Historical Fiction Reading Challenge: September Linky

August has been another good month in the Historical Fiction Reading Challenge with over 50 new reviews being linked up during the month!

 Great effort! Now...onto September!




I am looking forward to reading more of your reviews throughout the coming month! I am sure there is going to be a lot of great historical fiction discovered and shared with fellow HF lovers during the coming month and beyond! 


If you haven't already signed up, it's not too late! The sign up post is here.



Just to recap what participants need to know. At the beginning of each month I will put up a post which will have a Mr Linky embedded into it for you to add your link.

Please remember...




  • add the link(s) of your review(s) including your name and book title to the Mister Linky we’ll be adding to our monthly post (please, do not add your blog link, but the correct address that will guide us directly to your review). A direct link to your Goodreads review is also acceptable
  • any kind of historical fiction is accepted (fantasy, young adult, graphic novels...). If you aren't sure if your book counts as historical fiction, check out this definition.
  • if you have time, have a look some of the other links that are present. You never know when you will discover new blogs or books!
I have created a group on Facebook which you can find here and don't forget to use the #histficreadingchallenge hashtag on the socials.


Let the reading begin!!

  1. I've just linked to a YA book Newes from the Dead by Mary Hooper. It's set in 1650 and based on the true story of Anne Green who was hanged for committing the crime of infanticide, and woke up on the dissecting table at Oxford University. Fascinating!
