I have decided to pick artbooks from my collection this year, so here goes: Time - The Art of Mr Peabody and Sherman Movement - The Art of Howl's Moving Castle Buzz - The Art of Bee Movie Discovery - The Art of Missing Link (if I can find a copy of it in time) or The Art of How to Train Your Dragon 3 I will rewatch the corresponding movies too, I think.
My plans are: Time - The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England Movement - Love, Lucy by Lucille Ball (moving pictures) Discovery - The Mercury 13 by Martha Ackmann (the DISCOVERY that women are just as good or even better for spaceflight) Buzz - No Dream Is Too High by Apollo 11 astronaut BUZZ Aldrin
Current plans are: Time - Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari Movement - A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson Discovery - The Invention of Nature by Andrea Wulf Buzz - A World without Bees by Alison Benjamin and Brian McCallum Discovery is the one that might change
What a wonderful list! You got me with the Transylvania mention on the movement book. I had a feeling you'd recommend some great bee books! You made me add way too many books to my list. I hear you about hometown. I found myself fascinated by Toronto books and neighbourhoods or books set here. So excited for November!
I'm really excited for Nonfiction November this year--The Keys of Egypt sounds so interesting! I've given myself a book for each prompt this year: How to be a Tudor by Ruth Goodman for Time; Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde for Movement; The Covent Garden Ladies by Hallie Rubenhold for Buzz; and The Lost Gardens of Heligan by Tim Smit for Discovery.
Time: The Checklist Manifesto - Atul Gawande. Movement: Fighting for Space Two Pilots and Their Historic Battle for Female Spaceflight - Amy Shira Teitel. Discovery: Exponential Living - Sheri Riley (personal discovery). Buzz: No Dream is Too High - Buzz Aldrin. Great prompts. Looking forward to participating.
Great list of books. The baseball book looks especially interesting to me. I love baseball books, history and biography. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Being a list maker, I really want to read The Checklist. And I love the idea of listing the obvious and mundane to free up brain space. I try to read a non fiction each Friday night and the one I’m reading for Victober fills the time prompt nicely. It’s What Jane Austen Ate and Charles Dickens Knew. I’m going to try and find one more at least to read for one of the other prompts. Great recommendations!
I had made it a goal this year to read two nonfiction books per month, so for this I'm planning to read four, one for each prompt - works out well for me! My TBR is: TIME: A Black Women's History of the United States by Daina Ramey Berry MOVEMENT: Flâneuse: Women Walk the City in Paris, New York, Tokyo, Venice, and London by Lauren Elkin BUZZ: (had this picked out before this video, I swear!!) Buzz: The Nature and Necessity of Bees by Thor Hanson DISCOVERY: Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teaching of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer
Some Australian ones that are recent releases and cover the topics Time - Deep Time Dreaming: : Uncovering Ancient Australia by Billy Griffin (it won a number of Australian awards in 2019) Movement - The Golden Maze, A Biography of Prague by Richard Fidler (2020) Discovery - Australian Code Breakers: Our top-secret war with the Kaiser's Reich by James Phelps (2020) Buzz - The Wasp and The Orchid: The remarkable life of Australian Naturalist Edith Coleman by Danielle Clode (2018)
If you like adventure I recommend, Ballad of The Whisky Robber. You will not regret it. It’s an amazing story but it also is Historical since it happens in Budapest.
Current Plans: Time: The End of Your Life BookClub (end of life discussion) Movement: The Great Gold Swindle of Lubec, Maine (charlatans moving in and out of a community, fleecing it of money as they go) Discovery: Lucy's Legacy (Discovery of human origins) Buzz: Moonbound (graphic novel about the space race in the US, specifically the moon landing)
so excited for this readathon! prospective picks are Time Travel: A History (Time obvs), Hood Feminism (Movement), The Black Cabinet (Discovery), and Caste (Buzz)
I plan on reading: Time: Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil Movement: The Eighty Dollar Champion (About a Show Jumper) Buzz: The Five (So many people have hyped this book up!) Discovery: Prairie Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Inglalls Wilder. Excited to learn more about her that isn't watered down for a younger person. How Music got Free sounds interesting. May have to pick it up for my cousin, it sounds right up her alley.
I'm so excited for this!! My list is: Time: Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker Movement: The Man Who Loved China - The Fantastic Story of the Eccentric Scientist Who Unlocked the Mysteries of the Middle Kingdom by Simon Winchester & Packing for Mars by Mary Roach Discovery: Unthinkable - An Extraordinary Journey Through the World's Strangest Brains by Helen Thomson Buzz: Maybe you Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb (Obviously SKOPASKPOA :D)
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Secondhand Time - I read it earlier this year and I’m still not really sure what I think about it! Also Driving While Black sounds amazing!
This is so exciting! My plans are: Time: Soonish- future technology stuffs. Movement: (this was a tricky one but here we go) Your Brain Needs a Hug- I look at it as a transition into better mental health. Buzz: The Princess Diarist- Star Wars is a popular movie Discovery: No Visible Bruises- deeper dive into domestic violence and I’m probably going to discover/learn a lot of new things. So happy this is happening, this readathon always teaches me something new and exciting!
Why We Sleep is really good. Must actually follow some of its recommendations one day! Secondhand Time is good, but a bit of a trawl. Diary of a Young Naturalist is excellent! I have a copy of The Checklist Manifesto and Buzz to read at some point!
Great recs!!! I shopped my bookshelves for this, so I'll be reading: Time - 46 Days by Brew Davis (the author's wife ran the entire Appalachian Trail in 46 days!) Movement - Captured Motion by Harriet Whitney Frishmuth (a beautiful art book about sculpture) Discovery - Black Livingstone by Pagan Kennedy (the story of an African American missionary in the Congo beginning in 1890) Buzz - Buzz by Thor Hanson (took this one literally! it's about native, wild bees)
Can't wait to hear your thoughts on Secondhand Time. I've had it on my Kindle for awhile but haven't read it yet. I suggested my book club do Non Fiction November after your last video about it and now we're going to read either Pandora's Lab (for both discovery and time) or Babel: Around the World in Twenty Languages. I'm really excited!
Ugh Olive stop it with the great recs my TBR can’t take it 😩 How Music Got Free is one of my maybes for this year but after hearing your thoughts I might bump it up the list. I’m also reading Avoid the Day!! I bought it on impulse a couple of months ago and you can imagine how pleased I was when the prompts were announced and Movement was one of them, haha. I’m so excited, I can’t wait to film my TBR! Great video as always!
Great recommendations and an exciting TBR! I'm so excited for this readathon, I've barely read any non-fiction this year when last year it was almost half of my reading! I'm also hoping to pick up one of Svetlana Alexeivich's oral histories, since I have two or three on my shelves, maybe I'll do the Unwomanly Face of War.
I do read a lot of non fiction, so I just ordered "This is Where you Belong" I've lived in 3 different states just in the past 4 years. And 4 states in my lifetime. Not to mention different cities. I'm looking forward to reading it!
My TBR: Time: Turn Right at Macau Picchu-this has been on my Travel TBR since it came out. I love history+travel. Movement: Neither Here Nor There-I love Bill Bryson travel stories. He is so funny as he travels across countries and continents. Buzz: The Hot Zone: an outbreak true story by Richard Preston, another favorite author. Discovery: To Shake the Sleeping Self- a self-discovery story of a man who cycles from Oregon to Patagonia.
This will be my first time participating! Exciting! My plan is to start with a book I have on my TBR since it came out, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontent by Isabel Wilkerson and hopefully add a few more on the way 😉
Always enjoy your recommendations! “Driving While Black” is at the top of my list for November and am looking forward to watching the PBS program inspired by the author, Gretchen Sorin, tonight. Also looking forward to the group read of “The Yellow House” since it is on my TBR list. Also, very proud that The Christian Science Monitor has picked up your book reviews, Olive!
I'm really looking forward to the PBS program as well! I'm going to watch it as soon as I'm done with the book. And thank you - I continue to be very flattered that the Monitor wants to run my work!
The only book I've decided on so far for November is SUNNY DAYS by David Kamp about the revolution in children's television. I have a stack of others to move on to when I'm finished with that.
I've already got my TBR picked out (tried to choose some books on my physical TBR), but you tempt me so much with Buzz by Thor Hanson! I just finished The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating, and it has made me so in the mood for more nature writing. If I can squeeze it in, I might try to read it anyway!
Yay I’m super excited for non fiction November! I’m planning on at least reading The Skin Were In and then if I have time I want to read A Knock On the Door and The Diet for a Hot Planet.
You read my mind! Your Channel is one of my favorite on RUclips Because of the nonfiction choices you read and mention. and yaaay, you've made a list of similar contents. I am over the moon now 😁. Love from Iraq ❤
Just wanted to add that I'm participating in non-fiction November and have posted a video with my TBR. I plan to be as active as possible as nonfiction Is My Jam as well. Aloha
@@matdrawsreads I haven't started Bats yet. I'm liking Fearful Majesty so far. It started with the Rurik Empire in 862 & I'm just now getting to Ivan's part. I'm already thinking of doing a reread so I can take notes & do some highlighting.
Oooh, this is such a cool initiative; I do tend to read less non-fiction so this would be great to help with that. I gravitate towards autobiographies so I'll probably look for one of those!
Oh so mine are Time: Young Hitler: Making of the Fuhrer (yes I know, quite dark. But morbid curiosity compels me.) For me, it’s about a dark *time* in history. Movement: The Art behind Disney, since Disney basically started an animation *movement* in the West. Buzz: Caesar by Adrian Goldsworth, since the Caesar often has a lot of *buzz* surrounding them lol Discovery: Travellers during the Third Reich. A book about ordinary random tourists, well, travelling through Germany during the Nazis rise to power and their *discoveries* during those travels. I’m an aspiring WWII history buff I guess 🤷🏼♀️🤣
I’ve got around three books picked and they centre around one of my favourite eras which is Victorian and I also plan on some mental health non fiction books
It's so inspiring ! I think I'll pick up some of your recomendations ( Champollion !) For my own Non-Fiction November, I'm planning to read Midnight in Chernobyl by Adam Higginbotham for the TIME challenge. For the Movement, I have "L'odyssée de l'Endurance" by Sir Ernest Shackelton, for BUZZ "A promised land" by Barack Obama and for DISCOVERY "The far traveler, voyages of a Viking Woman" by Nancy Mary Brown which sounds so interesting !
Not a new subscriber but the first time commenting. How do you get to have those books behind arranged so colorfully? Did you have to follow a certain criteria? thanks and cheers!
I’m and I”ll be reading ‚Invisible women’ Caroline Criado Perez (incredibly insightful!), ‚Pink brain, blue brain’ by Lise Eliot and ‚Walking London’ by Andrew Duncan - Im going to read = take walks in London on streetview:) (my idea for travelling in Covid times).
Based on your recommendation, I read "How Music Got Free" with my music-specific bookclub. It was fascinating. It made us really think about the product of music.
I created the nonfiction book tag video as part of my nonfiction month - and hope to do a “favorite nonfiction book” one soon. Happy reading! ruclips.net/video/ikymT1YmjoE/видео.html
Dara is from N.Ireland . He’s done some naturalist pieces for local television. His book was also book of the week on BBC Radio 4. Look up the BBC Sounds app. He reads it himself. 📖☘️👋☕️📚🦋😷🤩
Last year there was a list of prompts for each day of Nonfiction November, does anyone know where I can find that? Looking forward to it, I adore memoirs and personal growth nonfiction.
3 out of the 5 books I read for my September TBR were non fiction and I haven’t finished any of them... it actually turned into a reading slump so I don’t how well I get along with non fiction 🤷🏻♀️
@@iseriver3982 I’m curious, what di you consider nonfiction “crap”? Cause the ones I tried to read were recommended by this and other non fiction channels.
@@misscindypalacio they're obviously still crap for you. I enjoy nonfiction far more than fiction, and I haven't really cared to read any of the books mentioned in this video.
Maybe I'll do the opposite. I haven't read a novel in a long time. I've been reading mostly academic nonfiction books on emotionally heavy topics in the last few years. I could use a break with either a lighter nonfiction or light, but not sickeningly sweet or embarrassing.
I rarely read nonfiction, but I am doing nonfiction November this year. All the themes will be rolled into one read: Obama's memoir. Time because it covers his time in politics. Movement for the 2008 election. Buzz because it's a big buzz book. Discovery because it shows the background of his rise in politics.
This is my favorite read a thon of the year!
Same!
SAME! I’ve been waiting basically since December 2019 😂
I Love non-fiction so much
I have decided to pick artbooks from my collection this year, so here goes:
Time - The Art of Mr Peabody and Sherman
Movement - The Art of Howl's Moving Castle
Buzz - The Art of Bee Movie
Discovery - The Art of Missing Link (if I can find a copy of it in time) or The Art of How to Train Your Dragon 3
I will rewatch the corresponding movies too, I think.
My plans are:
Time - The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England
Movement - Love, Lucy by Lucille Ball (moving pictures)
Discovery - The Mercury 13 by Martha Ackmann (the DISCOVERY that women are just as good or even better for spaceflight)
Buzz - No Dream Is Too High by Apollo 11 astronaut BUZZ Aldrin
I love that you were able to use Buzz Aldrin as the connection to the last prompt!
Current plans are:
Time - Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari
Movement - A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson
Discovery - The Invention of Nature by Andrea Wulf
Buzz - A World without Bees by Alison Benjamin and Brian McCallum
Discovery is the one that might change
Ohhh this list is awesome! I literally want to read all of these but I don’t think it will happen this year 😂
The invention of nature is easily the best book in your tbr.
I'm really intrigued by Checklist. I'll have to check it out.
I'll be reading Hawking's history of time, among others.
The last three months of the BookTube year are truly so spectacular. 😄🥂🌟
