It’s time to wrap up Nonfiction November and this week’s topic is hosted by Lory at Emerald City Book Review: 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!
I haven’t had a chance to read as many nonfiction books as I would have liked – actually I’m still trying to finish one! But, my TBR list has definitely gotten longer. Here are just a few of the books that I’ve added to my list.
The Radium Girls by Kate Moore via Kim at Time 2 Read
Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann via Kim at Sophisticated Dorkiness
Option B by Sheryl Sandberg via Stacey at Unruly Reader
The Getaway Car by Ann Patchett via Sarah at Sarah’s Bookshelves
Code Girls by Liza Mundy via Susie at Novel Visits
My Beloved World by Sonia Sotomayor via CurlyGeek at The Book Stop
Bellevue by David Oshinsky via JoAnn at Lakeside Musing
I’ve really enjoyed participating in this event. Got to “meet” new book bloggers, read some great book reviews and got excited about reading nonfiction. Thank you to the hosts:

How about you, did you also add a lot of new nonfiction books to your wishlist?
Glad you’re planning to read The Getaway Car! It’s so short…you can knock it out in a couple hours!
Ooooo! So excited to see that one of my favorites made your list! Looks like some great reading ahead…
Definitely added a few to my list! BTW, “The Getaway Car” also appears in her collection of essays The Story of a Happy Marriage, if that’s easier to find. It’s a terrific piece!
So many of those are on my wish list, too. I loved My Beloved World and Bellevue was also very good.
As Buried in Print mentioned above, “The Getaway Car” is included in Patchett’s book of essays. I’d recommend the entire book (This is the Story of a Happy Marriage)… it was a favorite a few years ago.
The only one I’ve read is The Code Girls which had some fascinating details about the recruitment of young women to the Navy and Army code-breaking teams. I really enjoyed it. Will have to look at some of the other titles you mention. 🙂
I am glad you enjoyed Nonfiction month! Code Girls is on my wish list and Radium Girls on my TBR pile. Both sound so good!
