Thursday Threads - Inspirational Historical Fiction




There are so many wonderful pieces of historical fiction and I am inspired by many different things.

I think one of the most inspirational books that I read last year was A Parcel of Ribbons by Anne M Powers. I read and reviewed this in December. You can read this review HERE

  1. For me the most inspirational book I've read is Zenobia - Birth of a Legend. OK, I'm being biased, my father n law wrote it. I would have loved the story either way, it's a true historical figure who became Queen and challenged Rome. I was shocked I had never heard about such an awesome woman in history.

  2. A Northern Light, by Jennifer Donnelly. I also loved three books by Margaret Lawrence that take place in upstate Maine right after the American Revolution called, The Burning Bride, Hearts and Bones, and Blood Red Roses.

  4. Mine was most definitely Trianon, by Elena Maria Vidal. I cried throughout the book and I could not believe the strength of Marie Antoinette and Louis days before their death. I loved this book!

  5. I enjoyed this book and it was interesting. The only downside to it, is that the author I felt was very bias towards Anne.
    The Equation book
