Ongoing Series I’m Reading in 2026
I have no less than 22 ongoing series I’m reading in 2026. Twenty-two! And that’s after a drive in my 2024 resolutions and 2025 resolutions to reduce that number.
I still have a lot to read – that feels like a MASSIVE understatement! I have some lengthy series I can only hope to progress with in 2026. Then there are others where I have anything from 1 to 5 books left that I could achieve completion of this year.
Two series are getting priority this year as they have sequels coming out in 2026. With a view to featuring more new releases this year, I want to have those read in advance of the next books coming out. Both are due in September this year, so at least I have time. It’ll be an exciting month for you too!
My latest YouTube video outlines the series on my list, where I’m up to and why I’m looking forward to continuing with them.
