My January 2026 TBR | Books I’m Planning to Read This Month

In this video, I share my January 2026 TBR — the books I’m planning to read this month as I kick off a new reading year.

My January reading plans include a mix of short story collections, modern classics, historical fiction, science fiction, and challenging nonfiction. From Stephen King and Cormac McCarthy to Elie Wiesel and Thomas Keneally, this month’s TBR spans a wide range of genres and tones.

I talk about why I chose each book and what I’m hoping to get out of them. If you enjoy BookTube content about monthly TBRs, reading plans, and thoughtful book selection, I hope you’ll enjoy this look at what I’m reading to start the year.
