Why I'm Interested:
I love historical fiction! I always shoved this genre to the side in favor of fantasy and paranormal, but I rekindled my love of historical fiction in 2013 and I'm hoping to continue in 2014. I also went on a buying spree and brought home a whole bunch of historical fiction books that I don't want to leave unread for years.
