TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 4d

Cuilin Love it!!!! I need to check out some of those titles. 4d

Read this for #bookedintime @Cuilin I skipped over this one when it came out, but I‘m so glad this challenge brought it back to my attention! The humorous tone reminded me very much of Doomsday Book by Connie Willis which I loved!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I personally love this time period. So much drama and so much to choose from. Thanks to @rubyslippersreads for suggesting this prompt.

While England Sleeps: A Novel | David Leavitt

pick

#BookedInTime
I don‘t care about the controversy surrounding this novel. Was a page or two plagiarized? Writers get inspiration from many sources including real people. Putting those pages aside (which the author literally did, and rewrote them) this novel is beautiful and it deserves all the stars. ⭐️

dabbe I'll be finishing the #ShardlakeSeriesBR with the tagged in January. I'm thoroughly enjoying rereading these historical mystery reads! 🤩

Revelation. C.J. Sansom

dabbe Reminder to everyone: we have a spreadsheet with all of the books we've read! Here's the link:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sLpOtIgy6SwJkyU0wwno2MN4YUbe0ldjPwSusW3g... 3w

Cuilin @dabbe Thank you, for reminder about the spreadsheet. I thought Shardlake would work for this prompt. 😉 3w

rwmg How would you feel about a separate tag for announcements of upcoming periods to be discussed, such as BookedInTimePeriods? I plan each month's reading at the end of the previous month and I can't always find what the period is easily. 3w

Karisimo @dabbe @cuilin I‘m definitely using shardlake for this one! (edited) 2w

Cuilin @rwmg yes I can create a separate hashtag like #BookedinTimeJanTudors Would that work? 2w

Cuilin @Karisimo I‘m looking forward to it but worried about adding another series to my TBR lol 😆 2w

ChaoticMissAdventures This is perfect I had this one on my TBR all this year and kept putting it off. This gives me more incentive to pick it up in January

Wolf Hall

Cuilin @ChaoticMissAdventures loved that trilogy, perfect choice 2w

dabbe @Karisimo 🤩🤩🤩 2w

dabbe @ChaoticMissAdventures On the spreadsheet! 🤩 2w

dabbe @Bookwormjillk On the spreadsheet! 🤩 2w

rwmg I was thinking of something more general. If I've forgotten the prompt, which I usually have by the beginning of the month, I can't look up eg Tudors. so I need something like BookedInTimeJan2024 2w

Cuilin @rwmg Got it!! I can absolutely do that. I‘m not adverse to posting a few hashtags. 2w

rwmg Thank you 😘 2w

julieclair Love this time period! 2w

julieclair @rwmg (and everyone) I have set up a challenge on StoryGraph that lists all the prompts, if that would be helpful to you: https://app.thestorygraph.com/reading_challenges/2cdac7b0-0085-4e6b-b601-f63cbd6... 2w

kspenmoll I have Hamnet in my TBR so that will be my choice! 4d

Cuilin @kspenmoll I loved it. Enjoy. 3d

Jess861 I'm planning to read either The Wise Woman or The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory.

@julieclair - thank you for the storygraph add for bookedintime! I find it such a great tool to track prompts for challenges!

I‘m just putting it out there for all to see. I will still do a monthly post. As a reminder, all are welcome to join this very low-key Buddy-read. All genres are included from graphic novels to spy thrillers, horrors and actual history books.

I can't praise this enchanting tale too much. It has given me so much joy over the last few days. It was an absolute perfect winter read.

Get lost in the magical world of Papa Jack's Toy Emporium. You won't regret it.

Also ✔️ the prompt for London between the wars #BookedinTime @Cuilin @dabbe

Bright Young Dead: A Mitford Murders Mystery | Jessica Fellowes

I really wanted to like this series, but I find the bright young things tiresome and boring. I finished it, but this will be the last of the series I read.
