Link to the host for this month’s celebration of reading nonfiction:
Challenge: Read NONFICTION in the month of NOVEMBER #NonfictionNovember #NonFicNov2023 #NonFicNov
Week FIVE: What books I’ve added to my NonFiction shelf. [on gr]
I didn’t add as many as I thought I did! So that means I get the pleasure of going through everyone’s post with a more dedicated eye to putting titles on my tbr. Thanks Everyone!
I did clip the latest additions to my tbr (I thought I had added a few from Rebekah’s Palestine list? I will!) and a few are from this month’s #NonFicNov activity: (an obvious pic of how my interests are all over the place.)
I am interested in learning more about the Gaza strip to understand more what is happening there. I appreciate the books that explore the charged American topics such as Gun Control and Right vs Left. After having read The Many Lives of Mama Love by Lara Love Hardin, I am eager to read the book that she wrote with Anthony Ray Hinton about his being innocent and in prison for 30+ years, The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row.
And I can’t forget to share that I’m reading Ross Gay’s first of the Delightful series and have the next 2 ready to go:
PLUS! ***newsflash*** Apparently one of the TOB Long List books is narrative NonFiction! So I will hopefully be reading this soon. (I’m loving all the TOB books so far...)
The NonFiction book I’m currently enjoying is Dinners with Ruth by Nina Totenberg, all about her friendship with Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Lots of good history in this, and feminine power. The TOB book I’ve got going FEELS like nonfiction, but they are calling it a novel. DO check out Dayswork by Jennifer Habel and her husband Chris Bachelder – about literary history, marriage, and all sorts of odd/fun flotsam and jetsam. Lots of goodness about Melville and Hawthorne; I’m 30% in.
