  1. Good luck with this! I love both of the Charles Palliser books, particularly The Quincunx, and I really enjoyed The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle too. I'm also taking part in this challenge at the Prehistoric level, but haven't made a list of books for it.

    1. Thank you. I'm hoping to get to those books soon. I can't help myself :-) I have to make a list although it will change over the course of the year!
