Top Ten Tuesday-Top Nonfiction books from 2024

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is: Books I Never Reviewed (Share the titles of books you never reviewed on your blog/tiktok/insta/etc. and if you liked them or not!) Since I have started blogging I have reviewed all the books I have read. If I have not put them on my blog it's because they were either DNFs or books rated lower than 3 stars and I didn't like them. I don't think that list would be very interesting, nor worth spending time on, so I am going to go a different direction today. I am going to share my top ten nonfiction book from 2024.Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

  3. ADHD is awesome sounds like a good read.

  4. Nonfiction is like the hardest genre to review, because you can't discuss the things you can whilst reviewing fiction.

    1. Laurie, that's true, but you don't necessarily have to worry about spoilers either!

  6. Great list! I don't read a lot of non-fiction but these do look intriguing. Especially Tired of Being Tired caught my eye.

    1. Pam, I enjoyed reading The Diary of Anne Frank, so I am curious about The Betrayal of Anne Frank. Thanks for the suggestions.

  9. I need to read that The Cost of Control and I want to read the Bob Goff one. Also the 90 Days book about reading through the Bible. Actually, I might just copy the whole list.

  11. I read nonfiction sparingly, always trying to add more to my TBR shelf. ADHD is awesome is one that interests me. Nice list, Cindy.

  12. I read a fair amount of nonfiction last year, mostly thanks to being a CYBILS judge for a nonfiction category. I think my favorite NF from last year was THE ENIGMA GIRLS by Candace Fleming.

    Happy TTT!

  13. I've only gotten into nonfiction in the last few years, but it is so essential to helping me learn, since reading is always how I've learned best. As someone who was only just recently diagnosed with ADHD, I don't know how I haven't thought to start reading nonfiction about it, rather than just medical pages. I'll be starting with ADHD Is Awesome, so thank you for providing a jumping off point!

    1. Leah, ADHD is Awesome is a fabulous book! My daughter has it and it helped me understand her better, and the way she thinks. I hope you find it helpful.

  14. A few of those sound good! Sewing Happiness, the Dolly Parton, the ADHD, and the last Whimsy one could be interesting to me (or my daughter). Thanks for sharing!
