I may be totally behind in blogging the books I've read for challenges, but that isn't going to slow me down from joining yet another challenge (or two). So in keeping with that, here's my entry into the Non-Fiction Five Challenge. Can't say I know everything I'll read for this one but since I can change my options at the drop of a hat (my kind of challenge!!!), I'm not going to worry about that. Tentatively I'll be reading Hamlet's Dresser by Bob Smith (memoir), Natasha's Dance by Orlando Figes (history), The White Masai by Corinne Hofmann (memoir), Singular Intimacies by Danielle Ofri (memoir), and The Lost Ravioli Recipes of Hoboken by Laura Schenone (memoir).

I have had to disable the anonymous comment option to cut down on the spam and I apologize to those of you for whom this makes commenting a chore. I hope you'll still opt to leave me your thoughts. I love to hear what you think, especially so I know I'm not just whistling into the wind here at my computer.
