Book Bingo is a reading challenge hosted by Theresa Smith Writes , Mrs B’s Book Reviews and The Book Muse. Every second Saturday, book bingo participants reveal which bingo category they have read and what book they chose.
This week I have chosen the category 'Historical'
Historical Fiction would be one of my favourite genres. I have read a lot of Historical fiction set in Australia and England, particularly London. However I have rarely read any set in America.
I think that is why I found The Glovemaker so refreshing and intriguing.
Set in a small Mormon community in Junction, Utah. It was a fictional tale about a real breakaway community of seven Mormon families. Set in the winter of 1888 the land was harsh and rugged.

Book Bingo sounds like a ton of fun! I haven't read many historical books set in the US either, particularly those set pre-WWI. I suspect I don't want to feel like I'm back in the class room in either US History or Montana History.
ReplyDeleteHistorical fiction is a favorite genre as well. Anything Tudor related and I'm hooked. The Glovemaker sounds like a good one.
ReplyDeleteI bought this one recently after reading Brooke's glowing review over at 1girl2manybooks. Looking forward to reading it. Great review!:)
