Overview

As a fiction girly I realise that I don't read nonfic nearly as much as I did when I was studying. Let's change that. Let's read some interesting nonfic! Stretch that brain muscle and do some critical thinking or relax and learn about something you've always wondered about. Goodluck! I feel like one nonfic a season is totally doable. You've got this!
