You guys, I had such a good time reading all the posts for this week’s Nonfiction November prompt, Be the Expert/Ask the Expert/Become the Expert. I’m sorry this wrap up is getting published so late, I had a crazy week and just finished commenting on the last post a few minutes ago.

Thanks to all who have participated so far! Next week’s host is Katie at Doing Dewey who will be asking about 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 favorites.

What a great list! And you’re not late in posting … especially since I just got around to finishing mine. (I may have been overthinking this a bit.) Looking forward to reading everyone’s picks!
What a diverse and interesting mix of topics. Thank you for compiling them altogether 🙂
Thank you for compiling this. It’s such a great way to find specific reads!
