In true Donoghue fashion an innocent booktag was turned into a caustic rant about society, fame, and politics! (And I loved every minute of it and agreed with every word.) Preach brother Steve, Preach!
I was hoping you would do this tag. I thought your answer for number 6 "The ONE non-fiction book that defines the decade, ..." was going to be "So you have been publicly shamed" by Jon Ronson. Also, in regards to celebrity books/memoir, I remember you once recommending quite some time ago "Nevertheless" by Alec Baldwin. Has this book held up in your eyes as time has passed? In other words would you still recommend it?
Gardening!? Weren't you learning stuff about gardening [from a book]? And what happened to that? Plus, I think the question could mean learning in the wider sense of acquiring knowledge by reading History, Travel, Science, etc.

Am I at risk of gaining a REPUTATION? As somebody who MUTATES innocent tags?
Loved this one Steve! I'm willing to read basically any genre except self-help and pretty much for the same reasons.
You are hysterical, Steve. I totally hear you on the gratitude for every day, especially each day with books in it.
Here’s hoping that you’re right about the 2020’s!
I am so used to reading nonfiction for my classes that I find it harder to read fiction recently. I love your nonfiction videos!
"interpretation of dreams" Dr. Freud the greatest!
Thank you so much for the tag, Steve! Can’t wait to get to this one :D
Thanks for the tag, Steve! I’ve been giving this one some thought, but it’s a hard one.

I'm enjoying Elton John's memoir at the moment. It's great as an audiobook.
Rarely read celeb memoirs as a rule.
Huh. I’ve never even heard of Joey Graceffa. Apparently he’s written or co-written an entire series at this point.
Thank you.
I thought you would say that the book that defines the decade is the Art of the Deal.
haha or Fear Trump in the Whitehouse by Bob Woodward
Which I always think of as Fear and loathing in the Whitehouse

Joey from the amazing race wrote a book? MORE THAN ONE!?
This decade.... 🤦🏻♂️
Hope the 20’s are roaring!
