Top Ten Tuesday: Ten Hidden Gem Non-Fiction Reads 29/8/17



Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. This feature was created because they are particularly fond of lists over there at The Broke and the Bookish. I'd love to share my lists with other bookish folks and would LOVE to see your top ten lists!


I've been on such a non-fiction kick this summer and so I am please to share with you some of my favourites. I don't look upon these as hidden gems because I'm particularly taken with these books but often when I mention them to other people, they haven't heard of them, so...


I read this very recently and it so much much more than the subtitle! It has so any facts and figures but all of them centred around opinions which was really interesting. 


I loved this read so much and I think that now James Corden has made it big in America, its kind of been forgotten about. I've mentioned this one a few times recently so that must mean I'm due for a re-read!


This was another recent read and another new release but I haven't heard anyone else talking about this one. I gave a mini review of it on my channel...


Another recent release and by a big online personality but, again, I haven't spoken to many other people who have read or own this! I also made a video about this one on my channel because it was just so beautiful!


I loved this read so much and again is was so much more than what it suggests on the cover. I learned a lot about the publishing industry, about motherhood and about living your best life!


This was such a funny read. A lot of the material in here shows up in her comedy shows and so if you've seen those you'll get the general feel of this book. Again, I haven't heard many people talking about this book and it was a real treat to read!


Again a new release that I haven't seen many people online reading. I know that a few of the essays in this book will be ones I will re-read. A few of them also introduced me to new 'unruly women'. 



This book is not just about Starbucks! I think that's all I need to say really...



Another collection of stories, concerning lots of different aspects of being an American housewife. This is really a mixture of fiction and non-fiction but I read this all in one sitting and so it definitely needs some more spotlight!


I loved this listen and there was a lot of hype surrounding the paperback but the audiobook is AMAZING! And this also taught me a lot about being a woman in the media and being a mother, I loved it. 




Again there was a lot of hype around this book when it first came out but it seems to have disappeared from everywhere. This was another read that I devoured in one sitting. It is an honest and moving account and definitely something I wish I'd read when I was younger!
