I'm a big cozy mystery reader and where there are cozy mysteries there are lots of series! I'm trying to make progress and get caught up on 10 different series and when that happens, I roll in a new one. In 2025 I focused on reading one from each series and this year my plan is to get at least one series completed. Here are the 10 series I'm working on for 2026.
1. Crouching Buzzard, Leaping Loon by Donna Andrews - I love the later books in this series and have enjoyed the beginning books. This is the next one and I'm hoping I like it better than the previous book where Meg got on my nerves a bit.
2. Murder in the Paperback Parlor by Ellery Adams - I'm still not sure what I thought of the first book in the series so I'm going to give it another chance with the second book before I make a final decision regarding finishing the series.
3. A Gala Event by Sheila Connelly - I'm not loving this series anymore but I only have a couple left so I feel like I should finish it. I'm hoping that I enjoy this one.
4. The Book Stops Here by Kate Carlisle - The next one in the bookbinder series and another one I only have a few left on.
5. Mrs. Jeffries on the Trail by Emily Brightwell - I really loved the previous book in the series and am really looking forward to this one.
6. A Fatal Waltz by Tasha Alexander - I have enjoyed this historical mystery series so far and am looking forward to reading this new one.
7. Give Up the Ghost by Juliet Blackwell - This is a fun series involving a general contractor who accidentally specializes in haunted places. I'm looking forward to this one.
8. Panic Button by Kylie Logan - This is the series I'm most likely to finish this year as there is only this book and one more left. So far, it's been a fun read and it's amazing just how much stuff there is to know about buttons.
9. Marshmallow Malice by Amanda Flower - This fun series set in an Amish candy shop is a good one and one I'm looking forward to getting back to reading!
10. Queen of Hearts by Rhys Bowen - I really enjoy this series involving 34th in line to the throne Georgie and have especially enjoyed the most recent books. This is one of the few in the middle that I missed for whatever reason and I'm looking forward to picking it up.
Are you a series reader? What series are you hoping to read in 2026?
