Fiction/Nonfiction Book Pairing : This week, pair up a nonfiction book with a fiction title. It can be a “If you loved this book, read this!” or just two titles that you think would go well together. Maybe it’s a historical novel and you’d like to get the real history by reading a nonfiction version of the story.
I am going to manage to sneak in this post just in time before the week ends. I did not get this far last year because I struggled to come up with appropriate books to fit. This time too, I ended up reading non-fiction that fell under similar themes but I decided to instead pair non-fiction that I listed earlier with books that are borderline non-fiction. Once I narrowed that down, I found it easier to make the connections. I have linked the cover to the original reviews. In some cases, it might be the writing style, and in others the content itself.

If the history of Alzheimer’s is scary, but fascinating
Well done! Another very short and powerful novel on Alzheimer’s comes to mind: And Every Morning the Way Home Gets Longer and Longer, by Fredrik Backman

That’s interesting! It’s a scary disease and Backman does make me cry with the few books of his I have read 😅

Good pairings! I struggle with this one every year, and then I posted my two on Monday and promptly read a really good pair I could have used – so I’m writing up a post about them to use NEXT November!

This is a great take on this topic! Even though both of the books are nonfiction, they feel really different but linked.

The second books are fiction, just well researched/ based on true story type 😃
