The King's Favorite: A Novel of Nell Gwynn and Charles II, by Susan Holloway Scott. Historical fiction about the just-named historical figures; and since I love anything that has to do with Charles II (see my review of Forever Amber), I thought this would be right up my alley.
Belle Weather: Mostly Sunny With a Chance of Hissy Fits, by Celia Rivenbark. Humor essays; reviewed here yesterday.
The Dark Lantern, by Gerri Brightwell. Historical fiction set in Victorian England, told through the eyes of a servant whose mother was a murderer.
The Book of Unholy Mischief, by Elle Newmark. I added this to my TBR pile on LibraryThing at the beginning of the week, but when I sat down to write this post I couldn't, for the life of me, remember what it was about. And there's no description of the book on Amazon, because it won't be out until December. Maybe I requested an ARC of this book? I must have Altzeimers. At age 25.
Cover the Mirrors, by Faye Booth. More Victorian England, about spiritualism. Sounds quirky and off-the-wall.
In the meantime, I'm reading Company of Liars, by Karen Maitland. I'm only about 150 pages into it and really liking it, so I'll get a review posted as soon as I can.
