Overall, I’d like to read more non-fiction and I’m hoping that participating in this challenge will encourage me to do so. I’ve started each of these books before. I’ve leafed through each of them, been impressed by anecdotes in each of them, but while I rarely set aside a novel that I’ve begun (mainly because I’m choosy to start with…it’s not a firm philosophy or anything), I more-often-than-not set aside even the most compelling non-fiction that I pick up. Here’s to a new habit, though, one that I hope will stick.
Jared Diamond’s Guns, Germs and Steel (1997)
Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma (2006)
Norman Doidge’s The Brain That Changes Itself (2007)
