The Victorians

The Victorians: Twelve Titans who Forged Britain | Jacob Rees-Mogg

Apologies for delay. I hope this is an easy one for all and we can get something off the TBR!!!

Pick any location of your choice. I‘m drawn to anything London and Dickensian for this time period. What about you? @LitsyEvents

BarkingMadRead I‘ve never read the others, even though I have them 🤣 sad but true 2y

AllDebooks Perfect choice for December 😍 2y

kspenmoll I think i have 2 options in my TBR so I will join in! 2y

tdrosebud I also always read A Christmas Carol in December. 2y

rubyslippersreads This will be fun. I saw so many good recommendations during #Victober 2y

Cuilin @rubyslippersreads what is this Victober you speak of? Intrigued. 2y

Cuilin @kspenmoll fabulous 2y

Cuilin @AllDebooks thanks 😊 2y

dabbe Ooh, this will be a fantastic one! Thanks @Cuilin! 🤗

Favor: If you have moment, would you check your books on our spreadsheet and make sure I have them in the right time period? I have a feeling I've made lots of errors. If you also want to tell me if it was a pic/so-so/ban/bail, that'd be great. You can just reply here or in a new post. Thanks!

rubyslippersreads @Cuilin It‘s a yearly Victorian reading challenge for October. Go to YouTube and search Victober, and there are lots of videos recommending Victorian books. I didn‘t participate, but I did add some books to my TBR. 2y

Cuilin @rubyslippersreads fabulous, I‘ll check it out, thank you. 2y

ChaoticMissAdventures I have, and have been meaning to read

Of Human Bondage

Bookwormjillk Count me in as part of The Christmas Carol gang. I always read the book and see the play. 2y

Cuilin @ChaoticMissAdventures depressing read as it is, I loved it. 2y

Cuilin @Bookwormjillk 👍🌲🎭 2y

Mollyanna I always read A Christmas Carol too, so I‘m in for that. May see if I can find another too though. 2y

rwmg I may well while away a morning or afternoon with A Christmas Carol but I also have my eye on

The Penguin Book of Victorian Women in Crime: Forgotten Cops and Private Eyes from the Time of Sherlock Holmes

rwmg @dabbe I can't open your spreadsheet 2y

dabbe @rwmg That's weird; I made it available to everyone. How about this link?

Cuilin @Mollyanna same 2y

Cuilin @rwmg I like both choices 2y

PathfinderNicole Probably going with A Christmas Carol but leaving my options open! 2y

rwmg @dabbe That works, thank you. For the Roman section, I read:

Bodies Politic
No Cause for Concern
Solid Citizens (plural not singular)

You have the books but not the ratings. They were all picks 2y

dabbe @rwmg Think I fixed them all. Thanks. 🤩 2y

sblbooks I have several Christmas novels that will work for this time period.🎄 2y

Cuilin @dabbe A Place Called Winter was a pick for me. (Canada) 🙏 2y

Cuilin @sblbooks wonderful (edited) 2y

Cuilin @PathfinderNicole 👍 2y

JessieKB A Holiday by Gaslight-London ❤️❄️ 2y

dabbe @Cuilin Got it! 🤩 2y

dabbe @JessieKB By Mimi Matthews? If so, got it! 🤩 2y

JessieKB @dabbe Yes that one!! 2y

Cuilin @JessieKB looks good 2y

AnnR I'll be listening to A Christmas Carol this year, too. There some awesome audio options out there. 🙂 1y
