This is the last week of Nonfiction November - this may only be my second time actually following through for all four weeks of this event. Which is great - because I discovered some amazing blogs and several excellent nonfiction titles this month. Doing Dewey is hosting the week and she's asking - 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! I picked up a ton of recommendations this month - these six are the ones I am most looking forward to reading. Pandemic Solidarity by Marina Sitrin and Rebecca Solnit - discovered over at Monika's Lovely Bookshelf - she has several similar books recommended in her post, and I'll admit I TBR'd almost all of them. Doughnut Economics by Kate Raworth - Unsolicited Feedback has several other books on this topic but this one in particular caught my eye. I Have Something to Tell You by Chasten Buttigieg - thi
Sheila @ One Persons Journey through a world of Books wants to know what we're reading. I'm only too happy to oblige!
The past week hasn't been great reading-wise. Blame it on the Fall shows, especially Vampire Diaries and Glee. Plus, I'm planning to add Person of Interest (Ben Linus, how I've missed you!) and Whitney.

Books on my nightstand
Two of the books on my nightstand are the same from last week - both are fabulous, and I'm hoping to finish them by middle of this week.
Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami: This is my first read (Ti's recommendation) for my Blogger Recommends feature. I'm only just halfway through this massive book, which is why it's taking me so long to read it but I just love it so much and can't wait to talk about it!.
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley: This is the other book I chose to read for this year's Banned Books Week. I found the first couple of pages of this book very hard to read, but after that, it has been an almost-smooth reading. It's pretty disturbing both in theme and in the writing - I could easily call it a Halloween read as well, even though it isn't really horror (or is it).
