This post is all about non-fiction, and I do love some non-fiction. So let's give it up to some great genres in non-fiction.
I absolutely love Cookbooks and Memoirs, especially celebrity biographies. I have reviewed tons of cookbooks on the blog and only a few memoirs. 
There is one non-fiction memoir book that always sticks with me, and you may have heard me discuss it before. It's called, Life, In Spite of Me by Kristen Jane Anderson and Tricia Goyer. This is still one of the most powerful memoirs I have ever read. This girls' story of a suicide gone wrong, is truly incredible and inspiring. I highly recommend it to anyone, especially teen girls.

So not a very big post, I really only wanted to brag about one book. So tell me, what are your go-to non-fiction books???

    I really enjoy non-fiction now. I used to have a hard time picking any non-fiction book up, but once you kind of figure out what topics you're interested in, it becomes pretty natural. I've been having a ball with memoirs lately. And I love anything foodie related!

Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
