Underrated non-fiction stranger than fiction
Guys, I'm a total sucker for a good story, and these non-fiction books have absolutely blown me away. Seriously, they're stranger than anything I could dream up. We're talking serial killers lurking at world fairs, the secret lives of cadavers, and the mind-boggling world of neurologica

Non-fiction that’s stranger than most fiction
There is nothing better than a non fiction title that reads like a thriller and is completely immersive. These are a few that I will never stop recommending and why… These books?? Wild. Disturbing. Unbelievable. And the best part? Every single one of them is 100% real. ### Hidden Valley Road

These are gripping stories that happen to be 100% true. They are very well written true crime books that focus on telling a story rather than listing out facts. They are all bingeable, remarkable, and moving in their own way. I think it’s the perfect time of year to challenge yourself with nonficti
