Right now I'm reading the Wagons West series. I've only read the first 2 books of this 24 book series. It's Wagon Train fiction and I sort of view it as the soap operas of frontier fiction. There is some history but most of it is viewed through the lives of the people on the wagon train. I read the first half of the series in high school and they are out of print now but my hubby tracked them all down and so I decided to reread the first half and read for the first time the second half.
I've also enjoyed Philippa Gregory's Tudor books, James Alexander Thom's book Follow the River, Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, and others.
