Truth is Stranger than Fiction
These books prove it
Looking for something a bit meatier than the average novel to wrap your mind around? Want to learn a little history or science as you enjoy a nearly unbelievable story?
Do you think non-fiction is dry compared to a novel? These titles will prove that wrong.
I find little else as satisfying as reading a well-researched and witty work of non-fiction and these 3 books provide all of that and some interesting facts as well.
“Say Nothing” by Patrick Radden Keefe
This mystery of a missing mother takes place in Northern Ireland in 1972. Written by Patrick Radden Keefe, a journalist and author, this story is haunting, shrouded in the tumultuous history of the region.
