I now know way more about elephants. This book was ok. I didn't see the plot twist coming, which was good. But I needed more story and less non-fiction.

I can seriously recommend The Return by Hisham Matar and Another Day in the Death of America by Gary Younge. A great mixed bag of non-fiction literature in this year's Orwell Prize longlist.

In this short non-fiction piece, Ozeki takes on the Zen exercise of staring at her face for three hours. Read my review of this interesting memoir here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/08/18/facing-three-hours/

I'm an avid reader, though my tastes have changed over time. I used to read true crime non fiction, but I have moved into mystery literature. (Though I don't typically read series.) I also love Margaret Atwood and Alice Munro.
