[Eric Larson] does it again with [Dead Wake] by making non fiction read like fiction all the while providing a great amount of information. The research that he does before writing a book shows his deep passion fro the topics. In [Dead Wake] he informs the reader not only what is was like being on the Lusitania, but also the political intrigue that seemed to surround the voyage and it's demise.
  
A non fiction book that read more like a fiction novel. I learned so much about sushi and fish. I now have a much better understanding when I go to my local sushi restaurant. I enjoyed the characters and following their journey through sushi school. If you have any interest in sushi, pick this up. You learn the facts while getting to know the characters. best of both worlds.

As promised, my first book review of the New Year is for "Brides in the Sky" by Cary Holliday, which is a collection of mostly historical fiction short stories and a novella. If you ask me, shorter fiction is harder to write than novels, and you can find out if Holladay succeeded with this format on my new blog, here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/01/04/inconvenient-separations/

I love crime fiction and would live to connect with other people who enjoy thrillers. I will be doing regular reviews and read approximately one book per two weeks

That's my favorite genre as well. Have you checked out the Smashbomb bookclub orb might be a good way to come across more bookworm people?

Incredibly captivating book located in Europe during WWII. My love for fiction novels based on Nazi Germany will never cease.

"A classic direct-cinema documentary drama made with ordinary people, it demonstrated for me, early on, that even without celebrities documentaries can be as compelling as any fiction film."

"I can’t get enough of Pulp Fiction. I just love it; it still holds up. And it didn’t win Best Picture, by the way. Didn’t win. Speaking of crazy…"
