Non-Fiction November: Week 1

Throughout the month of November, bloggers 

Heather (Based on a True Story), 

Frances (Volatile Reader), 

Rebekah (She Seeks Nonfiction), and 

Deb (Reader Buzz) invite us to celebrate Nonfiction November with them.

I always look forward to NonFiction November, even though I'm not the best at participating.  There are so many nonfiction books on my TBR, and I have a wide variety of things I enjoy reading about.

1.  What are the best nonfiction books you've read this year?

It's hard to pick just a few that I've loved, but these five I'd recommend to anyone looking for a nonfiction book they will enjoy.

2. Do you have a topic you read about a lot?

Several topics are ones that I revisit often:

• the Royal Family
• sports: basketball, golf
• pop culture - television shows
• political/presidential memoirs
• true crime

3.  Is there a topic you want to read more about?

There are so many different things I am interested in.  If I read a fiction book, and I don't know much about the topic,  my curiosity is piqued. I love learning about people and events in history; there are so many things I don't know about -and want to know about.

4.  What do you hope to get out of participating at NonFiction November?

I love adding to my TBR.  It's so fun to see what everyone else is reading and enjoying. And I like connecting with other readers who also enjoy a good nonfiction book.
