So what’s the damage? I’ve added a few books to the TBR stack –
Forty Autumns: A Family’s Story of Courage and Survival on Both Sides of the Berlin Wall by Nina Willner – Julz Reads
Stacie left me a bunch of memoir suggestions after noting that I was enjoying The Bright Hour by Nina Riggs. I’ll work through the list but first cabs off the rank will be: A Mother’s Reckoning: Life in the Aftermath of the Columbine Tragedy by Sue Klebold; Everything Happens for a Reason: And Other Lies I’ve Loved by Kate Bowler; and Grief Works: Stories of Life, Death, and Surviving by Julia Samuel.
Hearing Maud by Jessica White look fascinating – ANZ LitLLovers
Split Tooth by Inuk throat singer Tanya Tagaq because Lovely Bookshelf describes it as ‘an experience’.
The Plaza by Julie Satow was on Musings of a Literary Wanderer’s NFN reading list.
A bunch from Mind Joggle‘s list – My Glory Was That I Had Such Friends by Amy Silverstein; Where the Angels Lived by Margaret McMullan; I Miss You When I Blink by Mary Laura Philpott.
I’m tempted by The Riviera Set: 1920 – 1960: The Golden Years of Glamour and Excess by Mary S Lovell on the strength of the cover alone – Books Please
Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe – Howling Frog Books and also on Doing Dewey
Plagued by Fire by Paul Hendrickson (always interested in Frank Lloyd Wright) – Sarah’s Book Shelves
Lastly, thank you to all the Nonfiction November hosts – it’s been fun! And thank you to everyone who took the time to comment on posts.
