Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently added to my TBR pile. I’m still going to be linking up with Wishful Endings/Can’t Wait Wednesday, and I also want to give a shout out to Jill at Breaking the Spine for starting the original Waiting on Wednesday meme. I hope you’ll find some new books to add to your TBR piles, and as always, I look forward to hearing what YOU’RE looking forward to:-D
Today I have three new books by authors I already love, take a look:
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Sara Raasch returns with the much anticipated conclusion to the bestselling Royals and Romance series!
SPRING: When Iris’s sister ends her engagement to the Valentine’s Day prince, the truth comes out about who’s really keeping Easter afloat: Iris. But is finding meaning for her Holiday the only thing Iris wants . . . or does she want her friends-with-benefits relationship with the St. Patrick’s Day Princess to mean something, too?
SUMMER: As Iris and Finn fight for their second chance, the St. Patrick’s Day King mends the bonds broken within his family. But the strongest bond is the one Loch has with the soft-hearted Prince of Christmas, and an ancient Irish festival will let him seal it for the rest of their lives.
AUTUMN: Another question gets asked at the annual Halloween celebrations, and Halloween’s heir wants to say yes to the Christmas King―but merging two Holidays is impossible. Hex will have to choose once and for all: his future or his Holiday.
The Royals and Romance series ends with stories that remind us of the most important magic of all: Joy.
Joyfully Ever After by Sara Raasch. Releases in March 2027 from Bramble. I loved the first two books in this series, and it looks like this will be the last one. If I’m understanding this, it’s three separate stories rather than one novel, which I’m not too keen on, to be honest. But of course I will read it, and hopefully the characters mentioned above will cross over into all three stories.
A shy young woman and her deeply unpleasant―and literally porcelain ―sister fight for their inheritance, taking on an impossible array of enemies, including a chain-smoking demon crow, an unkillable assassin, and a secret clan of French sorceresses. In his newest adventure from the world of Harrison the Monster Detective, Daryl Gregory (Spoonbenders) takes us on a dizzying yet poignant romp through the horrors of sisterhood.
Ruth Winslow is trying to save up enough money to finish college while looking after her sister, Isabel―who happens to be a haunted doll. When an accident severely damages Isabel’s porcelain body, the sisters have to find the only woman who can fix her, the fearsome witch known as La Fabricante: the Dollmaker.
The sisters head to Marseille, where they take on Le Clan: Chiffon, a red-headed, unkillable assassin; a collection of angry, haunted dolls; plus a pair of demons―one a cigarette-smoking crow, the other a black cat―and their human familiars.
Along the way, the sisters learn that they’ve been lied to their entire lives. Their mother wasn’t just a homemaker who died in a car accident, she was a legendary enforcer in the Le Clan des Sorcières.
While Ruth has to come out of her shell and deal with her own latent powers, Isabel has to grow up in a body that can’t grow. Together they’ll have to outwit and outfight everyone to claim their birthright.
The Porcelain Sisters by Daryl Gregory. Releases in October 2026 from Tachyon Publications. This sounds freaking amazing! And I’m so excited to see a new Daryl Gregory book, one of my favorite authors (who doesn’t write fast enough for me, lol). The blurb above mentions this is set in the world of Harrison Squared perhaps? In any case, I can’t wait to read it:-)
A desperate writer’s pursuit of a powerful literary agent takes a dark turn in this new novel from the internationally bestselling author of The Hitchcock Hotel and Darling Rose Gold.
All Arnie Tenderton wants this Christmas—all he’s ever wanted—is to be a published author. For decades he has toiled over one novel after another. Each was missing something. Until now.He’s finally written his perfect book.
What he needs next is a literary agent, someone who can get his book into publishers’ hands. Not just any agent will do, of course. Arnie wants the best. Arnie wants Claudia Conley.
She already rejected him once, and Arnie has never forgiven her. He could move on. Instead, he finds out where Claudia is spending the holidays: alone in a remote house in the Catskill Mountains. He decides to show up there to make his pitch.
Claudia may try to turn him down again, but this time Arnie won’t take no for an answer.
Because his book is about her.
And he’s not leaving until the story ends the way he wants.
Revenge Plot by Stephanie Wrobel. Releases in November 2026 from Berkley. I loved Wrobel’s last book, The Hitchcock Hotel, so I’m thrilled to see she has a new book coming out this year. Bonus points that it revolves around book publishing!
