The “Best Historical Fiction” category went missing last year for “The Very Best!” Book Awards, but it’s back and there were many good titles produced in this genre. Here are five of the best that were reviewed here at TMR:
- Exile Blues by Douglas Gary Freeman (Baraka Books)
- A Roll of the Bones by Trudy J. Morgan-Cole (Breakwater Books)
- Two Crows Sorrow by Laura Churchill Duke (Moose House Publications)
- The Forgotten Home Child by Genevieve Graham (Simon & Schuster Canada)
- The Liars by Ida Linehan Young (Flanker Press)
Of the above five titles, three will be awarded either gold, silver, or bronze award early in September 2020. The entire longlist can be seen here: https://miramichireader.ca/very-best-book-awards/
