March is all about fantasy books—bonus points for mythology retellings, but any fantasy subgenre works!

REMINDER: You don't have to only post the books you read that fit the theme, as long as one or more of your reads during the month match the prompt!

If you have any questions, check our general FAQ topic and see if it's been answered already. If not, ask away!
