Thanksgiving will be here soon and then comes Christmas! I don't think I can handle the way time is flying - LOL! Soon I plan to start Shadow of the Hangman by Edward Marston. I haven't read any of his books yet so we'll see how this one is.

Good Morning ladies reading Secrets of the Otherworld by Kelly Armstrong, It is paranormal. I will switching over to HF after this one is done. Alice |

I am enjoying The Wild Hunt :: Elizabeth Chadwick Elizabeth Chadwich is one of my favorite historical fiction writes. The Wild Hunt is her first book. The writing is not as refined as her current books but is still a beautiful story. She has the wonderful gift of a story teller that just pulls you into a time long ago and you can not stop reading. Very enjoyable.

My current read is the historical, Bridges Over the Delaware River by Frank T. Dale, which is quite interesting. Who knew there were so many bridges on this river! It's fun. |

Cheryl, I love the Captain Altriste series! Purity of Blood was my favorite! I'm reading The Black Widow by Daniel Silva - not HF, but an easy read. Last Edited on: 11/3/16 10:51 AM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

Hello --- Well I am pretty much stuck in a rut of historical mysteries. Somehow they do not much deserve mention in this Hall of History!!! Perhaps in the new year I will get off to a better start and get a few "serious" books in the reading queue!! |

Becky I love historical mysteries. If had to read only one genre it would be historical mysteries. My next swap game with the HIstory/Mystery for both historical fiction and mysteries but I will have a prize for historical mysteries.. Alice |

Nothing wrong with historical mysteries, Becky. I love them too! |

I am reading Glory Over Everything: Beyond The Kitchen House :: Kathleen Grissom Several years ago I read her other book A Kitchen House for my book group and enjoyed it quite a bit. I like this one so far. Strong writing style. Love the map in the front of the book. Last Edited on: 11/10/16 7:01 AM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

I am reading The Hangman's Daughter. It's the first of a series by Oliver Pötzsch AND it's a historical mystery Debbie |

I liked that one Debbie and you have reminded me that I have the rest of the series on my Kindle to get to. |

The second one in that series, The Dark Monk, was very good too, maybe even better than the first one. I finished it up just recently. |

I'm beginning To Marry an English Lord. Has anyone read it? |

Not fiction but definitely has a mystery to it even though it's true. I've had this book on kindle for a while now and for some reason it jumped ouot and yelled for me to finally read it. So far, so good... |

|

I am reading Hanging Mary :: Susan Higginbotham It is about Mary Surratt set in 1864-65. It was thought she was involved in the Lincoln Assassintation. Very interesting perspective. Susan Higginbotham has a wonderful writing style and has many other HF available. She is now focusing on some US historical figures rather than England. Alice |
