Thanks for giving nonfiction literature some much-needed, Sunday morning love filled with sun🔆 That's the way to go ✅ Interesting vampire aesthetics as make-up
Very cool list of books, thank you very much! I will look for it. In turn, I want to say that the books of economist Ha-Joon Chang "Bad Samaritans" and "Economics on a Plate" were a pleasant discovery for me among non-fiction books. The book "Fundamentals. 10 keys to reality" by Nobel laureate Frank Wilchek is interesting. I also bought the book "Memoirs" by Carl Gustav Mannerheim. As for our lives, today the Russian army hit a children's park with a Shahed-type drone... many houses around have broken windows. Therefore, Eva Thompson's book "The Troubadours of the Empire. The Russian Empire and Colonialism" deserves attention. Thanks for your interesting video! Greetings from Ukraine, which is still holding on!
Currently reading Say Nothing! I highly recommend the audiobook, it's very engaging. I had to read the physical book along with the audio in the beginning because of the accent of the narrator 😅 but it breathes so much life into the text!
The best nonfiction books to me are those where I nearly don't realize that I read nonfiction. A combination of biography and nature writing therefore always works well and I'm going to take a closer look on "The Flow." Have you read "The Outrun" by Amy Liptrop? That one was amazing with beautiful writing.
Say Nothing was great. I don't read a lot of nonfiction but two good books are The Demon of Unrest about the early days of the American civil war, and The Wide Wide Sea about Captain Cook's third and final voyage. Thanks for your list - Notes on a Silencing is now on my tbr.
I've heard that The Salt Path is really good. I'm afraid it would be a difficult read, so I haven't read it yet. I have Say Nothing on my tbr for this year too. I just finished The Radium Girls and it was excellent. I do need a little bit of a reprieve before I read Say Nothing. I also want to reread a couple of my WWII memoirs because it's been a long time since I read them: Night by Elie Wiesel and In My Hands: Memoirs of a Holocaust Rescuer by Irene Gut Opdyke. I just got The Backyard Bird Chronicles by Amy Tan from the library and I'm looking forward to it.
I have read Say Nothing as part of an in person bookclub. It is an interesting book about an important time with lots of detail, but I don't really relate when people say it's an all-time favorite book. For me, it was a very dry nonfiction read. While it is interesting and you definitely will learn a lot, reading it did feel like an assignment. I'll be interested to hear when you think.
I read so little nonfiction and I always want to change that. My self challenge is at least one lol It may end up being Jeanette McCurdy's book, or maybe Britney Spears, because I've very curious about them, but I'm interested in some of the ones you mentioned too - Jane Austen at Home in particular! Someone I follow on Goodreads spent last year reading witchy non-fiction though and I saved a bunch of those to my TBR cause they seemed really fun and interesting and I am in my witchy era right now lmao
Notes on a Silencing I gave 4.5/5. There were huge sections I flew through. Definitely sad and frustrating. I gave the same rating to Say Nothing - both powerful stories. Eiger Dreams I read over 10 years ago now!😵I feel the same way about those kind of books - it's fascinating to see people pushing themselves, but I don't want to go on a mountaineering expedition. -Becks
Ohhhh If you love books and stories about people climbing mountains, I would recommend Sir Edmund Hillary’s View from the summit about being the first men ( along with his sherpa) who climbed the Everest! I loved it. I also have a fascination with people who climb ( no idea why) but especially Mount Everest!
Could not put The Salt Path down, pages just flew by easily. Need to find the sequel too. Jane Austen at Home drags a bit; I liked Lucy Worsley's Agatha Christie biography better.
Thanks Alice, I don't read enough non-stop fiction but want to. Lucy Worsley has a bk. about Agatha Christie also. I watch her on PBS, a bit wierd, but good historically. Wrote down some of what you suggested. Have a great week. Has been below zero here many times the past 2 wks😑 (S.E. Michigan, U.S. How about Norway??
We’re having that terrible weather where it’s switches between below freezing and not - so it snows, then it gets milder and it melts, it freezes, it rains then freezes, then snows on top of it 😂 It’s very interesting to walk around, I’ll say that 😂
The Salt Path is amazing! It's so inspiring
Say Nothing is amazing. Also the drama series based on it.
I love Lucy Worsley! I think she is great! 😊
Yay! 🥰❤️
Loved the salt path and I have the next two to read and the Jane Austen at home on my shelf

The Flow sounds good!

This is a very intriguing list. I want to read all of these! I read Lab Girl, which I liked a lot, but didn’t know she had written more.
🥰❤️

I want to continue reading non-fiction throughout the year, but since I'm not a huge non-fiction sometimes I forget to prioritize it.
I’m reading The Flow right now. It’s one of those books that I find quite dense, but I want to read every word because it’s so interesting.
Oooh love that! 😍

Oooh witchy era is fantastic! 🥰 I haven’t read the Britney one, but McCurdy’s book was really interesting ❤️
@@TheBookCastle I've had the audiobook for a while now and heard great things! I'm looking forward to it :)

I’ve heard of that one but not read it yet! It looks so good 😍
Oh god, The Uninhabitable Earth is the only book to ever give me a panic attack lmao. I loved it but that was a tough read for sure.
Have read The Invention of Nature and The Salt Path and Say Nothing probably because you mentioned then ?? 🤔
🥰❤️
Could not put The Salt Path down, pages just flew by easily. Need to find the sequel too. Jane Austen at Home drags a bit; I liked Lucy Worsley's Agatha Christie biography better.
The Agatha Christie one looks great!
I really liked The Salt Path but not the sequel to it.
Who does not love Lucy Worsley?!😮😅
I think the reason you've been seeing this book a lot is because this year is 250 years since Jane Austen was born.
