    I have never commented on a CZcams video before, but your channel has brought so much joy to my life and has ignited my love for nonfiction to the point that I literally screamed when I saw this video. So many new goodreads suggestion for me thanks to this video. Please never stop making videos about non fiction!!!

    Me: Hmm I wish I had more nonfiction recs to go through.

    This magnificent haul reminds me that we're only a few months away from Nonfiction November!

    I found your channel about a month ago and I just can’t stop watching. You’ve fostered a desire to read more nonfiction and I’ve added so many books to my TBR! I also read I am I am I am recently and it was fantastic. I can’t stop thinking about that memoir since I read it a few weeks ago!

    I added, once more, so many books to my TBR watching your videos! You really rekindled my love for non fiction! Thank you so much!!

    I love watching your hauls, I know I'll always find books to add to my TBR shelf and your excitement is catching . I am really curious about the Botany books you mentioned as they sound interesting. I have always found animals as well as plants interesting and there was a time when I thought about becoming a Botanist or Marine Biologist. Even though my career of being a Botanist or Marine Biologist didn't happen, I do still have a love of learning about plants and living vicariously through those who have made a successful go at those careers or just love sharing their understanding of plants and animals. Happy Reading!

    HOLY HAUL, BATMAN! What a gold mine! I'm a little bit jealous and very much in awe.

    The best haul ever. Oliver Sacks in particular, I have enjoyed almost every book of his I’ve ever read.

    Great book haul! I've read and loved The Evolution of Beauty, She Has Her Mother's Laugh and A Room of One's Own. And yay, more bird books for my TBR! I can never have too many of those.

    Always intrigued with your choices. I also have The Reason for Flowers to read and can't wait to hear your review when you get to it.

    So many interesting books there! I bought The Secret Lives of Colour recently on a trip to the Art Gallery of New South Wales. I flipped through it on the train on the way home but haven’t settled down to reading it properly. I couldn’t resist that spotty textured cover.

    I loved Cork Dork and can’t wait to hear your thoughts of the wine books you brought. Great haul!

    John Berendt has written a book about birds called My Baby Blue Jays. It appears to be a photo essay of a nest of blue jays outside his window! Would be an obscure addition to your bird book collection! Lots of interesting titles in this haul. Will join in for October’s NF read!

    Nearly every nonfiction book you haul ends up on my TBR. You are bad for my wallet, but wonderful for my brain.
