Sign Up to Join the 2021 Historical Fiction Reading Challenge Here!
About the 2021 Historical Fiction Reading Challenge:
For 2021 this Reading Challenge will be now hosted by Marg at The Intrepid Reader. Marg actually hosted the challenge before passing the baton to Amy at Passages to the Past, and now she’s passing it back to her.
The History behind the Reading Challenge:
The Historical Fiction Reading Challenge has been around for many years in one form or another. Marg believes that the Historical Fiction Reading Challenge started at a blog called Reading, Writing and Ranting since at least 2008 before it was taken over by The Royal Reviews which is when Marg started participating! In 2011, Marg started co-hosting at Historical Tapestry until Amy from Passages to the Past took over in 2015 and has been doing a stellar job ever since.
Reading Challenge details:
Each month, a new post dedicated to the HF Challenge will be created where you can add the links for the books you have read. To participate, you only have to follow the rules:
Everyone can participate! If you don’t have a blog you can post a link to your review if it’s posted on Goodreads, Facebook, or Amazon, or you can add your book title and thoughts in the comment section if you wish.
Add the link(s) of your review(s) including your name and book title to the Mister Linky we’ll be adding to our monthly post (please use the direct URL that will guide us directly to your review)
Any sub-genre of historical fiction is accepted (Historical Romance, Historical Mystery, Historical Fantasy, Young Adult, History/Non-Fiction, etc.)
During the following 12 months you can choose one of the different reading levels:
- 20th Century Reader – 2 books
- Victorian Reader – 5 books
- Renaissance Reader – 10 books
- Medieval – 15 books
- Ancient History – 25 books
- Prehistoric – 50+ books
The linkup page to join this challenge is here, but you don’t have to have a post about it, if you don’t want. You can just sign up with your general blog as well!
Don’t forget to use the challenge hashtag #histficreadingchallenge, and grab your challenge badge (above, and here):

Oh… strange… Do try again… I remember there were some glitches earlier this year. Also, sometimes the icon for the link to the link party doesn’t show up, but if you click on the “broken link” picture (one that looks like a ripped piece of paper), you can still get into the link party.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I usually remember to do this one and the New Releases Challenge but there are others like a NetGalley and an Edelweiss one that I always forget! No matter, as long as you do my #ThrowbackThursday, the world is fine!
