Once again I am counting down to the New Year, as with the previous years I shall be highlighting at least one book per day to fit the prompt on that given day. The main aim for this countdown is to highlight some of my reads during the past year and to shine the spotlight on them once again (although some of the prompts relate to forthcoming reads).
Today is Day 2 of the countdown to 2026 and a list of prompts can be found here if you wish to join me in counting down to 2026 and casting a spotlight on some of your favourite books.
Today’s Prompt : Shopping – the last book added to your wishlist:
Nowhere Burning by Catriona Ward. I’m very excited for this book, it’s not due out until February 2026 so there’s a bit of a wait, but it’s the last book I added to my wishlist.
29 Days Remaining
Tomorrow’s prompt: Wrapping paper – a lovely cover


No wonder this is on your list! It sounds great
I like this author and so it’s exciting when I see a new release.

I’m excited to read this! You never know what she’s going to write next😁
I know, she has such a unique style and plenty of new ideas.
Can’t wait.

You are brave! I did enjoy The Last House on Needless Street, but that was really out of my comfort zone.
Mine is nonfiction: https://wordsandpeace.com/2025/12/02/countdown-to-2026-day-2-shopping/
I really like this author, I know what you mean though, Needless Street was gripping and a bit terrifying too.
Lynn 😀
No kidding! I don’t think I’ll ever forget that book!
Nice pick. Here is mine: https://angelsbooknook.com/2025/12/02/day-2-shopping-31-days-of-books-a-december-countdown-to-2026/

I too added this one to the wishlist recently. I’m always up for checking out whatever Catriona Ward writes!
I’ve not read everything she’s written but I have enjoyed those I’ve picked up so I’m always curious. Whenever I see an anticipated release by Ward I pretty much want it!
