Wrap-up post: 2014 Historical Fiction Reading Challenge

As in 2013, I signed up for the Historical Fiction reading challenge, because let´s face it, I read a lot of historical novels. This year is unusual in that only about a third of the books I completed were historicals, but then again, some of them were more than a thousand pages long, so that has to count for something.
