Current read...this year I'm trying to read more non-fiction and autobiographies. Very well researched.

Interesting and fun history of one of NYs renowned buildings. I never realized so many unexplainable and haunted history it had. Good time reading!
I was drawn to this book due to my having recently read 3 Fiona Davis HF novels. Some of the historical chapters were long-winded but the most glaring thing is its outdatedness. C. 1979!! which was just before Lennon's murder outside the Dakota's entrance; already 38 years ago
Today‘s Kindle deals, at least in the US, feature nonfiction titles. I grabbed this one!
My family and I go to NYC at the end of every summer and I enjoy reading books in or about the city during the lead up. This one was pretty good. Interesting tidbits about a great old building which I pass often when I‘m in town. But, some chapters were more engaging than others to me, therefore I‘m giving this one a so-so
#nonfiction2018 This was an interesting read, full of fun little tidbits and historical facts. I wanted to read it because on my trips to NYC, I love to take a taxi to the Dakota, stare in awe at its beauty, then cross the street into Central Park and directly to Strawberry Fields. Now, I know more about the history and inner workings of this landmark building that somehow always seems to persevere.
Starting a new book, my first #nonfiction book of the year. I‘m going to NYC next month, do I thought this one was a good pick. #nonfiction2018
