In a continuation of our discussion on WW2 novels, this week we're talking about historical fiction as a genre (and the books that aren't set during WW2). Emily is a fan of the genre, but Kenzie's more a skeptic. Together they talk about what they like about the genre, why it's so popular, and what makes them hesitant to pick up a historical fiction novel.

As always, please tell us your favorite HF novels, so we can read them! Find us on twitter @shelf_involved.
