Another challenge!!

I was so excited to read about the Non-Fiction 5 Challenge over on Stephanie's blog. I'm a big non-fiction fan, so you know I can't pass this one up. The idea is pretty simple -- just read 5 non-fiction between May and September. One of the 5 has to be a different genre from the rest. For example, you could have 4 histories and 1 art critism. I couldn't pick just 5, so I have 5 and 3 extras. And, I only let myself pick books that are on my home bookshelf, instead of picking from my library TBR like I've done for other challenges. So, without further adieu, here's my list:

Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim by David Sedaris

How to Be Idle: A Loafer's Manifesto by Tom Hodgkinson

The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir by Bill Bryson

The Trial of Queen Caroline: The Scandalous Affair that Nearly Ended a Monarchy by Jane Robins

What Southern Women Know (That Every Woman Should): Timeless Secrets to Get Everything you Want in Love, Life, and Work by Ronda Rich

And my extras:

Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia by Elizabeth Gilbert

Night by Elie Wiesel

Running with Scissors: A Memoir by Augusten Burroughs
