Thank you for all these amazing recommendations, some of these I can't wait to read! My favourite nonfiction book is 'A Brief History of Humankind' by Yuval Harari - although I'm not sure if it's right up your alley. But I found the writing style really easy to read and quite entertaining for such a book. If the topic sounds interesting to you, I'd definitely recommend it ❤
Given you liked humanities nonfiction my two recs are: On savage shores by Caroline Dodds pennock - about Indigenous peoples from the Americas who travelled to Europe and what we can find of their stories and voices in the archive Female husbands by Jen Manion - about afab people who at some point in their life married as a man and it’s just a really interesting reflection on queerness and transness in history
You should read Sharon MacMahon's new book The Small and the Mighty. It's about unsung American heroes through history. I bought it in September when it came out, but I haven't had a chance to finish it yet.
Makes me wanna start reading more non-fiction!
Yes!! There’s some good ones out there! I think it’s just about finding what kind you like so that it’s not super boring hahah
