Last week got away from me! My husband had to work a million zillion hours and it was me and the five year old ALL WEEK and WEEKEND… so not much mommy alone time, and when I did get it, I was zonked. I hope to catch up on reading everyone’s posts this week. I have really enjoyed reading everyone’s nonfiction loves this month, and can’t wait for next year!
You have some great titles. Thanks for sharing!

I first read Blue Highways right after it was published, and it made a huge impact on me. It reminded me that it is important to talk to others, especially here in America. It’s a book I want to reread one of these days.

I didn’t take part in Nonfiction November this year (it just wasn’t the right time for me, unfortunately) but I have been loving these wrap up posts and getting lots of recommendation – you’ve some great titles included.
I actually recently purchased The Cottingley Secret by Hazel Gaynor, and look forward to getting to it soon.
I hope you have been able to enjoy some good nonfiction this month.

I loved both Fathoms and In the Kingdom of Ice, so I’m excited to see them on your list! I’ve also enjoyed several of Simon Winchester’s books, but haven’t yet read Atlantic, so I’ll have to add that to my list too 🙂

I am really looking forward to all three! Atlantic seems like it will be a commitment so I am waiting until I feel like I can make that commitment. Lol.
