This year, between the two of us, we read some interesting and inspiring non-fiction that we thought we’d share with you! Some are “work”-related and some less so, but all of them made us think.
Our somewhat arbitrary list of good books
- Everyday Information Architecture (Lisa Maria Martin)
- Content Strategy for the Web, Second Edition (Kristina Halvorson & Melissa Rach)
- Building a StoryBrand: Clarify Your Message So Customers Will Listen (Donald Miller)
- Dreyer’s English: An Utterly Correct Guide to Clarity and Style (Benjamin Dreyer)
- How to Say It: Choice Words, Phrases, Sentences and Paragraphs for Every Situation (Rosalie Maggio)
- The Bullet Journal Method: Track the Past, Order the Present, Design the Future (Ryder Carroll)
- Thick: And Other Essays (Tressie McMillan Cottom)
- Mending Life: A Handbook for Repairing Clothes and Hearts (Nina and Sonya Montenegro)
- The New Plant Parent: Develop Your Green Thumb and Care for Your House-Plant Family (Darryl Cheng)
Your local library or book store may have many of these! Also, we really like Bookshop.org for any books you’d like to own a copy of. (They’re a good alternative to Amazon that instead supports independent book stores).
