What I read in 2024: Nonfiction November 2024, Week 1

What I read in 2024: Nonfiction November 2024, Week 1

I truly cannot believe that it is (almost) November once again! It doesn’t feel real that Nonfiction November 2024 has already come around, but I’ll never pass up an opportunity to tell you about my favorite books.

Our prompt this week is from Heather at Based on a True Story, who asks what books we’ve read this year and what our favorites were.

My “read” list for this year wins the award for my shortest list yet! Like I said, this year has flown by and I’ve felt that I haven’t had much time or energy for reading. The upside is that I didn’t waste any time on books I didn’t like. For that reason, it’s hard to pick a favorite. If I had to, I would say my favorites have been Disability Visibility and Inventing Reality. I can’t wait to dive into these two books more during weeks three and four!

In the meantime, I’d love to know what nonfiction books you’ve read this year or if there are any you have your eye on. If you write a blog post for this Nonfiction November 2024 prompt, don’t forget to link up on Heather’s post!

    Many forget that the contemporary state of Israel is rooted in the aftermath of the Holocaust. During the Holocaust the Jews had no place to take shelter and even the US sent whole shiploads of Jews back to Germany to end up in the dead camps. After the war they said ” Never again” and big parts of the Jewish diaspora moved back to their place of origin.

    I loved The Warmth of Other Suns a few years ago, and Caste is on my must read list for 2025.
