GMA Book Club List 2026
The GMA Book Club List 2026 is a complete list of the Good Morning America Book Club picks for the year. I have been a fan of GMA for a long time. In 2025, GMA started including a YA pick in addition to the adult pick each month. I love the choice of books, but I sometimes get confused about which book was released when. To keep it straight, I wanted to divide the full list by year and give reviews for the books that Jackie and I have read.
Jackie and I read a lot of books, especially celebrity book club picks. We often get spoilers in advance, so we have the opportunity to read the book before the release dates. We want to ensure that we are reading the best books so we can give you the best recommendations. If you are looking for the complete Good Morning America Book Club List, I have that list too.
Whether you are reading the book for yourself or to read with a book club, picking your next book can be difficult. I hope this list helps give you some great ideas of what to read next. The GMA Book Club chooses a wide variety of books. You will find everything from YA fantasy to thrillers and historical fiction. Jackie and I consistently love the GMA book club picks.
