I’ve had a very good nonfiction reading year. Back before I got into blogging and started writing and trying to publish my novel, I read mostly nonfiction. But, my 13 years of an hour each way in the car to work 5 days a week meant I got through a lot of books on audio. Nonfiction wasn’t always available and, no matter what, anything gets boring with that much exposure. I’m a very eclectic reader, too. Just no sci fi or fantasy. The titles below, except for the royal books (except for the Duke of Kent’s boring memoir) I did not review. Like series books, I choose not to normally review royal books. Most are pretty vapid, but this year had some more serious ones. Still, I don’t want hate-bots on my tail for being honest, so I’m skipping reviewing books about a certain new monarch’s other daughter-in-law. Enough said.
My reviews are linked below the photo collage of book covers.

Well darn — I wish you did review the royal books! But I get that you never can tell these days. Just this morning I was scrolling through Instagram and learned my account was disabled. What the heck?! Oh well. One less internet distraction.

I don’t know what all will go on with Instagram now. I follow book people & anti-Markle people and a few others.

Looks like a great selection of books. When you said, you didn’t review the books about royals, I realised I rarely review any of my nonfiction. Mostly because I often read very specialised nonfiction, which most readers are not interested in.

Dervla Murphy! Love her. I still haven’t read Sugar and Slate – I’ll have to do it for next year’s Welsh reading month: the shame!

It was well worth it! I’m hoping to read Dervla’s book that includes her trip through Malawi next year. She was through Malawi when I was living there (I knew nothing about her then though)

Wow you have read a lot of books about the Royals. You have done a masterclass – but I am sure there is much more to read and learnt.
Nice meeting you as part of nonfictionnovember.
