Baddie Read Book Advent 2026

24 days. 24 little bookish rituals. One year of reading to look back on.

Book Advent 2026 is an illustrated Notion Advent calendar for readers who like thinking about books almost as much as reading them.

From December 1 to 24, open a new door each day. Some prompts ask you to revisit the books that shaped your year. Others encourage you to reconsider your TBR, share recommendations, defend questionable literary opinions, or make plans for your next reading year.

What's inside:

• 24 illustrated Advent doors, each with its own reading prompt
• Four types of activities: Reflect, TBR, Connect, and Play
• Space to write your answers and keep your thoughts
• A simple checkbox to mark each day complete
• A reading-year reflection section to fill in before December begins
• A 2027 TBR seed list and a final shortlist for the books you actually want to read

How it works

Duplicate the template into your Notion workspace and open one door each day from December 1 to 24. Complete the activity, write as much or as little as you like, and tick it off when you're done.

Miss a day? Open three tomorrow. Change your mind about a book? Rewrite your answer. This isn't a reading challenge with targets to meet.

It's a small December ritual for people who have spent the year reading, abandoning, recommending, arguing about, and thinking about books.

Please note: This is a digital Notion template, not a physical Advent calendar. A free Notion account is sufficient to use it.
