Thank you for all these great recommendations.

Lady Tan’s Circle of Women by Lisa See. It’s about one of the only female doctors during the Ming dynasty.

Last Russian Doll by Kristen Loesch- it’s about the 1917 Russian revolution, a story of betrayal, revenge, love following three women in two different time periods. A great read.

Another great historical fiction - The First Ladies by Marie Benedict - a story about partnership and friendship between Eleanor Rosevelt and her African American civil rights activist friend Mary McLeod Bethune. I learnt a lot reading about Mrs. Rosevelt.

This video popped up when I was scrolling last night and I have to say I loved all your recommendations!! I have had such a hard time finding HF recs that aren’t WW2 setting so I love that you included so many other time periods. You also are great at explaining books. Subscribed! 😊

You’re very good at describing these books! I love that you’re talking about historical fiction books! It seems like most book tubers only talk about contemporary romance and fantasy romance (which there is nothing wrong with) but it’s nice to see different books talked about ❤

Historical fiction is my fave! Giver of Stars was so good! Kate Quinn is my favorite! I am so excited for her new book this year.

Hi Christie - I enjoy your channel very much and am so impressed by the breadth of all that you read! Thank you for all your content. I second Amy Harmon's What the Wind Knows as a magical read. Since you enjoyed the pack horse book you rec'd I thought you might want to check out Carry the World by Susan Fanetti. It's actually a historical romance rather than historical fiction that tells the story of a young widow's experience as a pack librarian who encounters a widower with two young children along her route. It's a beautiful story and feels very immersive in the time period.

My favorite historical fiction book of 2023 was Go As A River by Shelley Read. Also seeing as you liked the pack horse library story try The book woman of troublesome 5 star for me

❤📚❤️ Great recommendations.
I enjoyed Surviving Savannah by Patti Callahan in 2023.

Christi, I recommend you read, Her Heart for a Compass (Buccleuch Family, #1) and A Most Intriguing Lady (Buccleuch Family, #2) by Sarah Ferguson The Dutchess of York. These are books based on her ancestors.

I’m eating up all these recs! Any plans on making a historical fiction rec video that are available on KU or scribd?
