick up next. I’m pulling from books I’ve been eyeing, mixing in different vibes, and making sure I’ve got a good balance of epic, whimsical, and a little bit darker—because my reading moods can change so fast. I also share the fantasy titles I’m considering for this TBR, including Fury Of The Gods, Deliverance Of Dragons, The Enchanted Greenhouse, Red City, and Hollow, plus I toss in The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires for a different flavor. If you’re trying to plan your own month (or year!) of reading, this is a great watch for inspiration—especially if you love fantasy and want a TBR that feels fun instead of stressful. And if you’re building your own bookish systems, I also link the little tools I use (like my TBR prompts and scratch-off bookmark) to make choosing books feel like a treat.
