Nonfiction November 2020: Fiction/Nonfiction Book Pairings

  1. 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/

  6. 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.

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

  7. 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!

  9. 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
