I've been waiting for a historical fiction challenge as well. I'll go for Prince level. My reviews will be posted on Shelfari and I'll provide a link.

Thanks for doing this. I'm joining, for Prince level as well. I read a lot last year, but as I'm working on the 52 countries challenge, I may not be able to read as many historical novels, though my first one is on Egypt!!: http://wordsandpeace.com/2012/01/04/historical-fiction-reading-challenge/
ReplyDeleteThere is an existing historical fiction reading challenge that has been running for a number of years. The details for 2012 are here

We have a group on Goodreads where people are posting reviews and talking http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/60650.Historical_Fiction_Challenge_2012
ReplyDeleteI don't see how to access the specific reviews of members of that group, I don't see any clear how-tos, so I'm just going to give up, and join the other historical novel challenge
