2019 is a year I’m trying to truly take up the adjective ‘eclectic’ so reading non-fiction books is a part of this. Which led me into searching for titles releasing in 2019 that will help me in this yearly goal of mine.

I’m definitely someone who talks about reading different genres/nonfiction and doesn’t so I added some of these to my wishlist. These are great recommendations 🙂

This was a great list! The Dark Fantastic sounds really interesting, especially since it mentions Harry Potter and The Hunger Games on the cover — two books that deeply impacted me as a child. I can’t wait to get a hold on the book now — and I’m looking forwards to reading whatever reviews you write for these books in the future! 😊
