This is a genre that I kind of always go back to, it doesn't matter what I read I always gravitate towards a historical book in form or another, so here are 10 books or series that I love....
1 - Outlander - Diana Gabaldon
I found this series in 2017, but i didn't start reading it until 2018, I am still chugging through it, it's a long one but it is so enjoyable and it's easy to lose yourself in this series.
2 - War's of the Roses' Series - Con Iggulden
This is one of the first series that got me into the War's of the Roses era, it's so fascinating and it's also very well written unlike some i could mention.
3 - Parasol Protectorate - Gail Carriger
This is a paranormal historical fiction but it is one that I absolutely love, it's set in Victorian London and full of amazingness.
4 - Game of Thrones - George R.R Martin
Does this really need explaining.
5 - Devil's Consort - Anne O'Brien
This is a book about Eleanor of Aquitaine, it's so good, all of her books are but this the first i read from this author and it stuck with me.
This is a series set in 18th Century Cornwall in England and it is full of intrigue and if you have watched the BBC series then this is a must read.
7 - The Confession of Catherine Howard - Suzannah Dunn
I was around 14 or 15 when i read this book but it has stuck with me, it tells the story of the Catherine we know the least about, it is very good, and i highly recommend it.
8 - To Defy a King - Elizabeth Chadwick
This is another book that i loved, when i first read it, this is about the daughter of William Marshal one of the best Knight's in English history, but it's full of drama and it's just a very well written book.
9 - Six Queens Series - Alison Weir
Sometimes i feel that the Six queens are overdone, but this series puts a new spin on them that no one else has thought of, and for that it is the most superior of Tudor fiction.
10 - Diary of Anne Frank - Anne Frank
I Feel that this is a must read for anyone, it is real and these events actually happened, i personally think that everyone should read this book to understand the history of what was going on.
