    Mary Shelley is buried about one mile away from me, I’ve been to her grave a couple of times. We had the Museum of the moon art installation at the church where she’s buried last year. Was so eerie at midnight there.

    ooooh great choices!!!! Welcome to your first Nonfiction November! I'm so happy you are participating. I think the essence of what you said is why Nonfiction November exists, most people don't reach out for it, and it's there and somewhat intimidating, and yet once people get into it, they find they love it!

    I love watching your videos and your Library very much makes my bookworm heart happy! I'm participating in six readathons this month though two are week long so I have quite the overly ambitious TBR to say the least! I have participated in Nonfiction November for at least the last three years and it has really helped me to fall in love with reading a variety of Nonfiction. There was a time when the only Nonfiction I would read was for class and Nonfiction November has really helped me to open my eyes to find what interests me which usually involves Libraries, Bookworms, Nature Photography and Traveling. I'm also participating in Believeathon for the first time (just put my TBR together last night...). I hope you have an amazing reading month, best of luck with your writing as well as school work and I love that mug!

LOL, as for my name, Laume - both vowels are sounded, like "loud", but swap the d out for an m, and the e is silent. I'd love to participate in readathons this month but I'm still trying to finish up October books, a bunch of library e-books are about to arrive, plus a couple books I set aside to read specifically in November, so maybe I should take a breather on adding anything else. Whew. Fingers crossed. (I'm not very good at that.)

It’s about this girl who starts seeing like classic book characters in her world. Anne of Green Gables and Alice from Wonderland. Then she finds out that she and her bff Oscar are Bookwanderers and it’s all really good. There’s a HUGE HUGE HUGE plot twist that just made my mouth drop, and she also lives in her parents bookshop which I’m totes jealous abouttttt! Well I hope u read it.
