Fiction and Non Fiction books

pinkchocoholic

Just a reminder which is which 

Fiction - Made-up stories, imagined worlds, and synthesized events.

Non Fiction - Real events, verified facts, and actual people.

I've noticed I have read more fiction books than non fiction books

I would like to read more non fiction books but unsure where to start, not sure what would interest me etc

Any non fiction books recommendations anyone else is appreciated Thumbsup

Plus if there's any fiction books that relate to non fiction books I'll give them a go (would be good to read nonfiction book them a fiction book based on it!)

  • There are some really good non-fiction books that almost read like fiction ones.

    I recommend reading biographies and, in particular, autobiographies, because these always tell a story. Reading them can feel similar to reading a fictional novel at times.

    Some history books can be similar. It doesn't have to be ancient history, there are lots of books on more recent events that are fun to read as well.

    Books on recent history that are fun to read, I think it depends on how old you are, but a lot of modern history is more like old news to me and when it's stuff I remember and the narrative around it has changed to a sort of official version then I get really cross as it often doesn't respect the way those events were lived.
