Today, I’m highlighting three books on my TBR. I’ve said before that I want to read more non-fiction this year and while I haven’t stuck with my one non-fiction book a month idea, I have added several to my list. Let’s take a look.
Cabinet of Roman Curiosities: Strange Tales and Surprising Facts from the World’s Greatest Empire by JC McKeown – I love strange facts about ancient Rome and this one promises to provide me with facts for days about Roman life, superstitions, and customs.
Without Reservations: The Travels of an Independent Woman by Alice Steinbach – This one appealed to me because her travels are centered in Europe. It’s also got a bit of the finding yourself theme that I don’t so much like but I think I can look past that to enjoy the travel part.
Turn Right at Machu Picchu: Rediscovering the Lost City One Step at a Time by Mark Adams – We live near the Peruvian embassy in DC. Right now they have banners up celebrating the discovery of Machu Picchu and the photos on the banners make me want to get on a plane. I also have a friend that hiked the trail this year so there are many reasons this one appeals.
Anything interesting on your list?
