THE BOOKS ON THE ANNUAL SPRING 2026 TO-BE-READ LIST
Another season, another annual TBR list is here. This time we’re ushering in the spring season that will, hopefully, bring more ideal temperatures. As a result of this new spring season, we are looking at the 2026 TBR lists we all make each season. I rarely actually read the books on these TBRs (and I don’t think I ever have!), but they are still books I’m excited for!

THE BOOKS ON THE ANNUAL SPRING 2026 TO-BE-READ LIST. #BookList #TBR #SpringTBR #TopTen #TopTenList Share on XThe goal of this list is to hopefully put mostly backlist titles on the list because we all know that I am, and I don’t think I’m alone in this, terrible about reading any number of books on my shelves versus the number of new titles I add. For sure I’ll add some upcoming releases too, but the rule kind of is to add mostly the books that I should be reading because they already live on the shelves. So, here we go, the latest TBR collection is here!

Linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl March 24: Books on My Spring 2026 To-Read List
I hope you get to read at least one or two.
My list is all books I currently have from publishers to review so I’ll definitely get to them this season.
Thanks for sharing your #TTT
Fabulous – hope you enjoy all of the books you are planning to read. :)
I read 7/10 books on my winter TBR, so I didn’t do too bad. I already checked out one of the books on my spring TBR from the library (so I can start it as soon as I finish reading Project Hail Mary). I’m always looking for books to read at work, so if it’s a book I hope to read on audiobook, I’m more likely to get it read.
Hopefully you’ll get to read some of these! Someday, at least.
That is FABULOUS, Brooke – go you! Always fun to be able to cross off the books on our TBRs. :) Audiobooks must be nice for those who can listen during the day. Makes reading easier I’d imagine. :) Enjoy the book you have checked out!
Definitely Maybe Not a Detective sounds cute!! Enjoy your reads!
Right? I think that one looks super fun. :)
Honestly, I have the same problem with a lot of seasonal TBR books which is why I’ve never gone back to say which books I did or didn’t read a few months later. You are not alone. 😂
Thank you for stopping by earlier.
Glad I’m not alone in that; it’s just too reader “depressing” for my to look back – especially since I always know I’d have failed. ;) Thank you for visiting here!
eeep! I’m so excited for Becca’s and Natalie’s books! They’re always so fun.
Hope you enjoy both, Carrie; always fun to know favorite authors have good books coming. :)
I’m terrible at sticking to lists as well! Several of these look like so much fun. I hope you enjoy them when you decide to read them!
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
Thanks! I hope to enjoy them all too. :)
I read and enjoyed The Bodyguard – and super excited about the adaptation, even if it will still take a while probably :)
So glad to know this re: The Bodyguard! I added it because of the adaptation and thought maybe if I add it “early,” I’ll actually read it in time for the eventual movie release. ;)
Fab line up for Spring 2026! I’m excited to read Natalie’s book.
So am I! It does sound SUPER cute. ;)
I hope you enjoy reading all of these when you get the chance! I have Beth is Dead on hold at the library. And I’ve read The Bodyguard and Meet Me in the Margins. Both were such fun reads.
Here’s my TTT for the week: https://readbakecreate.com/spring-2026-tbr-ten-books-i-hope-to-read/
Thanks! I hope so too. Glad to know Katherine and Melissa’s get good reviews AND I’m not really sure about the Beth is Dead book but I’m willing to give it a chance. ;)
I can’t wait for Not What We Pictured, it’s one I preordered. I am also looking forward to Spies, Lies, and Alibi’s! Great list. Have a lovely week!
Hope you enjoy BOTH, Cindy. :)
Thanks!
:)
Enjoy them!
Thanks! :)
I just got an ARC of THE LUMBER BARON’S WIFE yesterday. It sounds really good. I hope we both enjoy it!
Happy TTT!

I’m enjoying it! Definitely not my “norm” read, but good. :) Happy reading!!
Meet Me in the Margins looks perfect for us bookworms and romance fans.
Right? It does look cute! I’ve had it forever but added it to my list because I think it was adapted as a TV film. :)
I’ve read The Bodyguard and Meet Me In The Margins and enjoyed them both! I hope you will too!
Thanks! I hope so too – so glad you enjoyed them. :)
