I love to read (bet you didn't know that) so I've decided with the new year that I was going to participate in a few new reading challenges. Late last December I signed up for the Historical Fiction Reading Challenge started by the ladies @ The Royal Reviews and today I just signed up for Margaret's first ever Christian Historical Fiction Reading Challenge! I've posted the details from Margaret's site below! If you think that this sounds like something you would like to do please visit Margaret's blog @ Creative Madness and sign up today!

1. The goal is to read and promote Christian Historical Fiction by reading at least 24 titles. That is two per month, but anyone who wants to commit to more or less is welcome to join in on the fun. Anyone can join. You do not need a blog to participate. Margaret has started a CHF Ning to promote discussions as well.

2. Audio, Re-reads, eBooks, and other formats are all allowed. As long as the book can by purchased it counts.

3. Feel free to list a proposed lists of TBR (to-be-reads) but you can also list them as you go.

4. Duplicates from other reading challenges can also count.

5. Challenge begins January 3rd through December 31st. Books started before count.

    Thanks for posting about this challenge, Renee. I'm almost finished with a book by Linda Weaver Clarke which would qualify--although I don't know if I could read 24!

    Renee, I'm so glad you'll be doing this, too! I'm putting my post together right now. ;) Looks like our Vikings are heading to some playoffs. So glad they won their game tonight! The last 2 games were utterly embarrassing. Shameful to be quite honest! sigh...

    Happy historical reading,
    Mimi @ Woven by Words
