And just like that it’s December again!
November was a great reading month for me, even though I didn’t manage to read all the books on my TBR for Nonfiction November. My favorite of the month was The Moon by Rebecca Boyle. It ended up as an unexpected favorite and those are the best!

Have you read any of these books?
What was your favorite book of the month?
I always imagine non fiction takes more time to read, so considering that, you had a fantastic month!
It does. And Nexus took me a while to read because of the heavy themes. But I’m glad, overall!
What a great month! I find I read nonfiction slower than fiction, so I didn’t get to as many books in November as I wanted to, either!
Nexus put me behind on schedule 😂
I read a single nonfiction book in November and it took me aaaall of November XD It was not a fave.
I’m happy to hear you had a great nonfiction November (even if you didn’t get to read all of the books on your TBR, I’m happy to hear you enjoyed most of these!)
It looks like a pretty successful Nonfiction November! I hope December is good to you.
11 books that’s great!
Great month, with some interesting nonfiction.
