My January 2026 TBR

The awakening sculpture at national harbor in maryland
December Beginning TBR: 415
December Ending TBR: 448 (Thanks Tournament of Books)
I’m excited to kick off the 2026 reading year. I started a whole new reading journal and am starting all of my global reading challenges all over again. There’s nothing like a fresh start, is there?
December was rough and I haven’t been reading much, and what I did read was mostly re-reads. Hopefully I’ll be back to my bookworm ways in January. A lot of these books are from the Tournament of Books 2026 long list which I am very excited about.
Here is my January TBR.
