February 2026 Favorite Reads

February is the shortest month of the year, but felt so long this time around. The Super Bowl back at the beginning of the month feels like ages ago. In the past month, I had surgery, slowly recovered, ended up back in the hospital for a few days, and then recovered again. Today’s my first day back to work in over 2 weeks and of course, I had to throw in a little stomach bug before coming back to work too. Through this rollercoaster of a month I was able to read some great books and gain a new handful of favorite reads.

Of the 10 books I finished reading in February, 5 of them were books I loved enough to list them as a favorite for the month.

In no particular order my favorites were:

• Two Can Play by Ali Hazelwood – review to come tomorrow
• To Sir Phillip, With Love by Julia Quinn
• Arcana Academy by Elise Kova
• Wisteria by Adalyn Grace
• Wild Reverence by Rebecca Ross

Of these 5, the book that was my top favorite was Arcana Academy!

Here’s to a much calmer March filled with good books!
