    I've Read 100 Books This Year. I Can't Stop Thinking About These 5

    103 books this year and these five still won't leave me alone. This week I'm going through the first five books from 2026 that are still sitting with me, weeks or months later. Fair warning, this batch leans heavy: grief, secrets, hard family stuff. Once There Were Wolves by Charlotte McConaghy, a wolf reintroduction program in the Scottish Highlands that turns into something much darker. Anatomy of an Alibi by Ashley Elston, a twisty thriller where literally everyone is hiding something. I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy, the most honest memoir I've read this year. The God of the Woods by Liz Moore, my top pick of the year, no contest. And The Midnight Library by Matt Haig, for anyone who's ever wondered about the life they didn't choose. Part 2 is next week and it's the fun ones. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one. View my book recommendations by mood on ⁠Britt's Bookshelf⁠.

    Heir of Fire: He Bit Her!

    Witches, wyverns, and a fae who bites people. Book three did not hold back. This week I'm reacting to Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas—book three in the Throne of Glass series. We've got Celaena drunk on a roof, a fae warrior named Rowan with an interesting training method, a wyvern named Abraxos who is now my everything, and enough love interests that I am losing track.

    Ask Britt: My Brain Is Everywhere & I Need A Book

    Ashley wrote in for this week's Ask Britt. She's about to have her second daughter, her brain is in ten places at once, and she just needs someone to tell her what to read next. This week's mood-based book recommendations are for the reader whose brain needs something it can actually enjoy right now — Remarkably Bright Creatures by Shelby Van Pelt (literary fiction with an octopus narrator who will steal your heart), Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan (pure fun, family chaos, zero emotional labor), and The Marlow Murder Club by Robert Thorogood (cozy mystery you can dip in and out of without losing the thread).

    Assassin's Blade: Give Us Some Joy, Please

    I went into Assassin's Blade already knowing how it ends—that has been spoiled since Throne of Glass. Knowing what was coming didn't make it hurt any less. This week I'm reacting to Assassin's Blade by Sarah J. Maas, the Throne of Glass prequel—five novellas following Celaena Sardothien before the events of book one. One devastating throughline with an ending that's going to take me a few days to recover from before I can even think about Heir of Fire. Spoilers throughout. New episodes every week.

    Ask Britt: Characters You Can't Stop Watching

    Miriam wrote in for this week's Ask Britt. She just finished Yesteryear and wants a book she won't feel meh about. She'd rather be furious at a character than apathetic—she wants to feel like the read was worth it. This week's mood-based book recommendations: three literary fiction picks for the reader who wants to feel something. The God of the Woods by Liz Moore (a mystery that will make you quietly furious at every adult in it), Once There Were Wolves by Charlotte McConaghy (a wolf reintroduction story that's been rolling around in my head for weeks), and Yellowface by R.F. Kuang (a narrator who makes every wrong choice available to her and cannot stop watching). New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one.

    Ask Britt: 3 Thrillers That Will Wreck You

    Vridiana wrote in for this week's Ask Britt—mood-based book recommendations for the reader who wants to feel something. She wants a gripping thriller that hooks her from the premise and wrecks her a little. Three thriller recommendations, lightest to darkest: First Lie Wins by Ashley Elston (twisty and fast, all the fun of a thriller without the heaviness), The Guest List by Lucy Foley (atmospheric suspense with a wedding, an island, and everyone hiding something), and The Good Girl by Mary Kubica (psychological thriller with a kidnapping at the center and a plot twist I did not see coming). Pick based on what you're actually up for right now. View my book recommendations by mood on ⁠⁠Britt's Bookshelf⁠⁠. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one.

    Crown of Midnight: I Still Don't Know Who the Love Interest Is

    I somehow avoided Throne of Glass spoilers for 14 years. I went into Crown of Midnight—book two of the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas—completely blind and I am still no closer to solving this love triangle between Celaena, Chaol, and Dorian. This week I'm reacting to Crown of Midnight: the moment everything fell apart, the betrayal I did not see coming, and the ending that made me wonder why I'm supposed to read Assassin's Blade next instead of going straight to Heir of Fire. Spoilers for book two. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one. Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas.

    Ask Britt: Your Hockey Romance Starter Pack

    Abby just finished watching Off Campus and wants to know what to read next. She's already read Elle Kennedy and wants the same vibe: found family, banter, hockey romance. I've read 35+ hockey romances, so I feel well-qualified to answer this week's Ask Britt. I matched her to a series based on her favorite Off Campus character — four characters, four series, at least 20 books waiting for her. If you loved Off Campus and want your next hockey romance recommendation, this episode is for you. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one.

    Throne of Glass: I'm Officially On Nox Watch

    I somehow avoided Throne of Glass spoilers for 14 years. I went in completely blind on a friend's recommendation and was at the store buying Crown of Midnight before I finished book one. This week I'm reacting to Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas — book one of the Throne of Glass series. The competition that falls into the background, the court politics I was not prepared for, Celaena Sardothien as a main character, and Nox, who I am officially putting on my watchlist. Spoilers for book one. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one. Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas.

    Ask Britt: Cure Your Xaden Hangover

    Elisa loved Xaden in Fourth Wing and couldn't find the same feeling anywhere else. She wants to be completely absorbed — love, tension, any genre. This week's Ask Britt mood-based book recommendations for the reader coming off a Fourth Wing hangover. I'm recommending A Shadow in the Ember by Jennifer L. Armentrout (a morally gray Primal of Death who is immediately, hopelessly down bad), Empire of Flames and Thorns by Marianne Blackwood (fantasy Hunger Games with enemies-to-lovers and dragons), and Gloves Off by Stephanie Archer (hockey romance where Alexei sends flowers as a declaration of war).

    Passion Project: Betrayed by a Pasta Carbonara

    One of the best books I've read in a long time and I've been recommending it to everyone. A reaction to Passion Project by London Sperry—a contemporary romance about grief, hope, and finding your way back to yourself. Henry is the love interest we all deserve, and the first line of this book had me immediately. If you loved a slow burn romance with real emotional depth, a New York City setting, and a love interest who plays the long game—this is the book for you. Full spoilers. New episodes every week.

    Trial of the Sun Queen: Cue the Mulan Training Montage

    Hunger Games meets The Bachelor—and it actually works. My reaction to Trial of the Sun Queen by Nisha J. Tuli, book one of the Artefacts of Ouranos series. A fantasy romance with competition trials, slow burn tension, a plot twist I did not see coming, and a love triangle that gets complicated fast. I downloaded book two before I finished recording this. Full spoilers. New episodes every week. Follow so you never miss one. Trial of the Sun Queen by Nisha J. Tuli.
