I Planned My Entire Reading Year (26 Books in 2026)

I’m taking on a 26 Books in 2026 reading challenge and setting up a reading journal spread to track the entire year 📚✨

In today’s video, I’m sharing the 26 books I want to prioritise in 2026, most of them fantasy special editions, and designing a full journal tracker to keep the challenge intentional, cosy, and low pressure.

I’m leaning into a reading year focused on enjoyment over numbers - making progress through my backlist, reading with intention, and choosing books that genuinely excite me. This challenge feels motivating, aesthetic, and realistic, and I can’t wait to see how it unfolds.

We’ll talk through my TBR, plan the challenge, and create the journal spread that will keep me accountable all year 📖
