About Me

Hey there and welcome to Historical Fiction Reader.

I’m Erin, the genre enthusiast behind the blog. I started reviewing in 2010 and posted regularly on Goodreads through 2021. I traded regular posts for the solitude of my personal library for a few years after that but decided it was time to return to the online book community in 2024

Like many readers, I can’t remember a time I wasn’t addicted to the written word and while my obsession extends to several genres, historical fiction is my favorite stomping ground and the only genre I review. Literary, biographical, mystery, cozy, alternate, fantasy, western, romance, religious, cultural, translated, graphic novel, war fiction, etcetera, and so on. If it incorporates history in any way, I’m interested.

My review scale:
1 – Not recommended.
2 – Readable, but it didn’t speak to me.
3 – Enjoyed it and would recommend it. Solid story.
4 – Had trouble putting it down and will probably talk your ear off about it.
5 – Sacrificed sleep to finish it, loved every word, and can’t stop thinking about it.

At this time, I am not accepting review requests or taking part in virtual touring. I genuinely appreciate being considered as a potential promoter, but I cannot accommodate publishing schedules at this time.

Happy Reading - Erin
