Reading Nonfiction: Notice & Note Stances, Signposts, and Strategies | Robert E. Probst, Kylene Beers

Hi Litsy! So I went a little crazy during nonfiction November, and over half the books I read were nonfiction. Since then, I've made more of an effort to explore these books.

I'm inviting anyone who wants to join me to read 1 nonfiction book per month in 2017. Any type of nonfiction counts: biographies, history, science, memoirs, etc.

Use the tag #nonfictionchallenge17 and tag me if you wish. (I'd love to see what everyone is reading!) Thanks!

Nat_Reads Great idea!!! 8y

AmandaL This is a great idea! 👍 8y

Reecaspieces I am in!!! I love biographies 8y

kricheal I'm in! 8y

MaleficentBookDragon I'm in 8y

HardcoverHearts I'm in. I especially want to focus on political books because of president-elect-who-shall-not-named. I am interested in looking back at successful protest and resistance movements through time. 8y

Megabooks @Nat_Reads @AmandaL @Reecaspieces @Owlizabeth @jessdean @erinreads @shanebeth @Cinfhen @bookdrunkard78 @Emiller @Bookzombie @kricheal Woo hoo!! I'm so excited! 🎉🎉 8y

Megabooks @MaleficentTheBookDragon Yay! 📚👍🏻 8y

Megabooks @HardcoverHearts I have a bunch of politics/history ones in my stack as well. Right now I'm reading a book about international politics/laws (or lack thereof), but I plan on reading domestic books too. Thanks for joining in! 8y

Megabooks @ApoptyGina69 Yes! New Year, new picture! 💁🏻 8y

BookishFeminist Count me in 😂 #TheYearofMagicalReadingChallenges. I won't say no to one this year 8y

MicheleinPhilly I'm in! My NF numbers for this year were abysmal. Life made it hard for me to read about real life this year. I just wanted to escape into fiction. 8y

Leelee.reads I've appreciated all the non-fiction you've exposed me to. My TBR is more balanced now, thanks to your posts! 8y

Megabooks @BookishFeminist I love how you always make me crack up!! 😂😂😂 Glad you're in 😃😃 8y

Megabooks @MicheleinPhilly Yay! Glad you're in 😃😃 It was weird for me; the worse things got, the more I wanted to read nonfiction! 8y

Megabooks @Leelee.reads Thank you so much! That compliment means a lot to me. 😊😊 8y

mhillis Great idea! I have a lot of nonfiction that I want to read at this point! 8y

Joybishoptx I just made this a goal for myself! So I'm for sure in! 😻 8y

jessdean Just looked thru my titles for the 3 challenges I'm doing & I've got 12😃 plus there's at least 4 more I would like to read as well. So excited for 2017 reading😁📚📚📚 8y

LeahBergen I really need to get in on this. 👍🏼 8y

Megabooks @mhillis @Joybishoptx @jessdean @LeahBergen Awesome!! So glad you're joining me!! 👏🏻📚😃 8y

mllemay Good plan! I'll try it out :) 8y

CherylDeFranceschi Yay! I love this challenge! 8y

Debiw781 I may try this one! 8y

NatalieR Count me in! I realize I've been drawn to reading a lot more nonfiction too. 📖 8y

Megabooks @mllemay @CherylDeFranceschi @Debiw781 @NatalieR Fantastic!! So excited to have you join me!! 📚🎉🥂 (edited) 8y

Redy2trvl Such a great challenge! Years ago I had a rule that I would read 1 nonfiction per 3 fiction. I've been breaking that rule for a long time now. Great idea! 8y

Megabooks @Redy2trvl I had that rule a few years ago too, and I've been glad to get back to nonfiction. I hope you enjoy it! 😊😊 8y

Marchpane LOVE IT. I'm gonna try to participate (may not manage every month, but any increase in non-fiction reads I'll count as a win). 8y

Megabooks @Marchpane Great!! Not every month is totally ok. I hope you find some great books! 8y

Linda906 I'm in! Just discovered that I prefer reading fiction books and listening to non-fiction audiobooks. I have a long commute on public transportation, so I like to do a little of both. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else chooses! 8y

TheBookDream Sounds good to me! 8y

Megabooks @Linda906 @TheBookDream Glad to have you on board! 📚😃 And nonfiction audiobooks are great! 8y

M-D Non fiction is what I mostly read or listen to with some fiction in between for buffers 😃. I think out of the 11 books I've read this year 7 of them have been non fiction. 8y

Megabooks @M-D Please tag me with what you read! I love finding new books! I've read 14 books this month and 7 of them have been NF! 8y

Challenge Accepted: A Finnish Immigrant Response to Industrial America in Michigan's Copper Country | Gary Kaunonen

Call me crazy (you'd probably be right) but I'm going to try and work this in along with the other challenges! 😉 #readharder2017 #bookriot

HardcoverHearts I already have my ticket for that crazy train! 8y

SharonGoforth @HardcoverHearts 👊👍👍 8y

Owlizabeth Me too!! I figure there are going to be some overlaps 8y

TheCanuckReader Yay #bookchallengeaddicts unite! :) 8y

SharonGoforth @saresmoore @TheCanuckReader Absolutely! 8y

Abundance: A Novel of Marie Antoinette | Sena Jeter Naslund

Decisions made at 3am while organizing my bookshelves: "What the hell, I'll do the #LitsyAtoZ challenge. I don't have enough on my plate." ? I'm doing the #ReadHarder challenge & #LitsyReadingChallenge, too. Also my #30in30 birthday challenge. Going to cross-use books, though.

So, in the words of Joan Didion, I'm naming 2017 #TheYearofMagicalReadingChallenges. A/k/a: how I'm going to survive the first year of a trump presidency.

jessberk13, BookishMarginalia

LeahBergen I have to do my list still but I chose to go by title, too. And I'm also doing the Litsy Reads one. I'm thinking there will be overlap! 8y

LeahBergen Make that the #LitsyReadingChallenge. Oops! 8y

LeahBergen I've never tried #ReadHarder so I may feel the need to toss that one into the works. 😂 8y

NovelGirl82 ??? "How I'm going to survive the first year of a Trump presidency". I feel you on that! I haven't chosen any challenges to do for the new year, beyond how many books I read (which I do every year), so I may join in the AtoZ. 8y

WanderingBookaneer Is the 2017 Read Harder List out? 8y

NovelGirl82 Oh what the hell?! I'll join in on the #LitsyReadingChallenge as well! Might as well join the fun! 8y

BookishMarginalia Love the hashtag! And yes, crosspollinate the books among and between the challenges 👍🏼👏🏼 8y

jessberk13 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 8y

KarenUK Me too... going to try all those challenges too! Love the hash tag.... let's hope it is magical year of reading! 😍 8y

Theresa I'm going to do 3 of the 4 you're doing - skipping #30for30 because my #s would be quite a bit higher than 30. 😂 I want to see if it's possible to do all 3 from books I already own & with as few crossovers as possible. I wish the #ReadHarder list would come out already!! 😆 8y

Graciouswarriorprincess I am doing the same challenges except for #30for30 because I am like @Theresa. 8y

Soubhiville I was just trying to decide if I could cross use books to do multiple challenges at once, or if I should do one challenge first then start another 😊📚 I'm impressed with your list! Have fun! 8y

TheNextBook 😂😂😂 You will definitely have to cross read and there is nothing wrong with that. I need a break from challenges mext year. I'm still doing #keepingitshort and I'm challenging myself to clear the books I own that I havent read. 😏 That's going to be really hard when I'm constantly buying books. 8y

shelf-improvement Some great titles here! An amazing goal. Good luck. 📚 8y

LindsayReads YESSSSSSS TO ALL OF THIS. LET'S DO THIS. 😎 8y

RealLifeReading I just love your list! So many books there are already on my TBR!! I should make mine too 8y

Dvmheather I would never be able to stick to a plan like that. I get too distracted! 8y

Chessa Yessssss! 🙌🙌🙌 8y

DrexEdit In for a penny, in for a pound. By the end of this year I will either love or hate reading challenges! 😊 😊 👏👏👏💜 8y

Minispok Awesome list! 8y

avalonlovelee A visit from the goon squad 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 8y

Shortstack The second I saw this the Zelda book jumped to mind. I'm just debating if I want to commit to this or not. 8y

Shortstack If I do, I'm going to label my I as Infinite Jest 8y

AAdamson You're going to love A Constellation of Vital Phenomena! 8y

BookishFeminist @Shortstack You know you want to commit to this ? it'll help you push for your reading goal! And good call on Infinite Jest for "I"—I just grabbed books that are already on my shelves for this list but I'm sure there will be substitutions throughout the year as it progresses! I can't wait for our infinite jest readalong 8y

Shortstack @BookishFeminist oh, I already gave in. Also, I vote #InfiniteReadalong for our Foster-Wallace book since it reflects both the title and the length. 😂 8y
