2026 on Goodreads

Goodreads Year in Review

by Various

Whether or not you've had time to write your own reviews, here's a chance to review your entire 2026 reading and post it under this title so that others can see what your reading year was like. Together, all the reviews of 2026 on Goodreads should make an interesting and varied catalogue of books to inspire other readers in 2027.

For those of you who don't like to add titles you haven't actually 'read', you can place 2026 on Goodreads on an 'exclusive' shelf. Exclusive shelves don't have to be listed under 'to read', 'currently reading' or 'read'. To create one, go to 'edit bookshelves' on your 'My Books' page, create a shelf name such as 'review-of-the year' and tick the 'exclusive' box. Your previous and future 'reviews of the year' can be collected together on this dedicated shelf.

About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

[Jayson · Rating 3 out of 5]

2026 is already half over?! Man, I feel old... 👀⌛🪽🫤

Every Rating & Review for 2025

The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/01/2026
Notes: Not the best rhyming—rough lyrical timing—but spark and spirit shine, a morality mentality, cool character designs.

Horton Hatches the Egg by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 81% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/02/2026
Notes: An absent-mama family drama (versus foster saints), where taking care means being there, all-in without complaints.

Horton Hears a Who! by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 81% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/03/2026
Notes: A helpless-saving, never-caving, doubting-Thomas tale, where all-for-one is how it's done—the smallest tip the scale.

Horton and the Kwuggerbug and More Lost Stories by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 77% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/04/2026
Notes: Short magazine bits (some awkwardly fit), on big imaginations—conniving tales to make a sale and wild speculation.

Fox in Socks by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 83% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/05/2026
Notes: Phonetic fun, and deftly spun, while barely point nor plot, it makes you rap a twister trap to tie your tongue in knots.

Hop on Pop by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 77% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/06/2026
Notes: Not much to say, no plot conveyed, a kiddie say-and-see, it's fun, I guess, but nonetheless, it really isn't made for me.

If I Ran the Zoo by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/07/2026
Notes: Fantastical beasts—an ocular feast—albeit for youth (and might do the trick), its silliness shtick gets long in the tooth.

Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 81% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/08/2026
Notes: A terribly clever vignetted endeavor (less silly, more surreal), for kiddos, sure, if more mature, still breezy, no ordeal.

The Lorax by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 80% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/09/2026
Notes: A complex flow—more Shelly/Poe than standard Dr. Seuss—straight '70s feel, its eco spiel's real on-the-nose profuse.

From Dead to Worse by Charlaine Harris and Johanna Parker
(B+) 77% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/09/2026
Notes: A-to-Z makeover—hostile takeovers, cuts and additions, clearing debris—and side-quest spree: no principal mission.

A Touch of Dead by Charlaine Harris and Johanna Parker
(B+) 76% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/10/2026
Notes: Goes light—no bite, nor real fights, and sex is fade to black—just small-town rosy, camp and cozy, inbetweener snacks.

Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 82% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/11/2026
Notes: Quite like a song (or sing-along), a chorus-like refrain, all simple words, the plot's absurd—enchanting the mundane.

Dr. Seuss's ABC by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 76% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/12/2026
Notes: An okay abecedary: no real detail (no scenery nor any ostentation), example words can get absurd, if fine alliteration.

Scrambled Eggs Super! by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/13/2026
Notes: An avian listing (all non-existing), silly, creatively strong, but doesn't change, no story range, just cruises far too long.

The Sneetches and Other Stories by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 76% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/14/2026
Notes: The concepts are winning if simply beginnings—no stories, just hooks—all heat-up then feet-up, and not a one cooks.

Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? by Dr. Seuss
(B) 75% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/15/2026
Notes: A beastie see-and-say-with-me, for tots to echo sounds, both meh and mid, for pre-word kids and ergo not profound.

I Can Read With My Eyes Shut! by Dr. Seuss
(B) 73% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/16/2026
Notes: Just doesn't have juice—its scribbly/loose, phoned-in art is lazy—sadly weak and not unique, too tepid (never crazy)

Yertle the Turtle and Other Stories by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/17/2026
Notes: Like fables of yore, vainglorious chores, animalistic pride, and lowliest souls demolishing goals: big ego trips denied.

Dead and Gone by Charlaine Harris and Johanna Parker
(B+) 77% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/18/2026
Notes: Story goes fairy (less fangy and hairy), a real Tinker-bellum, a ton of lore but unexplored—less showy, more a tell 'em.

One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 79% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/19/2026
Notes: Like political toons, a pithiness boon, tight and deftly-done, the artwork's fire—for Seuss, no higher—silly/clever fun.

The Cat in the Hat Comes Back by Dr. Seuss
(B) 75% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/20/2026
Notes: Repetitive plot, creative it's not and never any spark, Mini-Me Cats (matryoshkas in hats) are fun but jump the shark.

What Pet Should I Get? by Dr. Seuss
(B) 73% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/21/2026
Notes: Clearly unfinished, if cleaned-up, diminished, more BTS than book, experimental, sentimental, still, it's worth a look.

And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/22/2026
Notes: Not very loose (the earliest Seuss), simple if solidly done, not very kinetic, a Pre-War aesthetic, vanilla if visually fun.

Oh, the Places You'll Go! by Dr. Seuss
(A-) 81% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/23/2026
Notes: Graduation motivation, visually not-so-great, but emotion-profuse, the last Dr. Seuss, on adventure and what awaits.

Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are? by Dr. Seuss
(B) 75% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/24/2026
Notes: Not on luck, more "working sucks," here "luck" is being young (a softer life devoid of strife), its moral's pretty dung.

The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 77% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/25/2026
Notes: Less Seuss in style, not juvenile—rhyming's more loquacious—recycled plots show up a lot, in all, far less audacious.

If I Ran the Circus by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 76% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/26/2026
Notes: It's hardly crazy, fairly lazy—rhyming nonsense words—though not a fail, gets rather stale: could cut at least a third.

The Foot Book by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/27/2026
Notes: No plot nor feeling, hits a ceiling—subject matter's feet!—though solid stuff, it's kiddie fluff and not quite Seuss-elite.

Oh, the Thinks You Can Think! by Dr. Seuss
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/28/2026
Notes: Feels out of joint, no real point—like random poster pieces—feels franken-fit, still, art's a hit: nice whimsical caprices.

Marvin K. Mooney Will You Please Go Now! by Dr. Seuss
(B) 73% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/29/2026
Notes: Green Eggs and Ham would/could-you spam but minus any thrills: only shooing, no pursuing, Marvin's standing still.

I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today! and Other Stories by Dr. Seuss
(B) 75% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 01/30/2026
Notes: More a mix of same ol' tricks than fresh/distinctive stories—just sequel shots or retread plots—recycling prior glories.

Detective Comics (1937-2011) #821 by Paul Dini
(B+) 79% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 01/31/2026
Notes: Plot makes sense if sapless/dense but artwork truly shines: real versatile, dual color styles, two looks but intertwined.

Detective Comics (1937-2011) #822 by Paul Dini
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 02/01/2026
Notes: On lovers spurned, villain turns, clandestine kinky sex, while sleuthing-high it's awful dry—too knotty, too complex.

Detective Comics (1937-2011) #823 by Paul Dini
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 02/02/2026
Notes: Less in-the-weeds detective deeds, if still a sleuthing case, as well it's drawn like early Spawn—a total change of pace.

Detective Comics (1937-2011) #824 by Paul Dini
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 02/03/2026
Notes: Eccentric foes, cool cameos, nice parodies as well, though lessened stakes, a buoyant break and welcome sitcom spell.

Detective Comics (1937-2011) #825 by Royal McGraw
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 02/04/2026
Notes: No hunt nor clues (just barbecues) a kind of vengeance ghost—fiery clashes, monster mashes—victims here are toast.

Detective Comics (1937-2011) #826 by Paul Dini
(A-) 80% | Very Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 02/05/2026
Notes: Jingle thrills, Joker kills, Robin's forced to watch, while one-note plot, brings home a lot and stakes are raised a notch.

Nemesis Forever #1 by Mark Millar
(B) 75% | More than Satisfactory | ⭐⭐⭐ – 02/06/2026
Notes: Hardly plot, just scattershot (the villain acting vile), most striking thing's a visual swing—the artist changed his style.

Nemesis Forever #2 by Mark Millar
(B+) 77% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐ – 02/07/2026
Notes: Still pretty thrilling, tons of killing—villainous and gory—subplot's nice (cool plot device), but not a clear main story.

Nemesis Forever #3 by Mark Millar
(B+) 78% | Good | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ – 02/08/2026
Notes: High-tension stuff if story-rough, good scenes but out of joint, all ordeal, no big reveals nor clues re: what's the point.

🌱‎⊹₊╰ GUYS BRB WHILE I GO CRY BECAUSE 2025 IS ALREADY ENDING. I feel like the years keep going by faster and faster, and soon enough I won’t even have time to breathe!! Anyways, 2025 was such an incredible year because I got to fully embrace my love for reading and lock in. I AM HOPING BY THE TIME THE END OF THE YEAR COMES I WILL HAVE AT LEAST 90-100 BOOKS DOWN. (Praying to God I lock in and speed read) But not only did I read incredible books, but I also got to meet amazing people on this app that mean the WORLD to me. The support and comments everyone leaves never fails to make my day. (AND I MEAN THAT!) So anyways, let me hold back in my long ramble and let’s get into my tracker!! ꒷꒦ 🍵₊‧

⤿ all this advice was given to me by my closest friends, I really hope I can read a good part of it.

✧ giada: good girl bad blood, bittersweet, a touch of darkness
✧ giu: unloved, rewind it back, the deepest end of love
✧ kella: beg borrow or steal, the rose bergain, if it makes you happy
✧ vita: betting on you, once upon a broken heart, picking daisies on sundays
✧ kris: once upon a broken heart, magnolia parks, heartache and hope
✧ asia: picking daisies on sundays, unconditionally mine
✧ ellie: once upon a broken heart, divine rivals, lovely war, assistant to the villian
✧ aislinn: one true loves, the housemaid
✧ ivy: play along, i hope this doesn’t find you, wild side
✧ jae: ripple effect, the cruel prince
✧ rina: the shadows between us, these violent delights
✧ kenzy: foolish hearts, vicious, normal people

₊˚.🗒 ≡ i want to start by saying that this is my first year doing this, so please don't judge. secondly, this review took a lot of time to do,and i really pour my heart into fixing, designing & developing it to it's finest. therefore, i prefer if no one steals my idea since it's completely mine (if not told otherwise) and i think it's better to do your own thing. thanks for understanding <3

ㅤ ׅ 𝄂𝄚𝅦𝄚𝄞𝅄ㅤyou seem pretty sad for a girl so in love prompts!
⪼ credits to my love minnie, who came up with this idea. i love her to the moon and to saturn (and back) .ᐟ check out her review here !



⤿ “you're lookin' like an angel on the walls of versailles, the most alive i've ever been, but kiss me and i might drop dеad”
opposites attract —


⤿ “ i feel right, i feel wrong, i feel totally insane, and i want you more than any stupid song could ever say ”
enemies to lovers —


⤿ “ it's too hard to describe this, in a way that feels honest, but even when i’m quiet, i love you, baby, i promise ”
slow burn —


⤿“ and sometimes, at a low point, i even wish for a tragedy, cause i know hе'd come over and take rеal good care of me ”
“who did this to you?” —


⤿“ but i got a feeling wounds are healing, talking on the phone, i know everybody changes, but i hope that we don't, carve our names into the car seat leather, you plus me equals a heart forever ”
friends to lovers —


⤿“ let me be direct: just stop, you're being fucking weird, maybe i'm a petty bitch, but you made me resort to this ”
revenge —


⤿“ it's a small world (it's a small world), when it only can revolve around us two ”
us against the world —


⤿“ why can't you come stitch me up?, why can't it ever be enough? ”
right person, wrong time —


⤿“ all that i want is to know undoubtedly, that you just have eyes for me, could you make it clear?”
mutual obsession —


⤿“ say i'm in love, so it's hard to admit, i can't eat, i can't sleep, i think you're what's wrong with me”
rivals to lovers —


⤿“ if loving me means letting go and wishing me the best, then i guess, i wish, i wish, i wish you loved me less”
second chance romance —


⤿“ past mistakes are just new information, these days, i've got expectations ”
grumpy x sunshine —


⤿“ i thought that we played the perfect couple, til you didn’t want the part”
fake dating —


⟢ note: i’m ngl, these lyrics were hard to find a fitting trope for, but i did my best <3

🎄 Happy Holidays and A Big Thank You! 🎄

I would like to take this moment to wish all my Goodreads friends a happy holiday season. And if you don't celebrate, I hope you are finding reading joy in your pages!

I'd also like to take this moment to thank you all for liking and commenting on my reviews. It means so much to me! It is because of you that I am the #2 best reviewer in Canada, and for that reason, I get many ARCs*, so I am much obliged.

Most of all, I'd like to thank you for writing your reviews. You, my GR friends who are readers/reviewers, are the reason I love Goodreads so much. I have found so many page-turners because of your hard work, and I have loved reading your amazing and thought-provoking reviews. I truly hope I have guided you to a few of your own!

May this holiday season find you joyous and wrapped in love, and may 2026 bring you health and much happiness.

With love and best wishes, for a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,

Shelley's Book Nook 🤗💕📚

[vanessa ⋆.☕︎ ✦ I am back ✦]

𝜗𝜚 vanessa's 2026 year in books 🌷
ִֶָ𓂃 ࣪˖ ִֶָ🐇་༘࿐ I can’t believe 2025 is almost over, just two months left! Time is flying by so fast, it’s like we barely even feel it. So here I am again, wrapping up another year with a little review and hoping it’s filled with books I love and adore. 💕
Next year will be a bit different though, I’ll be busy studying for some really important exams, so I probably won’t be reading as much until mid year. But I’ll still try my best to stay active, interact with you all, buddy read with you, and keep up the same energy as this year. 🐚🪕🦢📜


✩‧₊˚🎐 Goals I want to achieve this year:
☕︎ Read at least 100 books. 21/100
☕︎ Complete more series I am in the middle of. 0/7
☕︎ Do at least 8 buddy reads. 2/8
☕︎ Read more of my physical tbr. 0/10
☕︎ Learn to dnf.

°˖🖇️ alphabet reading challengeˎˊ˗

2026 + 26 letters of the alphabet?! it’s the perfect time for me to do the alphabet challenge! I have chosen mostly themes / tropes / plots that I have never read or want to read more of for each letter and I can't wait to see how this goes!

a book with:
☑ A- age-gap: older
☐ B- bestseller from 2025
☐ C- college setting
☑ D- dark academia genre: if we were villains
☐ E- european setting
☐ F- forced proximity
☐ G- groundhog-day trope
☐ H- horror genre
☑ I- island setting: nocticadia
☐ J- jaw-dropping plot twist
☐ K- kidnapping
☐ L- love triangle
☐ M- mental health representation
☐ N- nanny trope
☐ O- one-word title
☐ P- popular right now
☐ Q- queer romance
☐ R- road trip plot
☐ S- sport romance
☐ T- thriller that has been turned into a movie/series
☐ U- unhinged characters, plot or humour
☐ V- villain as the main character
☐ W- womanhood plot / subplot
☐ X- xenial theme or character
☐ Y- YA book releasing in 2026
☐ Z- Z in the title or authors name

⌞manas' 2026 reading goal : 100 books⌝

💌 hi queenies. this is a working progress so please ignore some of the edits i make. i am mainly focusing on reading diversly—whether that is by genre or author—and am not so focused on the numbers. i do read a lot since this is my main form of entertainment, but for 2026, i am hoping to get into some more general fiction—as this is a genre i've loved ever since getting into books. my all-time favorite genre both in books and movies are thrillers, mysteries, and horror—which i have slacked on A LOT this year. best believe, i will be adding all of them to my 2026 reading year. i read pretty much everything besides nonfiction, so if you have any recommendations, please let me know in the comments. i can't believe 2026 is almost here—crazy fast times. i am beyond grateful that you're here and i love and appreciate all of you for your kindness and support. i have found the absolute BEST people through this app. i am forever thankful! 💌
