I found this great challenge on Taking on a World of Words. The challenge was simple – read 12 books set in 12 different time periods of world history in 2017. I didn’t know about it or start it until June 2017 but I love a good challenge!
- The complete challenge will include 12 books from the following eras:
- Pre 1500 The Inquisitor’s Tale by Adam Gidwitz
- 1500-1599
- 1600-1699
- 1700-1799
- 1800-1899
- 1900-1919
- 1920-1939 The War That Saved My Life by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley
- 1940-1959
- 1960-1979
- 1980-1999
- 2000-Present
- The Future
