‘Rules’

  • Determination of what year a book belongs in is the decision of the participant. On the whole, choose a year where the largest part of the action occurs or the most important event.
  • I will compile a list of those participating on this page but you can link back to this page to be added to the list so that other participants can find us!

If you want to see examples, you can see my Challenge page for an idea of how to start.

    I’m definitely back for another year. I’ve made a good start with a mystery set in 1952. I suspect the hardest one to fill for me will be 1200-1499 again . I need to find a good book set in the Wars of the Roses 😃

      I do not. You can check my books for the last few years in the Challenges menu of my blog. You can also explore other folks lists that I’ve linked to in the page for this year and for past years if you want to get some ideas for where others have been successful. I also find Goodreads lists to be a good source when looking for inspiriation!

        Thanks for your reply, I might have a go, I saw I’ve read a couple on someone’s list already. Do you have to read them in that order and when do you link ..weekly? Also could not see a follow button for WP on your post 🙂

        Hi, Ali. You can read them in any order you’d like! How often you want to link is up to you. I’ll add a link to a site you choose but I don’t update it once added. I use a page and update that page as the challenge goes on.
        I have a subscribe option and a follow via email options on my homepage if you want to follow the blog. Happy reading!
