#NonFicNov wk 5 Thanks for sharing your books!

 

Week 5: (Nov. 26 to 30) – New to My TBR (Katie @ Doing Dewey): It’s been a month full of amazing nonfiction books! Which ones have made it onto your TBR? Be sure to link back to the original blogger who posted about that book

 

1. Here is my list of YOUR books….that I want to read (TBR).
   
2. It’s important to read outside of your experience,
3. …outside of your time,
4. …outside of your comfort zones.
5. That is the most important take-away  #NonFicNov!

 

1. I’ve sifted through 73 posts and
2. …always found 2 books I’d like...
3. …be it about:
4. …theatre, mental health, race, parenting and play, politics
5. …memoir, foodie, travel, basic income, health issues, women’s rights
6. …US First ladies, true crime (…not my comfort zone!)
7. …essayism, perfect storms, tsunami’s, or inspirational books
8. …like Educated, Tools of the Titans, In praise of Slow,
9. …Daring Greatly
10. …Living alone and Liking it and
11. …C. Strayed’s Wild.
