Nonfiction Reading

I spent the last few days tackling some nonfiction. I am almost finished reading Damned, which has been a blast, but it is important to add nonfiction to the daily consumption of reading. Why? I don't know, it just is. Life would be so much easier if those answers were accepted. Nonfiction reading is a different beast than fiction and forces the mind to make different types of inferences. It also trains the mind to memorize facts. I still take notes while reading books like this if I do not plan on reading the material more than once. I have read Moneyball, a nonfiction tale of sabremetrics in baseball, three times within the year. Why? The ideas and facts in the story are amazing and interesting and garner so much debate. The key to nonfiction is picking a great topic to read. When that happens, mere facts and opinionzs can exhilarate a mind like any novel of fiction. I have been reading a biography on Shakespeare. Those of you who know me recognize the love I have for the works of William Shakespeare. After watching the movie Anonymous, I have amped up my search to discover the true identity of the great writer.
