In my 20+ years of running Geeks Of Doom, I don’t think I’ve ever done a Book Recommendations/Reading List specifially for Spring. Usually books that are released during the Winter and Spring seasons get folded into Summer or Fall Reading Lists and/or Gift Guides. But this year, I was feeling quite inspired and actually had the time to put something together for Spring.

Below are some titles — with accompanying links to the print, ebooks, and audiobooks editions — that I am personally looking forward to checking out this Spring, most of which land in the science fiction, fantasy, horror, roleplaying, historical fiction, and non-fiction categories and their subgenres. The first list of books is listed in order of release date from January 2026 through April 2026. After this main list, I’ve included some older titles to read before their new movie/TV adaptations come out. Finally, you’ll find a bonus section featuring themed Cookbooks, Craftbooks, Guides, Coloring Books, Sourcebooks, Card Sets/Games, Journals, and Accessories that are perfect companions for your Spring reading adventures, and also make great gifts.
