I’m looking forward to that too. We tried to keep it pretty open-ended, so people could participate at whatever level they wanted while still getting to talk a lot about nonfiction.

She did! I got a horse doodle in my copy of The Scorpio Races, which I’m super excited about because it’s by far my favorite of her books. I’m completely fine with people not passing on the award, since award posts can be a lot of work, but it’s nice to have a chance to tell you you’re awesome anyway

Ahh, SO jealous you got to see Maggie Stiefvater! Did she doodle in your books? I hear she does that sometimes. Thank you so much for the award!! I’m crazy busy too, so it’s unlikely I’ll be able to officially accept it sadly, but it makes me so happy that you thought of me ^_^

I’ll probably keep reading my normal amount of non-fiction, but I’m particularly looking forward to the discussion posts. They seem like a great way to find more bloggers who read a lot of non-fiction and to get some more non-fiction recommendations

I used to not be willing to read ARCs if I had to get them as ebooks unless they were something I was really excited about, but I’ve gotten used to them enough that I don’t really care what format a book is in any more. I’m amazed at how well Star Trek has held up over the years! Despite some cheesy special effects, I’m still impressed by how creative the plot is in many episodes and I really like all of the main characters

Thank you for the nomination! I was glad to read your 7 random facts – it’s great you are appreciating ebooks – they make it easier to read more! And I really need to watch Star Trek (so I know what the fuss is about!) I’m glad that you are enjoying it, that motivates me more to finally watch it!

Thank you for the mention! I don’t normally do awards myself, but I do really appreciate being mentioned. And I’m glad you’re excited about Nonfiction November — Leslie and I are really looking forward to it too! I’m trying to finish The Goldfinch today so I can start in on some nonfiction tomorrow.
