Historical Fiction Reading Challenge: September statistics

Every month I share some of the statistics related to the Historical Fiction Reading Challenge. I try very hard to visit every post which has been linked (time permitting) and I find it interesting to see what are the books that people are reading and reviewing! I often end up adding a couple of books to my never ending TBR list.

In terms of the books read in September, there were 57 reviews linked up for the challenge, shared by 19 participants. There were 53 individual titles reviewed, written by 44 different authors, There were 4 reviewers who reviewed 5 or more books each. Thank you to everyone who shared their links whether it be 9 or just 1.

So which books were reviewed more than once in July? There were four this month which is the most that we have had for a long time! All of these books were reviewed twice this month.

A Carol for Mrs Dickens by Rebecca Connolly tells the story of Charles Dickens' wife. It was reviewed by Laura from Laura's Reviews and also at The Chocolate Lady's Book Reviews. 

Agatha Christie is always well represented in the challenge and this month was no exception. At Bertram's Hotel was reviewed twice by Laura at Laura's Reviews and by Shellie at Shellie Loves Books. 

I was a bit surprised to see The Briar Club by Kate Quinn reviewed twice this month given that it was released a few years ago now. I reviewed it here and it was also reviewed at Reading World

The final book to be reviewed twice this month was The Heir by Darcie Wilde which is the first book in a new series which features the future Queen Victoria as a sleuth! It was reviewed by Kim at Goodreads and Laura from Laura's Reviews.

We also had multiple authors who were reviewed more than once this month

Kim at Goodreads is continuing her reread of the Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes series by Laurie R King. This month she shared 6 reviews of books from the series. You can check out Kim's Goodreads profile here.

There were four books by Irina Shapiro reviewed this month. Laura at Reading Books Again reviewed The Highgate Cemetery Murder which is part of the Tate and Bell series and then Bev from My Reader's Block read three books from the Redmond and Haze series.

I was pleased to see that Kim on Goodreads also contributed reviews for a format we don't often see. She read two of the graphic novels in the Enola Holme, The Graphic Novels series by Serena Blasco.
