Have you read any of the above nonfiction books? If so, let me know which books you've read from the above list and what you thought about the book(s) you read in the comment section below!!
That's a very interesting list. Good luck with reading them all. I don't read a lot of nonfiction and I haven't actually read any of these, but of course I have read about most of them. Moreover, I don't really participate in "designated reading" months. I tend to just read whatever grabs my interest at the moment.
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I will have fun reading the above books... I am hoping to read one or two of them this month and read the rest of them over time. Most of the time, I'm like you in that "I tend to read whatever grabs my interest at the moment" as many times even the best intentions of reading certain books for themed events goes awry.
DeleteGreat list. I have only read Barack Obama's book but that is great.
ReplyDeleteI have heard wonderful things about Barack Obama's book, so look forward to reading it! I am glad you enjoyed his book. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it.
