  9. I thought I'd hit enter but don't see my comment so, if this is a duplicate please delete one!

    My question is, are you going to do a Mr Linky for the challenge as you did this year or is it only via Facebook for linking?

  14. I'm working on an all inclusive post of all the reading challenges I want to do in 2023, but it will only go up in January. I came close to Prehistoric in 2022 with 47 books, and I'm betting I'll be at about the same level in 2023! Looking forward to more great historical fiction reads!

  27. I'm happy to be joining in again! I do have a question--I think of historical fiction as something set in a time earlier than the author's. But would classics count as well? Books like Dickens' or Agatha Christie's which were contemporary in their time but historical for us?
