This week's Nonfiction November prompt is to pair up nonfiction books with fiction books. Here are my pairs! 📚 Click the link in my bio to read the full post. #NonficNov #NonfictionNovember #Nonfiction #Fiction #BookPairings #Science #History #SciFi
If you enjoy #bookpairings - consider these!
Brown tells us that true belonging is being fully yourself wherever you go, and being able to stand alone. True belonging “doesn‘t require you to change who you are; it requires you to be who you are.” Meanwhile, fitting in is the opposite of belonging.
Tan explores this theme of belonging vs fitting in and I found a lot of parallel thoughts.
It‘s a good fiction/non-fiction pairing.
pickThis book was a surprise but in the best way. It was a quick read and perfect for summer and the beach but also tackled some real issues (rape culture, feminism, homophobia, and religion).
I was wondering if anyone else felt the connection to Educated by Tara Westover? I think these two books would make for a fascinating conversation. #bookpairings
pickWell, I just finished this book and I am highly recommending it. It is the story of General Dumas who was the son of a white man and enslaved Black woman who rose to the rank of Brigadier General in the 18th century France. This book is filled with history as it changes throughout the life of Dumas. Thoroughly researched and excellently told. I am so happy I learned of this man and his extroardinary life. Reading his sons book next! #bookpairings
I have taken to pairing books for reading. Does anyone else do this? I am truly enjoying the contrast between these two authors and styles. #bookpairings
This is me today! Book 1 of my #bookpairings. I plan on reading them back to back but reviewing them separately.
So I‘m starting something new next month, something I‘ve been wanting to do for quite some time. #bookpairings April will be too nonfiction books about the last slaves to arrive in the United States from Africa! I know a little bit about this story but not enough. One book has been out for a few years, the other is the Zora Neale Hurston book coming out soon! I‘m actually really excited about this.
Omigosh! You all must know by now how much I love #bookmates or #bookmatch or #bookpairings--AND I was just telling you about Arianna Rebolini, co-author of Public Relations and Editor of Buzzfeed Books! She just posted about this awesome article from the site, can't wait to dig into some of these books.

For all my Harry Potter fans you should try Erec Rex. This isn't my fav cover for the series but I really entitled this book. #bookpairings. #fallintobooks
Late #FallIntoBooks posts!
One of my favorite #bookpairings to do is pair books with an album or artist that gives me the same feel as the book (not necessarily a reading soundtrack). I'm pairing My Brilliant Friend with Parellel Lines by Blondie ❤ Headstrong female characters going through tough times in adolescence go so well together with this album!
Thinking of making this a weekly series - what do you think? #litsybooksandmusic !
