Nonfiction November 2020: Fiction/Nonfiction Book Pairings
It's Week 2 of Nonfiction November (this week is hosted by JulzReads), and this is my favorite week of the entire event - fiction/nonfiction book pairings! I love pairing books like this throughout the year. Here are the ones I've done this year:
I'm picking up The Season because I have been reading Georgette Heyer lately, so this felt like a good backstory. And I love deGrasse too (incl. his show at The NY Natural History Museum), so glad to see his mention here.
Happy NFN! My own post went here: https://lexlingua.co/nonficnov-week2-book-pairings/
This is always so much fun. When I look back over the year it's fascinating to see the pairs that emerge without my having consciously matched them up.
I’ve picked up Lady in Waiting, I read an interview with Anne Glenconner which was fascinating so I’m looking forward to reading the book. Happy reading!
It is a fun topic, though I don't read enough non-fiction to do it. Love your first pairing as I am a fan of Little White Lies. Rebel Belle could have fit there too
Ooh I love fiction/nonfiction pairings! The Ship of Dreams is one I still really want to read, as are the Princess Margaret books! Really curious about Light from Other Stars also.

I've really enjoyed deGrasse's last two books!
DeleteBoth of those Titanic books are on my TBR list because the Titanic is endlessly fascinating to me.

ReplyDeleteI always love looking for those threads, how I can match up the real-life person or situation with a fictionalized version!

ReplyDeleteIt was such an interesting read! Thanks, Heather!
DeleteOoo I just checked out The Deep, I will have to remember your pairing!

DeleteNice combos! I like that first one, and The Deep had me intrigued also...
ReplyDeleteGreat pairings. I love how well the debutante covers work together. The Deep is on my list to read.
