Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly themed post first created by The Broke and the Bookish in 2010 and is now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s theme is a freebie, so I thought I’d share some 2026 releases I’m excited for. Many of these don’t have covers yet, so I’ll just be sharing the title and current release date for each book.
- Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter by Heather Fawcett – February 17, 2026
- Green & Deadly Things by Jen Lyons – March 3, 2026
- Steel Gods by Richard Swan – March 31, 2026
- The Faraway Inn by Sarah Beth Durst – April 7, 2026

Oh my! What a brilliant list. I want to read all of these but especially The Sea Beyond. I loved The Rook and the Rose trilogy.

You’re way ahead of me — I haven’t even begun to think about 2026 yet! This is a great list — is the Sarah Beth Durst part of the Spellshop world? Exciting!

It’s actually a young adult novel set in Vermont! It looks like it could fit in with the Spellshop world with that lovely cover though.

Interesting! I’m not sure I’d be up for a YA, but the cover really does make it seem like it’s part of that same world.
