Historical Fiction Reading Challenge: August 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.

August was a good month. There were 46 reviews linked up for the challenge, shared by 16 participants. There were 45 individual titles reviewed, written by 45 different authors. There were 3 reviewers who reviewed 5 or more books each. Thank you to everyone who shared their links whether it be 6 or just 1.

So, was there a specific book that was reviewed more than once this month? Yes, there was!

Little Spark by Jess Kidd was reviewed twice. Firstly, Cathy from What Cathy Read Next shared her review, and then Helen from She Reads Novels also reviewed the book. 

In terms of authors who had more than one book reviewed there was just one, but what is interesting is that while it is the same author, her name is slightly different so I had to be careful to make sure that I picked this up!

Barbara from Stray Thoughts has been working her way through Elizabeth Gaskell's books. Early in the month she reviewed Cranford which is credited as being written by Elizabeth Gaskell. Then she read My Lady Ludlow which is credited as being written by Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell. Interesting!

I am sharing this with Sunday Salon hosted at Readerbuzz and A Good Book and a Cup of Tea hosted at Hopewell's Library.
