Happy Tuesday! As you can expect from me, I changed up this week’s TTT topic. I just wasn’t feeling a rehash of books I read in my long ago classes, so I’ve created a list of books I would include as supplemental reading for dusty college classes 😉 . At least that’s how I view them now from a lens that is *ahem* 40+ years old. Please note that I am all for reading the facts, but a little entertainment is always a good addition. I hope you find a book that sparks your imagination.

Thank you! ❤️
The American Queen sounds very interesting.
What a great topic! How much better would some classes be with these? I was fortunate that I had professors who DID assign fiction to with the “facts” (though I thought I’d never live thru Asimov’s Foundation Trilogy–I still hate sci fi lol)
😂
Fun post! I love it. I haven’t read any of these, so thanks for the recs.
Happy TTT!

Interesting take on this week’s topic. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
This is such an interesting take on this topic! I haven’t heard of any of these books before, so I’ll look into them 🙂

I like your twist on the topic. I think historical fiction can be enlightening, and reading it as part of a course where you could discuss the facts that the author “got wrong” could be cool. I hope you have a great weekend.
