Episode 48 | Booked We’re Hyped for in 2026
Books We’re Hyped for in 2026 | Most Anticipated Fantasy & Romantasy Reads | Booked for Two Podcast
New year, new dragons, new chaos.
In this episode of Booked for Two, we’re breaking down the books we’re most excited to read in 2026 — a mix of romantasy, epic fantasy, dragons, prophecy, and emotionally destructive authors we trust with our hearts.
This isn’t a ranked list and it’s not a prediction episode. It’s just two readers talking about the stories that already have us feral — based on authors, vibes, and past emotional damage.
No spoilers. Just hype.
Books we’re hyped for in 2026:
Ballad of Fallen Dragons by Sarah A. Parker
Rider of Dragons by A.T. Qureshi
Red God by Pierce Brown
The Red Winter by Cameron Sullivan
Dragon Cursed by Elise Kova
The Wicked Sea by Jordan Stephanie Gray
A Forsaken Prophecy by Stacy McEwan
A very hopeful Book 2 from Jaysea Lynn 👀
In this episode:
Why these books immediately made our 2026 TBR
What we’re expecting based on authors, series momentum, and themes
Dragons. A lot of dragons.
Which books feel like guaranteed emotional damage
Fantasy vs romantasy vibes and who each pick is for
How hype lists help shape our reading plans (and sanity)
📅 Programming update:
Our I, Medusa Deep Dive has been moved to January 30th — mark your calendars.
