Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted over at Broke and Bookish. This weeks was a freebie so I chose the topic Top Ten Historical Fiction Books
The Fever Tree by Jennifer McVeigh
The Lady of the Rivers (The Cousins' War #3) by Philippa Gregory
KIYA: Hope of the Pharaoh (KIYA trilogy #1) by Katie Hamstead
The White Queen (The Cousins' War #1) by Philippa Gregory
The Song of Troy by Collen McCullough
The Queen's Fool (The Tudor Court #4) by Philippa Gregory
Favorite Daughter (Part One) by Paula Margulies
A Great and Terrible Beauty (Gemma Doyle Trilogy #1) by Libba Bray
Grave Mercy (His Fair Assassin #1) by Robin LaFevers
Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices #1) by Cassandra Clare
I know that some of them are rather fantasy mixed with historical aspects but I decided to count them as historical fiction because I loved them so much.
Clockwork Angel is amazeballs! <3 I want to read Libba Bray's Gemma Doyle Trilogy! It sounds fantastic :D
ReplyDeleteThe Gemma Doyle trilogy is one of my all time favorites. I would really recommend it :D
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
great list! I wish I had thought of that. :O
ReplyDeleteMY TOP TEN TUESDAY!
Thanks Christine!
DeleteA Great and Terrible Beauty was on my list today sort of too....And I love Grave Mercy. I need to read more historical fiction. It's one of my favorite genres.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. My post is about the 10 series I never finished. here's mine
Historical fiction is such a great genre. I should read more books in it though.
DeleteThanks for stopping by Danica!
YAY for historical fiction! I, unfortunately, have not read the books on this list (although Infernal Devices and His Fair Assassin are on my TBR), but I'm a huge fan of the genre. One of my absolute favorites is The Traitor's Wife to Allison Pataki, which details the betrayal of Benedict Arnold with the help of Peggy Shippen from a maid's point of view. If you are in to the Revolutionary War, I would definitely recommend it to you:) Love the post:D
ReplyDeleteClaire @ Cover to Cover
I haven't read The Traitor's Wife yet but it sound good, I'll definitely check it out. :D
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
You know, I expected more from Clockwork Angel. People were telling me it was steampunk, and I was totally in a steampunk phase... I think reading it after the Leviathan series left me a little disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear that. But I get it why you were disappointed when you were looking for steampunk.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
I like your list. I like Historical fiction too. But I have heard of many of these but not read any of them. Thanks for sharing this lovely list. You can find my TTT list at:

Oh yay! I have Kiya on my kindle to read at some point!! I really want to try it...I confess I'm actually notorious for reading HF. I have good intentions but I then never get around to them. >.>
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by @ Paper Fury!
Kiya was quiet good and interesting since I had never read a book about old Egypt before. I hope that you like it when you get around to reading it.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
Great list! I love Grave Mercy, and A Great and Terrible Beauty is on my TBR. :)
ReplyDeleteGrave Mercy is so amazing. And I really hope that you like A Great and Terrible Beauty.
