As always I've read the most about ancient history and classics!
Have you read any of the books I've featured? Have you read any nonfiction books this year?
Sex Scandals of Ancient Greece and Rome made me laugh. I had to look it up to see how long that audiobook was. I was surprised that it was only 3 hours. 😅
ReplyDeleteYes pretty short but good! They're more like lectures.
DeleteI am curious about Girl Power door. I will need to see if I can find it!
ReplyDeleteI know it's available in French and Dutch but I don't know if it's translated in other languages.
DeleteI'm seeing The Odyssey popping up on several lists. I would definitely want the modern retelling version if I were to read it again. ha. I still haven't seen the movie. "The Intimate Afterlife of Myth" sounds intriguing... Great list!
ReplyDeleteI love The Odyssey but the movie not so much hahaha
DeleteCongrats on reading 13 nonfiction books! I read a lot of history books too.
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
DeleteI'm not surprised you've read so much non fiction! I have read...zero. Lol. But there's always hope😁
ReplyDeleteI feel like it's such a low number but sometimes that's how it goes
DeleteGreat list. Almost all new-to-me titles. I'll definitely be checking some of them out.
ReplyDeleteI shall look for the new take on The Odyssey!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a great year of reading, Slay caught my eye and I’ve added it to my TBR.
ReplyDeleteHappy Nonfiction November, thanks for sharing.
The Odyssey is everywhere this year. I'd be interested in a modern retelling!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great line-up! I will be diving in and choosing 1 or 2 for my TBR list.
