Back To History - DONE

Okay, I probably should start to limit myself about now, but this challenge doesn't start until 2008 and sounds absolutely fascinating. I LOVE historical fiction, but read far too little of it, so this is a great chance for me to read (or reread) a bit more of it.

The challenge is to read one historical non-fiction, or historical fiction novel a month. They can't all be of the same type (all novels, all biographies, all memoirs etc.) but otherwise no limits. I haven't completely figured out my list yet, but as it runs for all of 2008 that doesn't matter really :)

For now it looks something like this:

• "Such a Time as This" by Rebecca Velez
  
• "The Last Jew" by Noah Gordon (novel)
  
• "Pope Joan" by Donna W. Cross (novel)
  
• "Those Who Trespass Against Us" by Karolina Lanckoroska
  
• "The Red Tent" by Anita Diamant (novel)
  
• "Wild Swans" by Jung Chang (non-fiction)
  
• "A Diary Of A Young Girl" by Anne Frank (journal)
  
• "The Hiding Place" by Corrie ten Boom (non-fiction)
  
• "The Clan of the Cave Bears" by Jean M. Aule (novel)
  
• "Selected Journals Volume II" by L.M. Montgomery (journal)
  
• "The Scarlet Spy" by Andrea Pickens
• Water for Elephants - Sara Gruen

but I hope to find more inspiration from Mr. Linky on the original challenge site.
