January is almost upon us--which is a little scary, I won't lie!--but the best part of that is all of the incredible books coming out! 2026 is looking to be a great year for books if January is any indicator and I'm so excited for so many of these. I am woefully behind on posts for December (and at this point, I'm just calling it my holiday blogging break, haha), but I had to make sure to get this post up so you can all check out January's books. I'm especially excited for To Ride a Rising Storm because it's a sequel I've been waiting for for years and I'm so excited to continue the story. Be sure to let me know which books you're most excited, and happy reading!

What are your anticipated January releases?

Wow, you always find new to me books, and there are a few here i need to check out! I've already read The Storm and a Box Full of Darkness and loved them both😁 And I really want to read Vigil and Crux and will probably buy them. I hope you have a fantastic January!
ReplyDeleteI'm very intrigued by Detour and A Spell for Drowning. Those went on my TBR right away! I'm a little bit burned out on romantasy, but nevertheless I have Graceless Heart (which comes out on Jan. 13) on my TBR as well.
ReplyDeleteI have very few 2026 releases on my TBR. That is about to change after reading this post haha. Through Gates of Garnet and Gold is the only one of these that was already on my radar. I read it a couple weeks ago and really enjoyed it! Hope you do too :)
