As always, I have been keeping an eye on new books coming soon in 2026, despite already having so many other books on my TBR list…
In fiction, Departure(s) by Julian Barnes is said to be the Booker Prize-winning author’s final novel about memory and illness and will be published this month. A much talked-about debut novel due in February is Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash about a dysfunctional family. Hooked by Asako Yuzuki and translated from the Japanese by Polly Barton follows the phenomenal success of Butter with similar themes of food and loneliness in contemporary Japan and is due in March.
