Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Welcome to Tuesday! Another morning of meetings for me. Doesn't that sound like fun? At least I'm not bored.
Today, we are sharing our most anticipated books releasing in the first half of 2026. Let's see what we can find.

Tell Me Something Tuesday (TMST) is hosted by Jen Twimom at That's What I'm Talking About. TMST is a weekly discussion post where bloggers discuss a wide range of topics from books and blogging to life in general. Participation is optional, and you can leave your comments in the weekly post when you participate. Check it out if you're interested in joining.
Tell Me Something Tuesday is asking us to share a food we are obsessed with. Hmmm... have you met me? I love to eat. I have the largest appetite in the house. While I love pizza, ice cream, and chocolate chip cookies, I guess the one food I am obsessed with is pasta.
When I was pregnant with my son many, many moons ago, I ate pasta several times a week. Pasta is a staple in our house, with me making one pasta dish weekly. I might supplement that with leftover pasta for lunch. One day, I want to make my own pasta.
That's it for me today. I look forward to visiting your blogs.

I think I am most intrigued with 99 Ways to Die and How to Avoid Them!
If You Were Here is going on my list! Is one of the characters a wheelchair user? I am always looking for books with disability rep since my son is a wheelchair user!
I'm looking forward to reading the new Sonali Dev, and No One Would Do What the Lamberts Have Done looks really good! Hope you enjoy all of these!
These look like excellent books!
I am obsessed with chocolate ๐ when I was pregnant with my second son I wanted penne pasta with a tomato sauce ๐
Have a great week!
I love pasta! It's so versatile! My #1 most anticipated books (a tie): This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me by Ilona Andrews and Archangel's Eternity by Nalini Singh.
I loved EVERYONE IN THIS BANK IS A THIEF, just like I've loved all the books in the series. I hope you enjoy it and all these others.
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
Nice list. I hope you enjoy all of these when you get a chance to read them.
Great list. Always love to see a new Sheila Roberts book.
The two nonfiction books look really interesting. I had pasta tonight for dinner. ๐
It does, Shelleyrae. I really need to get started with that series. Great to have a fellow pasta lover here. Thanks for visiting.
Agreed, Harlow Rose. That's one of the best reasons to blog--finding new books! Thanks for visiting.
I had heard of a few on your list. Hopefully, we find some crossover. Thanks for paying me a visit.
Doesn't it sound great, Deb! Hope we both read it. Thanks for stopping by.
If You Were Here sounds wonderful, doesn't it, Erin? Yes, Wren got hurt in an accident and has used a wheelchair since then. Hope you get a chance to read it. Thanks for dropping in.
Thanks, Lisa. So many great books coming out this year. Hope you get to read them. Appreciate the visit.
Chocolate is a fun obsession. Penne is a favorite around here, too, Emily. Thanks for the visit.
Those sound like great book, Jen. Hope you get to read them. I like that pasta takes about seven minutes to make, which helps me on busy days. Thanks for visiting.
Thanks, Susan. I appreciate the recommendation as well. Hopefully, we all get to read some amazing books this year. Thanks for visiting.
Thanks, Cindy. Hope you get to read some wonderful books as well. Appreciate the visit.
I agree, Yvonne. I love read Sheila's books. Thanks for stopping by.
They do, Carla. I love me some good nonfiction. Hope you enjoyed your pasta! Thanks for the visit.
These are all new to me, but Love on the Shelf looks super cute!
I am sure it will be great, Lindsi. Hope you get to read it. Thanks for visiting.
Fun list of books! Love on the Shelf appeals as does the Christina Applegate memoir. Two more books for my TBR. :D
