Alice and the Giant Bookshelf | So Many Good Books! Wrapping Up All the Books I Read in November 2023 #booktube #nonfictionnovember @AliceandtheGiantBookshelf | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Hi everyone,
Today I'm talking about all the books I read in November! It was a really good reading month, quality wise. I really liked a lot of the books I read. I did DNF an audiobook, and I'm carrying on quite a few books into December.
I talked about Non-Fiction November, which is hosted by @abookolive.
I mentioned Jack @spreadbookjoy's review of The Skull by Jon Klassen, check that out here: youtu.be/WRJM2geNVdM?si=EuYsTT1bHZR7wk0L
I mentioned the Picturebook Makers blog, which can be found here: blog.picturebookmakers.com
I'd love to hear from you, what did you enjoy reading in November? Have you read any of these? Please vote in the comments, which book should I pick up for non-fiction November?
Thanks for watching.
