Past non-fiction books I've read. Recent: A few books about Abe Lincoln. Audio book for Chris Broad's "Abroad in Japan." I don't often read these books because at some point I just put the book down and not get back to it. It's a "me problem". Other booktuber's I follow do have interesting reviews on the books they've read. Great content. You even had a change of clothes for the other channel .
@@Tetsujin-28 I’m curious about Abroad in Japan since I’ve been watching Chris’ channel for years. And different videos take more or less time to edit so I often have videos from different days posted on the same day. 😅
I'm not a huge non-fiction reader but I do occasionally pick one up. The most recent one I read was Roxanne Gay's Hunger which was a 5 star read. I enjoy non-fiction it's just the ones I go for are typically "heavier" reads so I space them out just to not overwhelm myself.
@@skylarweiss Just looked up Hunger and that’s definitely a “heavier” book. I read Brain on Fire by Susannah Catalan last year and that was a 5⭐️ for me. It’s heavier but, not too bad.
I think it’s so cool you buddy read with your brother!! On Getting Out of Bed sounds…interesting. 😅 Shocked to hear the author say one thing and then say don’t do that thing! The last nonfiction “book” I read was Embrace Your Size and that was two years ago 🙈🙈🙈
@@LauraAGrace I really love that I can read books alongside my dad and brother. It doesn’t happen often but, when it does, it’s some of the best reading experiences I’ve had. On Getting Out of Bed was just a confusing mess. I really don’t understand it. And it’s okay not to read much non-fiction. Fiction is great!! 💕
I love hearing the cast talking about The Princess Bride, I had no idea there was a book of that! I love A Short History of Nearly Everything, they should give it to school kids.
Hmm, I read *On Getting Out of Bed* and didn't feel like it was contradictory at all. Also, I think it's worth keeping in mind that it is a Christian book, written by a Christian for other Christians, and published by a Christian company. Perhaps what you perceived as "contradiction" is what I perceived as nuance, and finding a balance.
@@RachelB.BookReferences This is very true! As someone who is not Christian I’m sure there were many things that I didn’t understand or grasp the way a Christian would. That’s why books are so amazing. People can have completely different experiences with the same book and that’s beautiful. 💕
Recently, I read born a crime, I’m glad my mom died, the polygamist daughter, and counting the cost. I’ve also just learned about a series called 24 hours and it describes 24 hours in a particular time Period and place. It sounds really cool. I can’t wait to check it out.
@@Maeve_Ever_Books if you meant me, the list is far too long. One such book that just came up for sale recently on eBay at a reasonable price is "Caldron cookery;: An authentic guide for coven connoisseurs" by Marcello Truzzi, which he purported to be uncovered old world witchcraft spells. Very interesting and often funny. I have 5 copies but want them all.
@@Maeve_Ever_BooksI really enjoyed Driven to Distraction about ADHD and then I liked The Devil in the White City so definitely more narrative historical nonfiction and then about high interest areas for my life
Lots of interesting titles. The one about depressions sounds infuriating though, how did that pass through publishing..? And I’m the same on religion. I haven’t gotten into nonfiction that much yet, the one ones I’ve read this year is Sociopath by Patric Gagne (memoir) and The Wager by David Grann. Would like to incorporate more into my reading though. But then I want more of everything so 😂
@@ellenmadebookclub I’ve been trying to read a little more of everything too! It’s nice to have a variety of types of books. I have The Wager on my list of books I want to try in the future. I’ve only heard good things.
Interesting... I know I left a comment on this video like a week ago... And yet it's not here...I also subscribed to your channel but it says I'm not subscribed... 🤔 So confused... Anyways I'm leaving another comment and will be suscibing again. Hope it takes this time. 😂
I have a question. How do you find your Non-fiction to read? I have had success with most of the nonfiction I have read, but usually, the book just kinda falls into my lap. Trying to search the nonfiction in the store feels too overwhelming. Do you have any tips?
@@Onceglassy Most of my non-fiction I just picked up when browsing my used bookstores and the rest were recommendations. I think my only tips for finding good books for a specific topic would be Google. I’ve searched “best non-fiction about…” and found some really good ones that way as well.
th-cam.com/video/IB9O3HyK0h4/w-d-xo.html Just started reading "Napoleon: Bisexual Emperor" because I found it at an estate for a dollar. I really have no interest in either subject presented within but it's an interesting topic, especially for 1973 when it was published, so I said what the hell.
@@Maeve_Ever_BooksI never even fathomed that such a book existed. That's why thrift stores and estate sales are great because you are at the mercy of the dead and discarded for your book choices.
All the Living and the Dead sounds right up my alley!!! A lot of great reads in here 😊

@@saraihernandez7951 I really want to read Born a Crime. I haven’t heard of 24 Hours but, that sounds fantastic!! Definitely adding it to my list!
@@Maeve_Ever_Books I recommend listening to born a crime on audio. He narrates it himself and it’s really good.
I need to read more nonfiction for sure. I tend to prefer narrative nonfiction though and steer clear of self help
@@pjsandpages92 I hear you. Plus I'm beyond help at this point.
