Nonfiction November 2018 - week 1

Nonfiction November is back! I love participating, and if you want to too, you can find more information here. Each week there is a new nonfiction post prompt. This week, it's a look back.

Week 1: Your Year in Nonfiction Take a look back at your year of nonfiction and reflect on the following questions – What was your favorite nonfiction read of the year? Do you have a particular topic you’ve been attracted to more this year? What nonfiction book have you recommended the most? What are you hoping to get out of participating in Nonfiction November?

So far this year, I've read 150 books, 72 of which have been nonfiction: 54 biography and memoir and 18 straight nonfiction (decorating, cookbooks, history, etc.).

This year has been a fabulous year for my favorite flavor of nonfiction: presidents, first ladies, first families, and the White House. Here are my ten favorite books from that genre, all read this year (my very favorites are in the top row):

 

 

 

 

 

I'm always looking for more titles for my TBR, and I just love seeing what brand of nonfiction others are interested in. Leave me a comment about your year in nonfiction.
