So I'll be taking it a bit easier this year and striving for a book a month, so somewhere between the Medieval and Renaissance level. <br /><br />This year, I'll be reading historical fiction that is "new" to me, be it about a historical person I'm not familiar with, from a time period I've not read much on before, a little known aspect on a larger historical event, or an area of the world I've not read about or only a little about before. So looking forward to a productive 2016! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13458128919216842204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5552020989914140175.post-48084114176074726992016-01-02T07:10:49.770-05:002016-01-02T07:10:49.770-05:00I'd like to say I'll reach Renaissance lev...I'd like to say I'll reach Renaissance level, but it will probably be just over Victorian (I don't read all that many books a year, due to my dyslexia) However, I'm already half way to the 20th Century reader, because I'm reading a historical fiction book right now, and I have three more ARCs in waiting that are historical fiction books.
