Nonfiction November

Yay! It's back but I'm very much behind. But here's the schedule and the posts so I know have a link to them for future reference. I am definitely participating!


Hosted by Doing Dewey, Julz Reads, What's Nonfiction, Sarah's Book Shelves, and Shelf Aware.

Week 1: (Oct. 28 to Nov. 1) –  Yours truly will be hosting the kickoff – Your Year in Nonfiction : Take a look back at your year of nonfiction and reflect on the following questions – What was your favorite nonfiction read of the year? Do you have a particular topic you’ve been attracted to more this year? What nonfiction book have you recommended the most? What are you hoping to get out of participating in Nonfiction November?
Week 2: (Nov. 4 to 8) –  Sarah’s Bookshelves is back to host – Book Pairing: This week, pair up a nonfiction book with a fiction title. It can be a “If you loved this book, read this!” or just two titles that you think would go well together. Maybe it’s a historical novel and you’d like to get the real history by reading a nonfiction version of the story. SARAH
Week 3: (Nov. 11 to 15) – Katie at Doing Dewey is joining us again with – Be The Expert/Ask the Expert/Become the Expert: Three ways to join in this week! You can either share 3 or more books on a single topic that you have read and can recommend (be the expert), you can put the call out for good nonfiction on a specific topic that you have been dying to read (ask the expert), or you can create your own list of books on a topic that you’d like to read (become the expert). 
Week 4: (Nov. 18 to 22) – Leann from Shelf Aware is hosting for the first time – Nonfiction Favorites: We’ve talked about how you pick nonfiction books in previous years, but this week I’m excited to talk about what makes a book you’ve read one of your favorites. Is the topic pretty much all that matters? Are there particular ways a story can be told or particular writing styles that you love? Do you look for a light, humorous approach or do you prefer a more serious tone? Let us know what qualities make you add a nonfiction book to your list of favorite.
Week 5: (Nov. 25 to 29) – Rennie from What’s Nonfiction is here for a second year – New to My TBR : It’s been a month full of amazing nonfiction books! Which ones have made it onto your TBR? Be sure to link back to the original blogger who posted about that book!
This year we’ll also be bringing back an Instagram photo challenge for Nonfiction November, co-hosted by Julie(@JulzReads) and Leann (@Shelf_Aware_).   If you’re interested in participating in Nonfiction November but don’t have a blog, feel free to join us on Instagram and Litsy using the hashtag #NonficNov.
