The topic for this Tuesday: Top 5 series I will finish in 2026

---

Oh, this is a topic I am very excited about. There are a ton of series waiting for me to tackle them, and here I am happy to announce the top 5 (6) series I will (hopefully) finish this year!

1. Shadow and Bone + Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo: I am putting them together because they go hand in hand, and I have been meaning to complete reading these books forever. I think the time has come to actually do it.
2. Emily Wilde’s trilogy by Heather Fawcett: another set of books I need to get to.
3. Anne of Green Gables by L.M Montgomery: A classic children’s series. I am aware that there are a lot of books in this series, but I will try my best to read as many as I can this year.
4. A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness: I started this series ages ago, and I still have not completed it. And I loved the first book, so I don’t really know why I didn’t continue…
5. Beartown by Fredrik Backman: Ohh, this one has been patiently waiting for me for my muse to come and pick it up. Since this year is the year of venturing outside of my comfort zone, this trilogy had to be included. A huge plus is that I love Backman, and I have high hopes for this one.

I would like to add one additional series since I am also into my romantic era, no judgment, please! LOL

6. Magnolia Falls Series by Laura Pavlov: Not going to hide it, I have the urge to read romance books, and this one was recommended to me. I know nothing about it, just that it is worth it.

Have you read any of these series? I’d love to hear your thoughts on them, even if you haven’t read them.
