<p>For someone who greatly prefers stand-alone reads, I have accrued a phenomenal list of mostly fantasy and/or mystery sequels/continuations I’m looking forward to this year:</p><p>- The Raven Scholar continuation<br>- The Sorcery and Small Magics continuation<br>- The Stranger Times continuation<br>- The Tainted Cup continuation <br>- Cursed in the Lost City, sequel to Cursed Under London (I feel like Gabby Hutchinson Crouch is massively underrated in the light fantasy arena)<br>- The Exquisite Torment of Loving Your Enemy, sequel to The Irresistible Urge to Fall For Your Enemy (even if it is Dramione fanfic)<br>- The Tapestry of Fate, sequel to the Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi<br>- Father Material, final (I assume) in the Boyfriend Material series<br>- the Helle and Death continuation<br>- the Blanchard Twins continuation</p><p>And that’s just what occurred to me off the top of my head.</p><p>What big sequels are you anticipating in 2026?</p><p><a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#books</a> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://fedigroups.social/@bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span> <a href="/tags/reading/" rel="tag">#reading</a> <a href="/tags/series/" rel="tag">#series</a></p>
