first book haul of 2026 🤯📚❤️‍🔥 [lots of new release books, thrillers, and a special edition]

I actually recently got about like 60 pages into this one before I decided to DNF. I just really don't think this is the thriller author for me. I'm just not really vibing with the writing style or the characters in this book very much.

I mean, I think the only special editions that I even have are for some of my like top all-time favorites like Fang Girl and Evelyn Hugo and maybe like Aristotle and Dante.

This is from the same author as The Astrology House, which is a thriller that I read the year that it came out, and I really did like it. I think I gave it like a three and a half out of five stars. But I remember thinking when I was reading it, like, I definitely want to read more from this author cuz I really liked the writing in that one.

And I ended up really enjoying this one a lot. I gave it four stars. It is one that I would highly recommend.

I think I really connect to this book so much because of the way this main protagonist is such a fan girl and the way that she talks a lot about fang girl culture. It just really hit home for me and I felt very seen by this main character. So, I love fan service so much and I'm very excited that I now own both of these copies.

I mean, I think the only special editions that I even have are for some of my like top all-time favorites like Fang Girl and Evelyn Hugo and maybe like Aristotle and Dante.

And even though I was not the biggest fan of that thriller, I think I gave it like two stars, even though it was so popular, but I really wanted to give this author another shot.

But I also just thought this one was so entertaining and so well written. So I would definitely recommend this one. I think I gave it four out of five stars.

This is one that I only ended up giving three stars to, but if you want to hear all of my thoughts on that, I'll have the reading vlog linked down below.

I ended up giving this one three stars overall, but I'm so glad that I read it.

Some of my favorite books from him include No Exit and The Last Word.

I'm so glad that I was able to find it because I ended up reading this book actually during Winterween and this is a thriller that really surprised me. I had a lot of fun with this one. I gave it four stars.

Some of my favorite books from him include No Exit and The Last Word.

And this one's by Matt Query and Harrison Query, which that was the author duo that wrote the book called Old Country. That was like one of my favorite horror books.

There are so many things about this book that I am absolutely loving that I was like, "Holy I have to buy a physical copy so I can annotate in it because of how much I'm loving it." So, I'm only halfway through this book at the moment, but it feels like it could be like maybe a four or a five star for me.

I recently actually just read a book from this author and I really liked it.

This one also really intrigues me because it says, "Perfect for fans of the Midnight Library and the Ministry of Time, which are two books that I've absolutely loved."

This one's a sci-fi nolla and I loved this so much. Like an easy five-st star book for me. One of the best books that I've read so far this year.
