Historathon TBR

  

Here is my TBR for the Historathon for the month of February. Sorry about the photo, but at least you can see the titles of the books.

This readathon goes for the entire month of February. There are nine challenges and I chose a book for each one even though this is a busy for me. If  I don't get them all read I will be able to double up on most of them. Now for the challenges and the books I chose for each one.

A book set in a place you have visited: I have decided to reread the book These Happy Golden Years by: Laura Ingalls Wilder. This past summer I went to DeSmet, SD to visit the Little House

A Multi-generational book: I have decided to read The Vanishing Half by: Brit Bennet. I don't know anything about this book except that it won the Book of the Month book of the year.

Book about a war that is not WWII: I picked The Fountains of Silence by: Ruta Sepetys. This was last years group book and I never got it read. This is about the Spanish war.

A book by a diverse author: I will be reading Under a Painted sky by: Stacy Lee. This book is also about the second world war.

Group book: The Yellow Bird Sings by: Jennifer Rosner. I don't know anything about this book

A historical fiction Sub-Genre: I will be buddy reading this book with my daughter Tara and that book is The Diviners by: Libba Bray. This book is set in New York in the 1920's

A book with no people on the cover: I will be reading Between the shades of Grey by: Ruta Sepetys.  Again another book set during WWII.

A book set in winter: I will be rereading  the book The Long Winter by: Laura Ingalls Wilder.

A book with  a person's name in the title: I will be reading Sophia's War by: Avi This book is about the Revolutionary War.

It is already the fourth of February and I haven't even started reading any of these. Two will be read soon because I am using them in another readathon that starts on the 7th and ends on the 10th. That TBR will be up tomorrow hopefully.

Are you joining this readathon and if you are what are reading. I enjoy historical fiction and I am always keeping an eye out for new ones. Even better if they involve other wars not  based on WWII.

Until next time keep reading.
