The first month of the year 2026 was a successful month. The first week I was still on vacation, which contributed a bit to this. I had (again) a mixture of longer and shorter ones. Overall, a balanced reading month. I’m also trying to focus a bit more on working at my physical TBR.
I was able to finish 30 books and 3 Audiobooks.
In case a dedicated Review is available, I’ll link to it below in case you are interested or missed the dedicated Review for it (some are still pending for the coming weeks). If you are interested in the prior reading months, you can find the posts here.

My favorites of the month:
Last month these books / series made it to the top of my list:
- The Mochi Promise by R J Greyta
This one was different compared to what I usually read. It is heartwarming and the conenction between the 2 main characters is something really special. - People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry
With the movie adoption coming out at the beginning of the month, I wanted to prepare and I fell in love with both 🙂 - Between the Lines by Tracey Magruder
A slow-burn that delivers. We have characters that get to know each other first and than descide to take the next step. - An Imperfect Life by Karen Jasper
On paper this does not sound like the most interesting book (we follow a family through different generations) – the execution though was simply amazing. An ARCthat I loved so much, that I immediately got the physical one to have it on my shelf.
