Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's theme is Bookish Goals for 2024. However, don't really have that many goals, other than tryig to review all the historical fiction novels I read, and I am already behind on that goal! I am therefore going rogue and instead sharing some of the books that were reviewed multiple times during the 2023 Historical Fiction Challenge. On the weekend, I revealed the book that was reviewed most during the challenge (five times) and the three books that were reviewed four times. You can see those books here along with other statistics.
Today, I will be sharing the five books that were reviewed three times, and then five (out of the 75) books that were reviewed twice.
First off, here are five books that were reviewed three times:
A Marriage of Fortune by Anne O'Brien - It has been an age since I read any historical fiction with a medieval setting.
Strangers in the Night by Heather Webb - This book tells the story of Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner
The Last Lifeboat by Hazel Gaynor - This sounds like a very interesting story
The Orchid Hour by Nancy Bilyeau - Love this cover!
The Romantic by William Boyd - This book was longlisted for the Walter Scott Prize for Historical Fiction
And here are five books that were reviewed twice which I have picked for various reason to share today
The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak - I loved, loved,loved this book when I read it a couple of years ago.
The Sun Walks Down by Fiona McFarlane - This is another book that was shortlisted for the Walter Scott Prize. She is an Australian author, and I feel like she probably goes under the radar a little bit here.
Weyward by Emilia Hart - This was the winner of the Goodreads Choice Awards for Historical Fiction in 2023.
The War Nurses by Anthea Hodgson - I really liked this book when I read it last year.
The Little Wartime Library by Kate Thompson - I keep on being reminded that I really need to read this book!
