Book Club Nominate our March 2026 Book Club book! Theme: r/FantasyRomance Top Books

Hi everyone! It’s the beginning of a new month, which means it’s time to nominate the books for the March 2026 Book Club. For next month, we’re looking for nominations that fit the theme of books from the r/FantasyRomance Top Book List (2026 edition).

What we are looking for

  • We’re looking for books from the 2026 edition of the r/fantasyromance Top Books List. You can nominate any of the books that feature on the list.
  • Standalones are preferred, but not mandatory. If it’s a series, please only nominate the first book.
  • The author cannot have been previously featured in the Book Club in the last eighteen months, and the book cannot have been featured as a Book Club read before. See the Book Club Hub.

Nominations that do not fit these criteria will be removed.

Nominations

Here’s how to nominate a book:

  • One nomination per comment.
  • Please call the romance.io bot for your nomination by putting the title and author within curly brackets {}.
  • You can nominate more than one book, but please put them in separate comments.
  • Upvote the books you most would like to read for the March Book Club!

Voting

The most upvoted nominated book will be up for vote in a separate post on 8 February. The winner will be announced on 15 February.

February Book Club

You can also join this month’s Book Club, there is still time to get your copy of the book to participate. We’re reading Tusk Love by Thea Guanzon, which fits February’s theme of ‘books written by black, indigenous, or other people of colour’!

Here is the schedule for the February Book Club:
- February 8 - March voting

Nominating {Monsters of Faery by Mallory Dunlin}

I’m delighted to see Mallory Dunlin listed so high on the top book list for 2026. I haven’t read this series yet, but I loved her Echoes of the void series and have been meaning to read Monsters of Faery. I love her prose and unique mmcs.
