Books in the queue.
It’s #NonFicNov month: we’re encouraged to read non-fiction (or analyze past non-fiction reads). To ease the way, Shelf Aware, Doing Dewey, Julz Reads, and What’s Nonfiction have some cool weekly prompts to ponder.
This week we round-up all the wonderful book recommendations that we picked up in November from fellow #NonFicNov bloggers.
Full Disclosure: I really don’t read much of non-fiction. But that’s something I want to correct during this Non-Fiction November challenge (hosted HERE and HERE). Below are the top 10 Non-Fiction Books from my TBR pile. Wish me luck!
1] Talking to Strangers by Malcolm Gladwell
I’ve been a huge fan of Gladwell since the Outliers days. So is definitely up: “Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don’t know. And because we don’t know how to talk to strangers, we are inviting conflict and misunderstanding in ways that have a profound effect on our lives and our world.“
Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl. Every Tuesday, you pick ten books on that week’s topic.
This week’s topic is “Cover Freebie“, i.e. pick any ten book covers on any theme that comes to mind. I have decided to go with the covers of the top ten books languishing on my to-be-read pile. (Notice that I make no promises when I’ll finish reading these … )
