New books releasing in March 2026
Highlights include Claire Douglas’ newest thriller and Eye Spy by C. M. Ewan.
I may be a bit late getting this published (sorry!) but March is an absolutely cracking month for new releases. Honestly, there are so many books out that I’m not sure how anyone is supposed to keep up. We are spoiled beyond measure, with so many special books out. I’ve already read a few of these, and trust me when I say you’re in for a treat.
March 2026 releases: Highlights
It’s impossible to highlight everything out this month, because there are undoubtedly so many good books I’m not even aware of. But I’m very much looking forward to the 31st March digital launch of Michael Wood’s Evil in the Family, the third book in the Olivia Winter series. Eye Spy by C.M. Ewan is also worth getting excited about, given the number of positive reviews for this train-based thriller so far. I’m also very much looking forward to The Lottery Winners Widows Club by Elly Vine, the first from Lucy Vine under her new thrillerish pseudonym.
As for what I’ve read already, Unreliable Narrator by Araminta Hall is a twisty, clever novel of two halves; This Story Might Save Your Life is an absolutely unforgettable novel blending thriller and romance in a very clever format; and The Family Friend by Claire Douglas is a top-notch mystery novel from my favourite thriller-gateway author.
For the paperback readers amongst you, you’ve got some real treats, too. One of my favourite ever romance novels, Overdue by Stephanie Perkins, is out this month. There’s also The Death of Us by Abigail Dean, Believe by S.M. Govett and Our Beautiful Mess by Adele Parks, all five-star reads.
