We’ve reached week five of Nonfiction November and I’m sharing the books I’ve added to my TBR. The OC BookGirl asks
“It’s been a month full of amazing nonfiction books! Which ones have made it onto your TBR? Be sure to link back to the original blogger who posted about that book!”
This month got busy so I haven’t made the rounds as much as I would have liked but I did add several books.

Haha, this event is so tough on the TBR! Even just looking at your lovely mosaic of covers makes me want to add more books to mine 🙂
I haven’t heard of most of these books, which is why I love Nonfiction November! Adding some to my TBR pile.
Great selections, I hope you have the opportunity to enjoy them!
I added Tunnel 29 to my TBR as well… picked up the ebook as a daily deal, so I’m ready to go. Hope you love Infinite Country, too. It will be one of my favorite novels of the yeat.
Pandora’s Lab is one of Offit’s I haven’t read yet, but glad I could point you in his direction – I’ve loved everything else by him! Glad I could recommend you Gory Details and Tunnel 29 too, both are so good!
I need to look for Pandora’s Lab, I think. It looks like a book I would enjoy.
I also fell a bit behind – in fact, I see a book on your list that I missed and now want to add to my list. LOL. The Whale in the Living Room.
I am so excited you added two of my books! Lol. I hope you loved them as much as I did!
I also added 3 books recommended by Erin:
